Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Redox

His primary areas of investigation include Biochar, Environmental chemistry, Agronomy, Soil water and Soil contamination. Biochar is the subject of his research, which falls under Pyrolysis. His Environmental chemistry research integrates issues from Metal, Soil respiration and Botany.

His work in Agronomy addresses issues such as Slash-and-char, which are connected to fields such as Nutrient, Crop yield, Alkali soil and Nutrient management. The concepts of his Soil water study are interwoven with issues in Paddy field, Rapeseed and Green manure. His work carried out in the field of Soil contamination brings together such families of science as Bentonite, Soil test, Soil quality and Clay minerals.

His most cited work include:

  • Pyrolysis temperature induced changes in characteristics and chemical composition of biochar produced from conocarpus wastes. (437 citations)
  • The relative adsorption selectivities of Pb, Cu, Zn, Cd and Ni by soils developed on shale in New Valley, Egypt (174 citations)
  • Effects of rapeseed residue on lead and cadmium availability and uptake by rice plants in heavy metal contaminated paddy soil. (156 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Biochar, Environmental chemistry, Soil water, Adsorption and Agronomy. His studies deal with areas such as Shoot and Nuclear chemistry as well as Biochar. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Soil test, Contamination, Soil contamination and Metal.

His research investigates the connection with Adsorption and areas like Aqueous solution which intersect with concerns in Sorption, Inorganic chemistry, Composite material and Nitrate. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Soil fertility, Slash-and-char, Nutrient and Saline water. His Pyrolysis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Carbon sequestration and Particle size.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochar (80.92%)
  • Environmental chemistry (68.70%)
  • Soil water (41.98%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Biochar (80.92%)
  • Environmental chemistry (68.70%)
  • Sorption (30.53%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Biochar, Environmental chemistry, Sorption, Adsorption and Soil contamination are his primary areas of study. Biochar is a subfield of Pyrolysis that Adel R.A. Usman tackles. Adel R.A. Usman interconnects Soil water and Clay minerals in the investigation of issues within Environmental chemistry.

Adel R.A. Usman has researched Soil water in several fields, including Wadi and Groundwater. Adel R.A. Usman has included themes like Precipitation and Nuclear chemistry in his Adsorption study. His research in Soil contamination tackles topics such as Leachate which are related to areas like Manure, Raw material, Dry matter, Chromium toxicity and Hexavalent chromium.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Competitive sorption and availability of coexisting heavy metals in mining-contaminated soil: Contrasting effects of mesquite and fishbone biochars. (21 citations)
  • Competitive sorption and availability of coexisting heavy metals in mining-contaminated soil: Contrasting effects of mesquite and fishbone biochars. (21 citations)
  • In situ immobilization of Cr and its availability to maize plants in tannery waste–contaminated soil: effects of biochar feedstock and pyrolysis temperature (8 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Carbon dioxide
  • Redox

Adel R.A. Usman mostly deals with Environmental chemistry, Biochar, Soil contamination, Metal and Soil water. His Environmental chemistry research includes themes of Adsorption and Sorption. The concepts of his Adsorption study are interwoven with issues in Kaolinite, Intercalation, Contamination, Clay minerals and Aqueous solution.

In his study, Adel R.A. Usman carries out multidisciplinary Biochar and Amendment research. Many of his studies on Soil contamination involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Dry matter. Adel R.A. Usman incorporates Metal and Bioavailability in his studies.
