		Biochar Characterisation and Adsorption Data Analysis // A
		toolkit for analysing biochar characterisation and batch
		adsorption experiments. Provides functions to parse structured
		sample identifiers encoding pyrolysis conditions, read raw FTIR
		and XRD instrument output, compute adsorption capacity and
		removal efficiency, fit adsorption isotherms following Langmuir
		(1918) doi:10.1021/ja02242a004 and Sips (1948)
		doi:10.1063/1.1746922 among other models, fit adsorption
		kinetics following Ho and McKay (1999)
		doi:10.1016/S0032-9592(98)00112-5 and Chien and Clayton (1980)
		doi:10.2136/sssaj1980.03615995004400020013x among other models,
		fit batches of samples at once, compute van't Hoff
		thermodynamic parameters, baseline-correct and pick peaks in
		FTIR spectra, deconvolve XRD patterns into a crystallinity
		index, compute BET surface area following Brunauer, Emmett, and
		Teller (1938) doi:10.1021/ja01269a023, compute proximate and
		ultimate analysis summaries including directly from a
		thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) curve, compute a smoothed
		derivative thermogravimetric (DTG) curve and pick its
		decomposition peaks, fit non-isothermal decomposition kinetics
		from multi-heating-rate TGA data following Kissinger (1957)
		doi:10.1021/ac60131a045, build correlation matrices with
		p-values, and produce publication-style base-graphics figures
		including 600 dpi TIFF export. Built on base R ('stats',
		'graphics', 'grDevices') so it has no dependency on packages
		that require external CRAN network access to install.
