Resource utilization of chicken manure to produce biochar for effective removal of levofloxacin hydrochloride through peroxymonosulfate activation: The synergetic function of graphitization and nitrogen functionality. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 309:136419.

Abstract
Transforming hazardous livestock manure into biochar as an advanced oxidation processes catalyst is a two-in-one strategy to treat waste by waste. In this work, a self-modified biochar catalyst obtained from chicken manure is developed for peroxymonosulfate activation to degrade levofloxacin hydrochloride. The deterioration rate of levofloxacin hydrochloride reached 89% in 40 min, after three cycles of the catalyst, the LFX still maintained 52% degradation rate. And under low levofloxacin hydrochloride concentration, the degradation rate can reach 99% within 40 min. Apart from catalyst characterization and optimization, the effects of catalyst, peroxymonosulfate, levofloxacin hydrochloride, co-existing anions, and natural organic matter concentrations during the reaction are investigated. Additionally, the quenching experiments and electron spin resonance spectroscopy both reveal the reaction mechanism. As the graphitic nitrogen combined with the sp2-hybridized carbon in biochar was highly electronegative, thus appealing electrons from neighboring carbon networks, making the adjoining carbon atoms to be positively charged, which facilitated the degradation process. The oxidative degradation of levofloxacin hydrochloride was ascribed to non-radical routes including surface-bound radicals, h+ and 1O2 mediated oxidation, the contribution rates were 91%, 93.5%, and 96.8%, respectively. Moreover, possible degradation pathways of levofloxacin hydrochloride are studied by Density Functional Theory (DFT) and LC-MS analysis. This work provides a novel method to produce chicken manure biochar by self-modified chicken manure during biochar pyrolysis for peroxymonosulfate activation in organic contaminations abatement and reveals the combined effect of graphitization and nitrogen functionalization while providing new ideas for the resource utilization of chicken manure.

Carbothermal Synthesis of Sludge Biochar Supported Nanoscale Zero-Valent Iron for the Removal of Cd 2+ and Cu 2+: Preparation, Performance, and Safety Risks. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:16041. [PMID: 36498112 PMCID: PMC9740856 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph192316041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2022] [Revised: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 11/28/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The practical application of nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) is restricted by its easy oxidation and aggregation. Here, sludge biochar (SB) was used as a carrier to stabilize NZVI for Cd2+ and Cu2+ removal. SB supported NZVI (SB-NZVI) was synthesized using the carbothermic method. The superior preparation conditions, structural characteristics, and performance and mechanisms of the SB-NZVI composites for the removal of Cd2+ and Cu2+ were investigated via batch experiments and characterization analysis. The optimal removal capacities of 55.94 mg/g for Cd2+ and 97.68 mg/g for Cu2+ were achieved at a Fe/sludge mass ratio of 1:4 and pyrolysis temperature of 900 °C. Batch experiments showed that the SB-NZVI (1:4-900) composite had an excellent elimination capacity over a broad pH range, and that weakly acidic to neutral solutions were optimal for removal. The XPS results indicated that the Cd2+ removal was mainly dependent on the adsorption and precipitation/coprecipitation, while reduction and adsorption were the mechanisms that play a decisive role in Cu2+ removal. The presence of Cd2+ had an opposite effect on the Cu2+ removal. Moreover, the SB-NZVI composites made of municipal sludge greatly reduces the leaching toxicity and bio-availability of heavy metals in the municipal sludge, which can be identified as an environmentally-friendly material.

Abstract
Antibiotics have been a primary environmental concern due to their widespread dispersion, harmful bioaccumulation, and resistance to mineralization. Unfortunately, typical processes in wastewater treatment plants are insufficient for complete antibiotic removal, and their derivatives in effluent can pose a threat to human health and aquatic communities. Adsorption and photocatalysis are proven to be the most commonly used and promising tertiary treatment methods. Carbon-based materials, especially those based on graphene, carbon nanotube, biochar, and hierarchical porous carbon, have attracted much attention in antibiotic removal as green adsorbents and photocatalysts because of their availability, unique pore structures, and superior physicochemical properties. This review provides an overview of the characteristics of the four most commonly used carbonaceous materials and their applications in antibiotic removal via adsorption and photodegradation, and the preparation of carbonaceous materials and remediation properties regarding target contaminants are clarified. Meanwhile, the fundamental adsorption and photodegradation mechanisms and influencing factors are summarized. Finally, existing problems and future research needs are put forward. This work is expected to inspire subsequent research in carbon-based adsorbent and photocatalyst design, particularly for antibiotics removal.

Abstract
In this study, Fe-Co-modified biochar (FMBC) loaded with iron (Fe) and cobalt (Co) bimetals after NaOH activation was prepared by pyrolysis using forestry waste cedar bark as a raw material to study its properties and the adsorption of ofloxacin (OFX). The surface structure and chemical properties were analyzed by BET, SEM-EDS, XRD, XPS, and FTIR characterization, and the results showed that the FMBC possessed a larger specific surface area and abundant surface functional groups. FMBC conformed to pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models, indicating that the OFX adsorption process on FMBC was a monolayer adsorption process and controlled by chemisorption. The saturation adsorption capacity of FMBC was 10 times higher than that of cedar bark biochar (BC). In addition, the effects of initial pH and coexisting ions on the adsorption process were investigated, and FMBC showed good adsorption, with the best adsorption capacity at pH = 7. Multiple adsorption mechanisms, including physical and chemical interactions, were involved in the adsorption of OFX by FMBC. TG, metal leaching, different water sources, and VSM tests showed that FMBC had good stability and was easily separated from water. Finally, the reusability performance of FMBC was investigated by various methods, and after five cycles it could still reach 75.78-89.31% of the adsorption capacity before recycling. Therefore, the FMBC synthesized in this study is a promising new adsorbent.

Abstract
This study proposes a new method to promote the granulation process while accelerating the degradation efficiency of nutrients. The new strategy could involve preparing Fe-loaded activated carbon (FAC) before start-up of granular cultivation and then cultivating the process of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) with such materials. In addition, this experiment could further comprehend how the preparation and characteristics of FAC affect the formation and properties of AGS. The conclusions showed that compared with the control, FAC enhanced the sedimentation performance and significant removal efficiency. Meanwhile, the values of protein (PN) and polysaccharide (PS) also increased significantly in the addition of FAC, indicating the production of substances were induced by FAC. Molecular biology methods indicated that the rapid production of granulation and removal of nutrients were considered as the abundance of various microbes and denitrifying bacteria at the addition of FAC. This research showed that the presence of FAC is a useful strategy for the initiation of sludge particle formation to promote the treatment of wastewater, containing COD and NH4+ at about 150-100 and 30 mg L-1.

Abstract
Sewage sludge (SS) is increasingly used as an environment functional material to reduce or control pollution and improve plant growth because of the large amounts of carbon and essential plant nutrients in it. To achieve the best application results, it is essential to comprehensively review recent progress in SS utilization. This review aims to fill the gaps in knowledge by describing the properties of SS, and its usage as adsorbents, catalysts and fertilizers, and certain application mechanisms. Although SS generates several benefits for the environment and humans, many challenges still exist to limit the application, including the risks posed by potentially toxic substances (e.g., heavy metals) in SS. Therefore, future research directions are discussed and how to make SS applications more feasible in terms of technology and economy.

Abstract
A renewable tri-metallic spinel decorated biochar adsorbent (MZF-BC) was fabricated by a facile hydrothermal method and to remove tetracycline. The physicochemical properties of MZF-BC were well studied. MZF-BC with a hybrid pore structure of mesopores (~7.6 nm) and macropores (~50 nm) has the maximum tetracycline adsorption capacity reaching 142.4 mg g-1. Through the study of adsorption kinetics, isotherms and key influencing factors, it was found that MZF-BC adsorption on tetracycline was primarily multi-layer effect with the initial adsorption behavior of pore filling associated with hydrogen bonding and π-π stacking. Furthermore, the MZF-BC performs excellent regeneration ability by driving Fenton-like catalysis as the self-cleaning process in the liquid phase. This study contributes to a new insight into the in-situ regeneration of biochar-based adsorbents after adsorbing organic pollutants in pharmaceutical wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Modified biochar is a feasible adsorbent to solve cadmium pollution in water. However, few studies could elucidate the mechanism of cadmium adsorption by biochar from a molecular perspective. Furthermore, traditional modification methods are costly and have the risk of secondary contamination. Hence, several environmentally friendly sodium salts were used to modify the water chestnut shell-based biochar and employ it in the Cd2+ adsorption in this work. The modification of sodium salt could effectively improve the specific surface area and aromaticity of biochar. Na3PO4 modified biochar exhibited the highest Cd2+ adsorption capacity (112.78 mg/g). The adsorption of Cd2+ onto biochar was an endothermic, monolayer, chemisorption process accompanied by intraparticle diffusion. Microscopically, the enhancement of aromatization after modification made Cd2+ more likely to interact with the regions rich in π electrons and lone pair electrons. This study provided a new research perspective and application guidance for heavy metal adsorption on biochar.

Abstract
To prevent possible secondary pollution from phosphorus-loaded biochar (BC) in agricultural systems, this study investigated the sustainable use of Ca(OH)2 modified wood biochars (Ca-BCs) for P recovery while significantly lowering the tetracycline (TC) adsorption onto Ca-BCs. Ca-BCs were prepared via calcination of mixtures of Ca(OH)2 and wood BC under 100-500 °C for removing P and TC from water. Compared to the pristine BC (without Ca(OH)2 modification), Ca-BC100 (Ca-BC prepared at 100 °C) showed a significant increase of P adsorption capacity from 4.00 to 138.70 mg/g due to reactive interaction between P and Ca(OH)2 on Ca-BC while decrease of TC adsorption capacity from 62.17 to 20.86 mg/g owing to decrease of surface area from 260.50 to 120.26 m2/g. Batch adsorption tests implied that the P adsorption on Ca-BC100 would occur mainly via electrostatic attraction (pH > 2.1) and formation of hydroxylapatite (Ca5(PO4)3(OH)) between phosphate and Ca(OH)2. In addition, Ca-BC100 reacted with TC via electrostatic attraction (pH > 7.6), complexation, hydrogen bond, and π-π interactions. P and TC adsorption onto Ca-BC100 was a chemical, endothermic, and spontaneous process. The dynamic adsorption experiments using a fixed bed column filled with Ca-BC100 indicated that Ca-BC100 could continuously and effectively remove P and TC from water. Ca-BC100 also effectively lowered P and COD in the dairy wastewater. Under the environmentally relevant conditions, continuous treatment of water containing P and TC using the pristine BC followed by Ca-BC100 showed the pristine BC removed 96% of TC and only 6% of P from water while Ca-BC100 made high recovery of P (94% of P) with negligible TC. Therefore, Ca-BC100 could be used for effective recovery of P with negligible TC from wastewater, and then applied to agricultural systems as a sustainable and safe P-rich biofertilizer.

Abstract
Conversion of sewage sludge to biochar for contaminants removal from water achieves the dual purpose of solid waste reuse and pollution elimination, in line with the concept of circular economy and carbon neutrality. However, the current understanding of sludge-derived biochar (SDB) for wastewater treatment is still limited, with a lack of summary regarding the effect of modification on the mechanism of SDB adsorption/catalytic removal aqueous contaminants. To advance knowledge in this aspect, this paper systematically reviews the recent studies on the use of (modified) SDB as adsorbents and in persulfate-based advanced oxidation processes (PS-AOPs) as catalysts for the contaminants removal from water over the past five years. Unmodified SDB not only exhibits stronger cation exchange and surface precipitation for heavy metals due to its nitrogen/mineral-rich properties, but also can provide abundant catalytic active sites for PS. An emphatic summary of how certain adsorption removal mechanisms of SDB or its catalytic performance in PS-AOPs can be enhanced by targeted regulation/modification such as increasing the specific surface area, functional groups, graphitization degree, N-doping or transition metal loading is presented. The interference of inorganic ions/natural organic matter is one of the unavoidable challenges that SDB is used for adsorption/catalytic removal of contaminants in real wastewater. Finally, this paper presents the future perspectives of SDB in the field of wastewater treatment. This review can contribute forefront knowledge and new ideas for advancing sludge treatment toward sustainable green circular economy.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2022; 308:119610. [PMID: 35700880 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2022.119610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2021] [Revised: 05/31/2022] [Accepted: 06/09/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The removal of pesticide residues in soil is a research hotspot. The metolachlor (MET) adsorption by walnut shell biochar (BC) modified with montmorillonite (MBC), illite (IBC), and kaolinite (KBC), as well as the original BC (OBC) was investigated. The characteristics of samples were studied by scanning electron microscopy and mapping analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry, and chemical stability analysis. The effects of the dosage, ionic strength, and pH, and determined the adsorption kinetics and isotherms for MET with the BCs were analyzed. In addition, response surface methodology regression model analysis was conducted and the adsorption mechanisms were investigated. The results showed that the thermal stability and chemical stability of MBC, IBC, and KBC were higher than those of OBC, and MBC had the greatest stability. The MET adsorption rates of OBC, MBC, IBC, and KBC were 62.15%, 92.47%, 87.97%, and 83.31%, respectively. The kinetic fitting results and adsorption mechanisms showed that the modification of BC with minerals enhanced the physical adsorption of MET. The maximum MET adsorption capacities by OBC, MBC, IBC, and KBC were 39.68 mg g-1, 68.49 mg g-1, 65.79 mg g-1, and 65.36 mg g-1, respectively. Hydrogen bonds, π-π bonds, coordination bonds, and hydrophobic interactions were the key adsorption mechanisms. Therefore, the mineral-modified BCs were characterized by high adsorption rates and stability. This approach can make BC more efficient, with higher performance as a low cost soil amendment.

Abstract
In this study, a novel adsorbent, dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid (DBSA) functionalized magnetic biochar (DBSA-Fe3O4@BC), was synthesized and used to efficiently remove dyes from aqueous solution. The results indicated that DBSA-Fe3O4@BC exhibited an excellent adsorption capacity for Rhodamine B (RhB), and the maximum adsorption capacity for RhB at 298 K was 367.67 mg/g, which was approximately 2.3-1.2 folds than that of BC, dodecylsulfonic acid functionalized biochar (DSA@BC), DBSA@BC, Fe3O4@BC, and DSA-Fe3O4@BC. The possible adsorption mechanisms for RhB adsorption by DBSA-Fe3O4@BC included pore filling, electrostatic attraction, H bond, and surface complexation. Importantly, structural control presented that the simultaneous introduction of alkyl and phenyl groups significantly enhanced RhB adsorption by DBSA-Fe3O4@BC through hydrophobic and π-π interaction. Combined ethanol (EtOH) desorption and H2O2 oxidation regeneration, DBSA-Fe3O4@BC remained high-performance for RhB adsorption after six cycles (97.44%), indicating its outstanding reusability. In summary, DBSA-Fe3O4@BC exhibited a prospective application for dyeing wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The coexistence of multiple pollutants has become a distinctive feature of water pollution. However, there are a few strains that can remove nitrate and tetracycline (TC). Here, the efficiency of strain XS-18 in removing nitrate and TC was analyzed, and the mechanism of tolerance and removal of TC was investigated by infrared spectroscopy, three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy, and genome analysis. XS-18 could efficiently remove TC (0.40 mg·L-1·h-1) at pH 7.0-11.0 with auto-aggregation. TC was removed via extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) (55.90%) and cell surface (44.10%) adsorption. TC (10 mg/L) could stimulate XS-18 to secrete more polysaccharides and hydrophobic proteins to improve its auto-aggregation ability. The findings also confirmed that TC resistance genes were present. Furthermore, the bacterial flagellum, signal transduction of the chemotactic system and regulatory genes were shown to be related to the auto-aggregation of the strain. XS-18 has potential applications in the treatment of wastewater containing nitrate and TC.

Abstract
A potassium modified biochar (KBC) using Caulis spatholobi residue as the raw material was prepared by adopting a two-step method of pyrolysis followed by high-temperature potassium hydroxide activation, and its properties were characterized. Activation using potassium hydroxide under high temperature induced the loss of CaCO3 and partial C on biochar, which created a high specific surface area (1336.31 m2/g) together with a developed pore structure. pH displayed a slight influence on tetracycline adsorption, which signified the slight influence of the existence of tetracycline and the charge potential of biochar. Besides, pore filling, hydrogen bonding and π-π EDA stacking interactions possibly resulted in tetracycline adsorption on biochar. Tetracycline adsorption was fast in the original period, followed by a slower rate of adsorption until equilibrium was reached. Adsorption kinetics of tetracycline could be described using secondary and Elovich kinetic models. Adsorption isotherms for tetracycline were well fitted to the Langmuir isotherm model, and the maximum adsorption capacity of KBC was 830.78 mg/g at 318 K. According to a study of the thermodynamics, the adsorption of tetracycline on KBC was an endothermic reaction process. Corresponding results in the present study demonstrated that high-temperature potassium hydroxide activation enabled biochar to effectively eliminate tetracycline from water and wastewater.

Abstract
The evolving multidrug resistance in microbes with increasing antibiotic pollution is becoming a severe global crisis. Recent developments on antibiotic remediations by biochar are promising. Advancements in biochar engineering enhanced biochar remediation efficiency to another level through developing new interactions and bonding abilities with antibiotic pollutants. Especially chemical/metal-composite modification significantly increased catalysis of biochar. The review's main focus is to underline biochar efficiency for the abatement of emerging antibiotic pollutants. Moreover, to relate feedstock, production conditions, and engineering techniques with biochar properties. Also, modification strategies are reviewed to obtain biochar or their composites before examining improved remediation potential ranging from 20 to 552 mg g-1 for various antibiotics. Biochar offers different interactions depending on the surface functionalities e.g., π-π stacking, electrostatic, H-bonding, etc. Biochar and related composites have also been reviewed for remarkable properties e.g., photocatalysis, adsorption, and oxidation processes. Furthermore, future research directions and opportunities for biochar research are discussed.

Abstract
Highlights A new gelatin composite was used to remove methylene blue. The adsorbent was composed of carbon nanotubes, a metal–organic framework and gelatin. The adsorbent had a simple preparation process and was friendly to the environment. The fixation of carbon nanomaterials with gelatin as the substrate avoided secondary pollution. Using carbon nanotubes as the intermediate improved the adsorption capacity.
Abstract A novel gelatin-based functionalized carbon nanotubes@metal–organic framework (F-CNTs@MOF@Gel) adsorbent was prepared by the green and simple method for the adsorption of methylene blue (MB). Cu-BTC (also known as HKUST-1) was selected as the MOF type. F-CNTs@Cu-BTC particles were fixed by gelatin, thus avoiding the secondary pollution of carbon nanomaterial particles to the environment. CNTs were used as the connecting skeleton to make more effective adsorption sites exposed on the surface of the internal pore structure of the adsorbent. In this paper, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetry (TGA) and BET analysis methods were used to characterize the new adsorbent. The effects of time, temperature, pH, dosage and initial concentration on the adsorption process were investigated by batch adsorption experiments. The adsorption mechanism was further analyzed by several commonly used kinetic and isotherm models, and the reliability of several fitting models was evaluated by the Akaike information criterion (AIC), Bayesian information criterion (BIC) and Hannan information criterion (HIC). After five regeneration experiments, the adsorbent still had 61.23% adsorption capacity. In general, the new adsorbent studied in this paper has an optimistic application prospect.

Abstract
Walnut shell is a very potential biochar precursor because of its wide source, low cost, and easy structure modification. In this paper, the co-activation method of FeCl3, ZnCl2 and H2O(g) was adopted to prepare walnut shell-based biochar with high microporosity and the effect of pore structure on CO2 adsorption performance at different temperatures was investigated. The prepared biochar had a larger specific surface area (2647.8 m2 g−1), satisfactory micropore area (2008.7 m2 g−1) and high total pore volume (2.58 cm3 g−1). At 273 K and 298 K, its CO2 adsorption capacity was 4.79 mmol g−1 and 3.20 mmol g−1, respectively. Particularly, CO2 adsorbed uptake on biochar was strongly sensitive to their narrow micropore volume, instead of the total specific surface area, total pore volume, and micropore specific surface area. The optimal pore size beneficial for CO2 adsorption was 0.33–0.82 nm at 273 K, but the optimal pore size was 0.33–0.39 nm at 298 K. It provides theoretical guidance for future material preparation and selection, and FeCl3, ZnCl2 and H2O(g) may be effective biochar activators.

Abstract
Biomass-derived porous carbonaceous materials are efficient adsorbents for VOCs, but their traditional preparation method, pyrolysis combined with activation, suffers from high energy consumption, equipment corrosion, and low pore-making efficiency, which hinders their large-scale practical application. A novel method of alkali metal-catalyzed hydrothermal carbonization coupling with chemical activation for the preparation of microporous carbon is presented. Porous carbon with well-developed microporosity deriving from corn husk were prepared through the hydrothermal carbonization using potassium persulfate (K2S2O8) as a catalyst and programmed heating activation process. And the products were applied to removal of typical oxygen-containing VOCs, ethyl acetate. The addition of K2S2O8 in hydrothermal carbonization accelerated the biomass hydrolysis, decomposed the biopolymer, and formed functional hydrochars. Potassium salts introduced into the hydrochars, which acted as an activator in this programmed heating activation process, formed a great deal of micropores. The specific surface area of micropores increased by 81%, and the specific surface area of micropores less than 1 nm increased by 180%. The introduction of K2S2O8 in preparation improved the adsorption performance of CH-based porous carbons 16.46% and 60.00% respectively at different preparation temperatures (600 °C and 800 °C). Basing on these results, the improvement of micropores less than 1 nm is directly related to the adsorption performance. This indicates that pores (<1 nm) respond well to the adsorption of ethyl acetate.

Abstract
A volumetric system was used to assess carbon-based adsorbents for evaluation of the gas separation, equilibrium, and kinetics of oxygen (O2), nitrogen (N2), and carbon dioxide (CO2) adsorption on granular activated carbon (GAC) and functionalized GAC at 298, 308, and 318 K under pressures up to 10 bar. The effects of ZnCl2, pH, arrangement of the pores, and heat-treatment temperature on the adsorptive capabilities of O2, N2, and CO2 were evaluated. High-performance O2 adsorption resulted with a fine sample (GAC-10-500) generated with a 0.1 wt % loading of ZnCl2. The optimal sample structure and morphology were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and powder X-ray diffraction. On the basis of the adsorption-desorption results, the fine GAC provides a surface area of 719 m2/g. Moreover, it possessed an average pore diameter of 1.69 nm and a micropore volume of 0.27 m3/g. At 298 K, the adsorption capacity of the GAC-10-500 adsorbent improved by 19.75% for O2 but was not significantly increased for N2 and CO2. Isotherm and kinetic adsorption models were applied to select the model best matching the studied O2, N2, and CO2 gas uptake on GAC-10-500 adsorbent. At 298 K and 10 bar, the sip isotherm model with the highest potential adsorption difference sequence and gas adsorption difference compared with pure GAC adsorbent as O2 > N2 > CO2 follows well for GAC-10-500. Eventually, the optimal sample is more effective for O2 adsorption than other gases.

[PMID: 35216977 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.134051] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2021] [Revised: 02/14/2022] [Accepted: 02/16/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
As an in-situ immobilization material for heavy metals, biochar can exist in the environment for thousands of years, while whether the natural aging would affect its heavy metals adsorption performance still remains unclear. Therefore, the coffee grounds biochar (CGB) was prepared under different pyrolysis temperatures (300, 500 and 700 °C) in this study, and the simulated artificial aging treatment was carried out to investigate the effects of pyrolysis temperature and aging treatment on Cd2+ and Zn2+ (both separate and combined conditions) adsorption performance of CGB. The result revealed that Fresh-CGB adsorption performance increased with increasing pyrolysis temperature, while the relationship was not so clear with Aged-CGB where adsorption performance peaked at medium pyrolysis temperature (500 °C) but reduced again as pyrolysis temperature increased to 700 °C. The changes of Aged-CGB adsorption performance for Cd2+ and Zn2+ represented the long-term performance of naturally aging biochar in environment, and a mid-range pyrolysis temperature would seem most appropriate for long-term application of biochar. The X-ray Diffraction (XRD) result revealed that the degree of graphitization of CGB increased with increasing pyrolysis temperature, which represents a stronger environmental stability as the weight loss of CGB300, CGB500 and CGB700 after aging treatment was 2.38%, 0.66%, and 0%, respectively. The EDS and FTIR results suggested that ion-exchange and complexation between CGB/Aged-CGB with Cd2+/Zn2+ played a dominant role in adsorption processes. In addition, the selectivity for Cd2+ was significantly improved after the aging treatment. This is desirable given the stronger toxicity of Cd2+ relative to Zn2+. In general, this study provides new insights into the practical application of biochar from the perspective of long-term effects.

Abstract
In this study, silver-ytterbium-modified biochar (MBC) was prepared to adsorb ciprofloxacin hydrochloride. It was compared with biochar (BC) and alkali-modified biochar (NBC). The results show that the MBC had more functional groups and a larger specific surface area than the BC and NBC. The saturated adsorption capacity of the MBC (312.500 mg g-1) was 3 and 19 times higher than that of the NBC and BC, respectively. The adsorption data were consistent with the pseudo-second-order kinetics model and the Langmuir isotherm model. In addition, the mechanism of CIP adsorption onto NBC and MBC may be dominated by π-π electron donor-accepter interactions. C-O, C=O and -NH2 play important roles in adsorption, and Ag-O and Yb-O groups participate in the adsorption of CIP onto MBC.

Abstract
Modification of pristine biochars has received increasing attentions due to the significant potential in enhancing adsorption performance. In this work, the co-modification of KOH and KMnO4 on biochar (K-Mn-BC) was performed, with the effect of KOH/KMnO4 modification on biochar properties and their adsorption toward tetracycline (TC) being extensively explored. Results showed that KOH/KMnO4 modification can significantly regulate biochars to form hierarchical structure. The obtained K-Mn-BC was characterized with a high specific surface area (1524.6 m2 g-1) and total pore volume (0.85 cm3 g-1). In addition, the K-Mn-BC exhibited a high adsorption capacity of 584.19 mg g-1 toward TC at 318 K, and pseudo-second-order (R2:0.993~0.998) and Langmuir (R2: 0.834~0.874) models can fit well with the adsorption behavior. Moreover, the obtained K-Mn-BC can efficiently adsorb TC within a wide pH range (3.0-10.0), and were not affected by the co-existing ions. The possible mechanisms for the high adsorption capacity were ascribed to the pore filling and π-π interaction, following by hydrogen bonding and metal complexation. The obtained K-Mn-BC is a suitable adsorbent for TC removal from water due to the hierarchical structure, high adsorption capacity, and stable adsorption effect.

Abstract
Abstract
Novel clivia biochar adsorbing daptomycin (DAP) was prepared by microwave digestion–anaerobic carbonization in this work. Fe/Ag submicron particles were introduced to the biochar surface based on the reducibility of biochar to enhance its adsorption capacity. Characterization confirmed that modified biochar (AF-biochar) had a higher particle size (126 μm), larger specific surface area (521.692 m2 g−1), richer pore structure, and higher thermal stability. The effects of the main variables (e.g., the solution pH, contact time, initial DAP concentration, and temperature) were investigated during adsorption. The results showed that AF-biochar could reach the adsorption equilibrium at pH 4.8 for 85 min. Besides, the adsorption capacity was 48.25 mg g−1, and the adsorption efficiency was 96.50% when the concentration of DAP was 25 mg L−1. The pseudo-second-order kinetics (R
2 = 0.9997), Langmuir equation (R
2 = 0.9999), and thermodynamics (R
2 = 0.9631) of AF-biochar fit well, indicating that the main adsorption process of AF-biochar was spontaneous, exothermic, and monolayer. Their adsorption was analyzed by physical and chemical adsorption. The main adsorption mechanisms included the electron donor–acceptor interaction, electrostatic force interaction, Lewis acid–base interaction, and H-bond interaction.

Abstract
With the accelerated industrialization, more and more sewage sludge (SS) needs to be treated properly. The conversion of sludge into harmless biochar material with dual utilization value of adsorption and catalysis by pyrolysis is in line with the concept of sustainable development. However, the reaction mechanisms of pristine sludge biochar (SDBC) and its composites (SDBCs) in adsorption, persulfate (PS), and Fenton-like advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are very closely related to its adsorption performance and catalytic efficiency. In this paper, from the application mechanisms of SDBC in adsorption and AOPs, we review in detail the common methods for synthesizing SDBC and their characteristics. We discuss the synthesis techniques that affect the structural, chemical, and catalytic properties of SDBC, including gasification, pyrolysis, and hydrothermal carbonation (HTC). The pyrolysis temperature, environmental factors, and sludge characteristics have important effects on the properties of SDBC, leading to different mechanisms in adsorption and catalytic processes. Furthermore, this paper systematically generalizes the mechanisms of SDBCs in adsorption, where π-π interactions and electrostatic attractions are the main adsorption mechanisms. Then, activation mechanisms of SDBCs in PS and Fenton-like AOPs systems are discussed, including free radical pathways and non-free radical pathways. Finally, we present several challenges and perspectives for the application of SDBC and SDBCs in the field of adsorption, PS, and Fenton-like AOPs from the mechanistic point of views.

Abstract
The adsorption of benzotriazole (BTA) by chemically modified magnetic biochar (MMBC) as a cheap and abundant biosorbent was investigated and optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). Initially, the MMBC composite was synthesized and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) techniques. The characterization results confirmed the existence of Fe3O4 in the composite structure, which had uniformly dispersed over biochar (BC) with porous texture. Moreover, the presence of Zn and Cl elements in EDX analysis indicated that the magnetic biochar (MBC) had been modified successfully. The effects of chemical modification methods on the adsorption capacity of magnetic biochar were investigated. Maximum BTA removal efficiency was demonstrated by MMBC, modifying using ZnCl2 (>99%). Optimization was carried out based on reaction time, BTA concentration and the concentration of adsorbent. Optimum experimental conditions for the removal of BTA from aqueous solutions were found to be 35 min of reaction time, 0.55 g/L of adsorbent, and 50 mg/L of initial BTA concentration. At these optimal conditions, the predicted BTA adsorption efficiency was 92.6%. The adsorption process followed the Avrami fractional-order reaction kinetic and the Langmuir adsorption isotherm with the maximum adsorption capacity of 563.1 mg/g. The values of thermodynamic parameters demonstrated that the adsorption of BTA on ZnCl2-MBC is endothermic and spontaneous. Under optimum usage of MMBC, the adsorptive removal efficiency of BTA non-significantly decreased from 99.2 to 93.9% after the 5th cycle. Thus, MMBC can be recommended as an environmentally friendly and cost-effective adsorbent to remove micropollutants from water.

Abstract
Biochar-based carbonaceous adsorbents are gaining interest due to their high availability, ease of modification, and low cost; however, they show limited adsorption of CO2 in flue gas due to common textural properties. In this study, TEPA-modified biochar was used to prepare a solid amine adsorbent for the efficient capture of CO2 in flue gas. First, the porous biochar was prepared with FeCl3, Mg(NO3)2, and H2O (g) as activators and walnut shells as carbon sources. Next, the biochar was modified with TEPA to obtain a solid amine adsorbent. Porous texture properties and sample surface functional groups were characterized, and we measured the adsorption CO2 of the amine-modified biochar in a breakthrough adsorption device. Results showed that biochar has a large specific surface area (744.38 m2 g−1), a total pore volume of 1.41 cm3 g−1, and a high mesoporous volume ratio (82.7%). The high pore volume provided a more efficient support space for loading tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA). The adsorbent had an excellent CO2 adsorption capacity, corresponding to 2.82 mmol g−1, which increased to 3.31 mmol g−1 and kept water resistance at 10% H2O (g) simulated flue gas (SFG). The FTIR analysis showed that H2O (g) inhibited urea production after cyclic adsorption. Therefore, solid amine adsorbent created by amine-modified biochar has potential advantages in its application for capturing CO2 in SFG.

Abstract
Fluoroquinolones are one of most commonly used antibiotics for preventing and treating bacterial infections and their unsatisfactory removal by conventional wastewater treatment technology have aroused widespread attention. A novel adsorbent of KMSBC was the first time synthesized and tested to adsorb three typical fluoroquinolone antibiotics of CIP, NOR and OFL from water. The characterization analysis showed that KMSBC possessed the superior porous structure, abundant functional groups and greater graphitic degree. Together with kinetics, isotherms, thermodynamics and critical factors (e.g., biochar dose, reaction time/temperature, fluoroquinolone antibiotics concentration, pH, co-existing ionic strength and HA concentration) analysis suggested that pore filling, π-π conjugation, H-bonding and electrostatic interaction were the key mechanisms for fluoroquinolone antibiotics adsorption by KMSBC. KMSBC exhibited the optimum adsorption performance at pH = 5 despite the adsorbates. The maximum adsorption capacity of KMSBC for CIP, NOR and OFL were 49.9, 55.7 and 47.4 mg/g at 25 °C, respectively. Also, KMSBC exhibited the good magnetic sensitivity and stability with the leaching concentrations of Fe were far below than environmental limit (GB5749-2006) at various pH (from 3 to 12), ionic strength and HA concentrations. Additionally, KMSBC performed a stable sustainable adsorption performance in recycles by NaOH regeneration. Thus, KMSBC had the potential to be a promising adsorbent for fluoroquinolone antibiotics removal with favorable adsorption capacity, environmental security and easy regeneration performance.

Pyrolyzing pharmaceutical sludge to biochar as an efficient adsorbent for deep removal of fluoroquinolone antibiotics from pharmaceutical wastewater: Performance and mechanism. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 426:127798. [PMID: 34838357 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.127798] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2021] [Revised: 10/15/2021] [Accepted: 11/11/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
This study explored the impact of pyrolysis parameters and modification methods on the characteristics of pharmaceutical sludge biochar, and investigated its capacity and mechanisms for levofloxacin (LEV), a typical fluoroquinolone antibiotics, adsorption. The results showed that SBET of the biochar was improved with temperature increase, but decreased when temperature reached 900 °C. Under the optimal pyrolysis condition of 800 °C and 90 min, the biochar possessed the highest SBET of 264.05 m2 g-1, excellent iodine value of 401.41 ± 3.84 mg∙g-1 and phenol adsorption of 57.36 ± 3.39 mg∙g-1. Among KOH, ZnCl2, and CO2 modifications, ZnCl2 modification achieved the highest phenol adsorption of 123.40 ± 4.65 mg g-1, with a significantly improved SBET of 534.91 m2 g-1. The maximum LEV adsorption capacity of ZnCl2 modified biochar, PZBC800, reached 159.26 mg g-1, which overwhelmed the reported sludge biochars. BET, zeta potential, FT-IR, XPS, and Raman analysis, along with quantum chemistry calculation, revealed that pore filling, hydrogen bonding, π-π interaction, surface complexation, and electrostatic interaction were the main mechanisms for the excellent LEV adsorption performance of PZBC800. Deep removal (99.9%) of Fluoroquinolones (FQs) from pharmaceutical wastewater was also achieved by PZBC800 adsorption. The study promoted the development of pharmaceutical sludge biochar preparation and its application in advanced treatment of FQs pharmaceutical wastewater.

Abstract
The extensive use of imidacloprid (IMI) has led to its being frequently detected in natural water, also caused the potential damage to the ecosystem. Development of efficient, green and sustainable technique is demanded to eliminate this problem. A novel biochar (KMCBC) derived from agriculture waste of corn cob was first time co-modified by potassium hydroxide (KOH), ferric chloride (FeCl3) and zinc chloride (ZnCl2), which showed the greater adsorption amount (410 mg g-1 at 298 K) for imidacloprid (IMI). Pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models fitted well with the experimental data, together with the physicochemical characterization analysis, demonstrating that the adsorption process of IMI by KMCBC might be mainly controlled by micropore filling, π-π electron donor-acceptor and functional groups interactions (H-bonding and complexation). Additionally, the thermodynamics parameters suggested that IMI adsorption in this study was a spontaneous, endothermic and randomly increasing process. Besides, KMCBC owned the easy separation performance and promising environmental safety, also exhibited a high selective adsorption capacity regardless of solution pH (its optimum adsorption performance for IMI was obtained at pH = 5), inorganic ions strength and humic acid (HA) concentrations. The regenerated KMCBC (synergistic ultrasound/ethanol) could sustainably and efficiently adsorb IMI in the reuse cycles. Therefore, this study provided an efficient, green and sustainable adsorbent of KMCBC for IMI removal.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated a highly efficient adsorbent that can be recycled from the soil. Walnut shells were used as raw materials to prepare original ecological biochar (OBC), illite modified biochar (IBC), FeCl3 modified biochar (magnetic biochar; MBC), and illite and FeCl3 modified biochar (IMBC), which were tested as low-cost adsorbents. The agents were used to remove metolachlor (MET) from soil. Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, magnetic sensitivity curve analysis, and a series of adsorption experiments were conducted to study the interaction between illite and MBC, and the effect on MET adsorption. Compared with OBC, IMBC had more adsorption sites on the surface. IMBC improved the hole filling effect during the adsorption process. IMBC had more oxygen-containing functional groups and it performed better at removing organic matter through π-π interactions. According to the Langmuir model, the Q0 values for IBC, MBC, and IMBC were 91.74 mg g-1, 107.53 mg g-1, and 129.87 mg g-1, respectively, which were significantly higher than that for OBC (72.99 mg g-1). The response surface model was used to explore the optimal adsorption conditions for IMBC. After three regeneration cycles, the MET adsorption rate with IMBC was still 81.38% and the MET recovery rate was 98.12%. Therefore, IMBC was characterized as an adsorbent with high efficiency, low cost, and good recyclability. In addition, we propose a suitable agricultural system for recovering MBC on site in the field.

Abstract
In this study, readily available inexpensive water treatment sludge (WTS) was used to prepare adsorbent for the removal of Congo red (CR) and tetracycline (TC) from aqueous solutions. The structural characteristics and adsorption properties of WTS biochar were characterised via scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller and Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy. In batch experiments, the adsorption factors, kinetics, isothermal curves and thermodynamics of the adsorption properties were investigated. The optimum preparation condition of WTS biochar was 400 °C for 4 h under O2-limited pyrolysis, which exhibited increased specific surface area and pore structures. The best adsorption was observed when the pH of the CR and TC solutions was 7 and 4, respectively. The adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order model, indicating that the main control step was the chemical adsorption process. Isotherm data were best described by the Langmuir model, and the maximum adsorption capacities for CR and TC were 116.4 and 58.5 mg·g-1, respectively. Thermodynamic parameters revealed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. According to the analysis, the adsorption mechanism of CR could be attributed to electrostatic attraction, π-π conjugation and hydrogen bonding, whereas that of TC was potentially associated with cation exchange, complex precipitation, π-π conjugation and hydrogen bonding.

Abstract
Herein, novel 3D hollow-carved Co2C-doped CoAl2O4 fiber composites (3D-CA-FC) were successfully synthesized via a simple-green pyrolysis method and exhibited remarkably outstanding elimination performance for tetracycline (TC) by adsorption and degradation. The results indicated that the TC adsorption process of the samples could be accurately described by the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir isothermal model, and the maximum TC uptake reached up to 1889.63 mg/g under neutral conditions. Meanwhile, 3D-CA-FC showed good affinity for TC and its adsorption capacity was greatly promoted due to the presence of humic acid, CO32- ion and weakly alkaline environment. About complete degradation of TC could be completed within 60 min under suitable conditions. A significant improvement of catalyst rate was observed after the addition of CO32- ion, because of the selective degradation of CO3•- to TC. BET, XPS and FT-IR analysis indicated that the mechanisms of TC uptake can be ascribed to pore-filling, H-bonds and complexation. Radical trapping experiments showed that 1O2 should serve as predominant contributions, and SO4•- and •OH also played a role in the degradation process. This study provides some inspiration for the construction of 3D-CA-FC as a novel and promising bifunctional material for the elimination of contaminants in water treatment.

Abstract
N-doped hierarchical porous carbons (NHPCs) were successfully prepared from soft-templated zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) precursors using sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS) as a template through facile one-step carbonization and applied in tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) adsorption. The NHPC synthesized at 1000 °C with an SDBS/Zn2+ molar ratio of 0.075 exhibited the highest TCH adsorption (qm = 80.92 mg g-1) owing to its relatively large BET surface area (1067.41 m2 g-1) and pore volume (1.22 cm3 g-1) and the stronger surface interaction between TCH and NHPCs (HC1000-0.075). Compared with surfactant-free ZIF-8-derived carbon (HC), introduction of SDBS in the ZIF-8 precursor not only improved the pore structure of the carbon materials but also increased the nitrogen content and the number of surface functional groups. Adsorption kinetics and isotherms showed that the pseudo-second-order model and Sips model fit the TCH adsorption behavior on HC and HC1000-0.075 well. Adsorption experiments and characterizations revealed that the adsorption mechanism involved in TCH adsorption on HC1000-0.075 mainly depended on the synergistic effect of pore filling, H-bonding, π-π interactions, and weak electrostatic interactions. This study provides an effective and simple strategy for fabricating MOF-derived NHPCs as a promising adsorbent for the removal of antibiotics from water.

Abstract
In this study, the biocarbon derived from aerobic granular sludge with different nutritive proportions was modified by Cu(NO3)2•3H2O (Cu-BC) to improve its adsorption capacity of doxycycline hydrochloride (DOX). The surface area, pores, functional groups, and element composition of biocarbon were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area, X-ray photoelectron spectrometer, X-ray diffraction (XRD), the X-ray photoelectron spectrometer, and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR), respectively. Effects of DOX concentration, initial pH, and background electrolyte on adsorption effects of composite were analyzed. Furthermore, the adsorption kinetics, isotherm, thermodynamics, and diffusion model were investigated. Results demonstrated that biocarbons which were prepared with aerobic granular sludge under different nutritive proportions presented different performances. The BET specific surface area of Cu-NaAC/AGS-BC was 260.1592 m2/g, and the micropore volume was 0.054101 cm3/g. The BET specific surface area of Cu-GLC /AGS-BC was only 10.6821 m2/g, and the micropore volume was 0.008687 cm3/g. Both kinds of modified biochar contain a large number of oxygen-containing functional groups. The highest adsorption efficiency of Cu-BC could reach 99.54%. The adsorption of DOX on two modified biocarbons conforms to the pseudo-second-order dynamic model and Temkin isothermal model.

Abstract
Using current wastewater treatment technologies, it can be challenging to remove the emerging contaminants (ECs) present in kitchen wastewater (KW) of complex compositions and high organic content. In this study, biochar, derived from straw, was modified as an adsorbent to remove ECs such as bisphenol A (BPA), tetracycline (TC) and ofloxacin (OFL) from a complex KW system. An alkali-modified biochar, having larger specific surface areas and stronger hydrophobicity, was found to exhibit a higher adsorption capacity, with more than 95% of the target ECs being removed. Indeed, in a static operation mode, the alkali-modified biochar had maximum adsorption capacities of 71.43, 101.01 and 54.05 mg/g for BPA, TC, and OFL, respectively. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms models indicated that the adsorption process was controlled by chemisorption, as well as the monolayer adsorption of contaminants onto the external and internal surfaces of the alkali-modified biochar. The adsorption of TC and OFL was significantly affected by the initial pH values of KW. However, the presence of different environmental factors (COD, NH4+ and PO43-) had little effects on the adsorption of the contaminants. The alkali-modified biochar was further tested in a fixed-bed column where the maximum dynamic adsorption capacities for BPA and OFL were 55 and 45 mg/g, representing about 75% and 83% of the static saturated adsorption capacities. These findings can be of major significance for the application of alkali-modified biochar in the removal of ECs from complex KW systems.

Tetracycline removal via adsorption and metal-free catalysis with 3D macroscopic N-doped porous carbon nanosheets: Non-radical mechanism and degradation pathway. J Environ Sci (China) 2022; 111:351-366. [PMID: 34949364 DOI: 10.1016/j.jes.2021.04.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2021] [Revised: 04/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/15/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Recently, metal-based carbon materials have been verified to be an effective persulfate activator, but secondary pollution caused by metal leaching is inevitable. Hence, a green metal-free 3D macroscopic N-doped porous carbon nanosheets (NPCN) was synthesized successfully. The obtained NPCN showed high adsorption capacity of tetracycline (TC) and excellent persulfate (PS) activation ability, especially when calcined at 700 °C (NPCN-700). The maximum adsorption capacity of NPCN-700 was 121.51 mg/g by H-bonds interactions. Moreover, the adsorption process followed pseudo-second-order kinetics model and Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The large specific surface area (365.27 mg/g) and hierarchical porous structure of NPCN-700 reduced the mass transfer resistance and increased the adsorption capacity. About 96.39% of TC was removed after adding PS. The effective adsorption of the catalyst greatly shortened the time for the target organic molecules to migrate to the catalyst. Moreover, the NPCN-700 demonstrated high reusability with the TC removal rate of 80.23% after 4 cycles. Quenching experiment and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) test confirmed the non-radical mechanism dominated by 1O2. More importantly, the C = O groups, defects and Graphitic N acted as active sites to generate 1O2. Correspondingly, electrochemical measurement revealed the direct electron transfer pathway of TC degradation. Finally, multiple degradation intermediates were recognized by the LC-MS measurement and three possible degradation pathways were proposed. Overall, the prepared NPCN had excellent application prospects for removal of antibiotics due to its remarkable adsorption and catalytic degradation capabilities.

Abstract
With the quick increase in industrialization and urbanization, a mass of sludge has been produced on the account of increased wastewater treatment facilities. Sewage sludge (SS) management has become one of the most crucial environmental problems because of the existence of various pollutants. However, SS is a carbon-rich material, which has favored novel technologies for biochar production, which can be utilized for dissimilar applications. This review systematically analyzes and summarizes the pretreatment, modification, and especially application of sewage sludge-derived biochar (SSBC), based on published literature. The comparative assessment of pretreatment technology such as pyrolysis, hydrothermal carbonization, combustion, deashing, and co-feeding is presented to appraise their appropriateness for SS resource availability and the production of SSBC. In addition, the authors summarize and analyze the current modification methods and divide them into two categories: physical properties and surface chemical modifications. The applications of SSBC as absorbent, catalyst and catalyst support, electrode materials, gas storage, soil amendment, and sold biofuel are reviewed in detail. Furthermore, the discussion about the existing problems and the direction of future efforts are presented at the end of each section to envisage SS as a promising opportunity for resources rather than a nuisance.

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2022; 344:126268. [PMID: 34737052 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2021.126268] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2021] [Revised: 10/25/2021] [Accepted: 10/29/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
A high-performance biochar derived from the residue of Chaga mushroom (Inonotus obliquus) was reported in this study. Inonotus obliquus residues were used to prepare biochar, and the optimal synthesis conditions were obtained by response surface methodology. The specific surface area, pore volume, and average pore size of the optimal biochar (Zn-IORBC) was 1676.78 m2/g, 1.87 cm3/g, and 3.88 nm, respectively. Methylene blue (MB) and tetracycline (TC) were selected to estimate the adsorption performance of Zn-IORBC. The adsorption process was suitable for the pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir model. Zn-IORBC could maintained a large amount of TC adsorption (the lowest value was 686.20 mg/g in mountain spring water) in different natural water. The maximum adsorption capacity of TC and MB was 947.42 and 1033.66 mg/g. The adsorption mechanism was contributed to the electrostatic attraction, hydrogen bonding, π-π interactions, and pore-filling. Zn-IORBC is an effective adsorbent for high-performance pollutants removal.
