The indiscriminate release of chromium-saturated effluent into water bodies has raised concerns regarding its effect on human health and environmental ecology. Therefore, this research aimed to remove hexavalent chromium from an aqueous solution utilizing activated carbon developed Rumex abyssinicus. adsorbent was prepared through chemical impregnation with H3PO4 then thermally at 500 for 2 h. optimization the adsorption experiments performed using Box‒Behnken approach response surface methodology. characterization revealed good quality in terms amorphous structure, maximum specific area 1722.9 m2/g porous surface. Furthermore, results showed that a removal efficiency 95.97% attained optimum working pH 3, contact time 60 min, initial concentration 70 mg/L dosage 0.6 mg/100 mL. Langmuir isotherm model found have best fit experimental data. Moreover, kinetics study pseudo-second-order data best, indicating occurrence chemisorption. Overall, suggested abyssinicus could be effective removing solutions.

Sustainable manufacture and application of biochar to improve soil properties and remediate soil contaminated with organic impurities: a systematic review

Frontiers in Environmental Science, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 11

Опубликована: Ноя. 20, 2023

Biochar production and application have become increasingly popular in the past 15 years. Biochar, derived from diverse biomass types, offers a rich carbon source created through thermal combustion. primarily depends on pyrolysis conditions feedstock type. This review focuses multifaceted aspects of biochar, encompassing hydrothermal carbonization, gasification, temperatures biochar its role bioeconomy soil remediation. has yielded valuable insights, notably decreasing nutrient leaching, curbing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, reducing bioavailability environmental pollutants, sequestering (C) soils, enhancing agricultural productivity. Consequently, it emerged as commodity for bioeconomy, which involves harnessing bioresources bioengineering to create economically products. As marketable output, finds energy, biochar-based product manufacturing, sector. Thus, not only enhances quality but also unlocks additional revenue streams. underscores critical selection optimizing production. Furthermore, highlights sustainable effective tool improving various types remediating contamination caused by organic impurities, including persistent compounds antibiotics.
