📄 Abstract（原文）
Engineered biochar is a promising carbon material for sustainable energy and environmental applications, yet its transition from laboratory-scale synthesis to commercial deployment remains constrained. Current developments largely relies on trial-and-error and heuristics-based approaches, making it difficult to establish synthesis-structure-performance relationships and posing reproducibility challenges across scales and locations. Recent years we have witnessed the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to navigate this complex design space. In this Perspective, we describe the landscape of this rapidly evolving field, including engineered biochars’ property prediction, metal/metalloid and organic pollutant adsorption, soil and agronomics, and functional- and catalysis‑based applications. Our critical assessment reveals that, AI methods are predominantly employed for predictive modeling, while experimental validation and data-guided engineered biochar design remain significantly underexplored (<5% of total studies). To address this concerning gap, we propose five actionable directions: (1) automated extraction of published data using large language models (LLMs), (2) analysis of complex multivariable interactions with supervised learning, (3) designing biochar with target properties through active learning, (4) augmenting characterization techniques with deep learning, and (5) automation of biochar production. We highlight methodological frontiers and opportunities for knowledge transfer among biochar technologies. Collectively, these directions outline a holistic AI-driven ecosystem for biochar science, enabling scalable translation from laboratory discovery to industrial deployment.
