The disadvantages of conventional methods in water and wastewater management
including the demand for high energy consumption, the creation of secondary toxic sludge …

In this work, inexpensive biochar derived from different feedstock was synthesized,
characterized, and tested for Cr (VI) removal from synthetic wastewater. The physical …

The content of active components in magnetic biochar, especially Fe (II), is closely related to
its activation performance. Therefore, improving Fe (II) content in magnetic biochar is an …

Many industrial wastewaters contain an appreciable amount of toxic copper (Cu (II)) that
needs to be properly treated before discharging into receiving water body. Adsorption can …

Torrefaction, as a pretreatment of biomass coupled with pyrolysis process, has gathered
significant attention in recent years to obtain higher quality bio-oil. Being an energy …
