This book chapter reviews the storm water reuse, harvesting issues, characterization of storm water, potential of reuse, and the quantity and characteristics of lignocellulosic biomass, and its modified products. Storm water is a resource that can help solve the global water scarcity problem. The pollutants such as heavy metals, organic pollutants, pathogens that exist in storm water, however, prevent it from becoming more readily used in drinking and other applications. Subsequently, the modifying techniques for biochar production involving various target contaminants removal will be presented. The application of biochar for storm water is also discussed in detail. Finally, conclusions and future perspectives on the sustainable application of biochar for storm water reuse will be showed.
