Biochar is considered to be the cost-effective, environmentally-friendly and sustainable
sorbent that has an extraordinary potential to efficiently remove toxic elements, including …

In this paper, the enhanced adsorption of methylene blue (MB) dye ion on the activated
carbon (AC) modified by three surfactants in aqueous solution was researched. Anionic …

Recently, biochar has received significant attention, especially for the removal of potentially
toxic elements (PTEs) from water and wastewater. No review has been focused on the …

Chromium (Cr) is a potentially toxic metal originating from natural processes and
anthropogenic activities such as the iron-steel, electroplating, and leather industries, which …

Thermochemical processing of biomass results in a producing char, a typical by-product.
The char can be termed as biochar when specifically applied as a soil fertility enhancement …

Biochar produced during the thermochemical decomposition of biomass not only reduces
the amount of carbon emitted into the atmosphere, but it is also an environment-friendly …

In recent years, many studies have been devoted to investigate the application of biochar for
