Biochar is a carbon-rich material that can be obtained from pyrolysis of solid waste (eg,
agricultural solid waste and sludge from wastewater treatment plants). Biochar features low …

The promising characteristics of nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) have not been fully
exploited owing to intrinsic limitations. Carbon-enriched biochar (BC) has been widely used …

This paper evaluates a novel sorbent for the removal of potentially toxic elements, inherent
cations, and hetero-chloride from hydraulic fracturing wastewater (FWW). A series of iron …

The presence of refractory organic pollutants (ROPs) in the ecosystem is a serious concern
because of their impact on environmental constituents as well as their known or suspected …

Biochar is a low-cost, porous, and carbon-rich material and it exhibits a great potential as an
adsorbent and a supporting matrix due to its high surface activity, high specific surface area …

Organic, particularly nitro and chlorinated, contaminants are of great concern in ecosystem
for their contribution to environmental problems worldwide. Nitro contaminants are mostly …

In recent years, magnetic biochar (MBC) has been greatly concerned because of its
magnetic separation characteristics, and has been successfully used as a catalyst in the …

Biochar shows promise as a potential low–cost sorbent for removing oxyanions from
wastewater. However, this generic material exhibits a very wide range in porosity, surface …

A novel ball milled Fe 0-biochar composite was synthesized by ball milling the mixture of
biochar (pyrolyzed at 300° C, 500° C, and 700° C) and micron grade iron powder. FTIR …

The utilisation of magnetic biosorbents (metal or metal nanoparticles impregnated onto
biosorbents) has attracted increasing research attention due to their manipulable active …
