Biochar is well known as an effective means for soil amendment, and modification on biochar with different methods could improve the benefits for environmental remediation. In this study, two modified biochars were generated with nitric acid (NBC) and hydrogen peroxide (OBC) pretreatment, and a control biochar was produced after washing with deionized water (WBC). The dynamics of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), iron concentration and bacterial community in rice paddy soil amended with different biochars or without adding biochar (CK) were studied during 70 days of anaerobic incubation.
