The results of NTD method were in an agreement with data obtained by conventional active sampling methods using Tenax® sorbent tubes and polyurethane foam samplers, but with improvements of relative standard deviation, sensitivity, and sampling time. The results demonstrated that the NTD method is a simple, sensitive, effective, reusable, and inexpensive technique for sampling and analyzing SVOCs in the concentration range from 2 ng m-3 to 100 μg m-3 in air. The effectiveness of rice waste biochars on heavy metal and metalloid abatement and detoxification was investigated using comprehensive studies based on As and Cd immobilization, bioaccumulation in tubifex, and microbial community changes in contaminated sediment. The remediation effects of biochars produced at different pyrolytic temperatures (400-700 °C) were evaluated. Bioaccumulation of heavy metal and metalloid in the tubifex tissue and change of indigenous microbial community under treatment of different biochars were assessed. Biochars produced at 700 °C exhibited greater effect on decreasing the concentrations of As and Cd in aqueous phase, and TCLP extractable and bioavailable metal(loid) in solid phase of sediment. The concentration of As and Cd in water phase decreased by 26%-89% and 22%-71% under the treatment of straw biochar, and decreased by 13%-92% and 5%-64% under the treatment of rice husk biochar, respectively. As and Cd contents in the tubifex tissue were positively correlated with their concentrations in aqueous phase. High-temperature biochars significantly reduced metal(loid) bioaccumulation in tubifex. The richness and biodiversity of microbial community were both greater in all biochars remediated sediment compared to non-treated
