Biochar, a product of pyrolysis of biomass, represents an attractive alternative to non-
renewable or unsustainably sourced biomass as an adsorbent material for treating gaseous …

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET polymer) is the main ingredient in clear bottles containing
water and other liquids such as hand sanitizers. Due to the increasing use of these …

This study investigates the adsorption potential of natural materials waste. The biosorbent
used is an untreated pomegranate peel (PGP) derived from local agricultural activities to …

Chlorpyrifos (CPS) is an emerging contaminant due to the runoff of CPS from agricultural
fields, which find its way to nearby water sources. CPS requires to be removed to ensure the …

A new post-treatment method was applied for improving the sorption efficiency of biochar-
based sorbents for anionic forms of phosphorus. The Fe-impregnation through direct …

Heavy metal adsorption from aqueous solution onto modified biochar derived from date
seed biomass was investigated. Modification methods included pre-treatment of the biomass …

To improve the utilization value of coal resources and optimize the production process of
coal-based activated carbon, an L 9 (3 4) orthogonal experiment was designed to study the …

Biochar has been explored as a sorbent for contaminants, soil amendment and climate
change mitigation tool through carbon sequestration. Through the optimization of the …

In this study, flash heating was applied for activated carbon (AC) preparation to shorten the
long production period as a new heating method. Activated carbons were prepared from …

Iodine and methylene blue adsorption properties of the high surface area nanoporous
carbon materials derived from agro-waste and rice husk is reported. Rice husk was pre …
