58. Green Carbon Webinar – Rice husk biochar: An ecological solution to remove metals from water


Green Carbon Webinar from 29th April 2021 by Frank Brigano (Glanris Water Systems Inc, USA): Glanris rice husk biochar is a designer or hybrid media that can remove organic and inorganic contaminants, e.g., heavy metals, from the water environment. Produced from agricultural waste using a patented process, the Glanris media sequesters carbon preventing the carbon from impacting the climate plus has been demonstrated to remove a variety of heavy metals from water, retaining metal removal function in the presence of light oils, as well as removing organic contaminants. This presentation gives an overview of the impact of rice husk waste on the climate, charring technology, laboratory and field data showing the efficaciousness of the Glanris rice husk biochar plus potential media applications. This talk was presented as part of the Green Carbon Webinar Series.
