Biochars with different Al contents (ie, 5, 10, 15, and 20 wt%) were prepared to evaluate their
adsorption capacities for nitrate (NO 3−) and phosphate (PO 4 3−) from eutrophic water …

Removal of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) from water through the use of various sorbents
is often considered an economically viable way for supplementing conventional methods …

To reduce the eutrophication caused by nitrogen and phosphorus in water, invasive plant
Eupatorium adenophorum was used to prepare biochar under different pyrolysis …

Biochar has emerged as a universal sorbent for the removal of contaminants from water and
soil. However, its efficiency is lower than that of commercially available sorbents …

Abstract La (OH) 3-modified canna biochar (CBC-La) was prepared by a coprecipitation
method (dipping method), and its phosphate adsorption characteristics were investigated …

Abstract Ammonium (NH 4+) is a common form of reactive nitrogen in wastewater, and its
discharge to water bodies can lead to eutrophication. This study was conducted to …

Agricultural biomass wastes, which may pollute the environment yet are inefficiently
managed worldwide, can be recycled into biochar, which is subsequently used to remediate …

Biochars are potentially effective sorbents for NH4+ and NO3− in water treatment and soil
applications. Here we compare NH4+ and NO3− sorption rates to acid-washed biochars …

Biochar is the solid product of biomass pyrolysis that can be used for carbon sequestration,
soil amendment, and pollution remediation. The use of biochar as an adsorbent for the …

Carbon materials, as effective adsorbents to numerous aqueous cationic contaminants,
have been hardly applied to remove anions in wastewater. In this work, different modifying …
