Removal of toxic elements from aqueous environments using nano zero-valent iron- and iron oxide-modified biochar: a review
Abstract Biochar (BC) has gained attention for removal of toxic elements (TEs) from aqueous media; however, pristine biochar often exhibits low adsorption capability. Thus, various modification strategies in BC have been developed to improve its removal capability against TEs. Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) and iron oxides (FeOx) have been used as sorbents for TE removal. […]

Preparation and characterization of MgO hybrid biochar and its mechanism for high efficient recovery of phosphorus from aqueous media
Abstract Conversion of organic waste into engineered metal-biochar composite is an effective way of enhancing biochar’s efficiency for adsorptive capture of phosphorus (P) from aqueous media. Thus, various strategies have been created for the production of metal-biochar composites; however, the complex preparation steps, high-cost metal salt reagent application, or extreme process equipment requirements involved in […]
