Abstract Integrating innovation and environmental responsibility has become important in pursuing sustainable industrial practices the contemporary world. These twin imperatives have stimulated research into developing methods that optimize processes, enhancing efficiency effectiveness while mitigating undesirable ecological impacts. This objective is exemplified by emergence of biochar derived from thermo-chemical transformation biomass. review examines production their potential applications across various aspects iron steel industries (ISI). The technical, economic, implications integrating ISI were explored. Slow pyrolysis hydrothermal carbonization are most efficient for higher yield (25–90%). Biochar several advantages- heating value (30–32 MJ/kg), more porosity (58.22%), significantly larger surface area (113 m 2 /g) compared to coal coke. However, presence often reduces fluidity a coal-biochar mixture. findings highlighted implementation come with costs, primarily due expense substitute fuels traditional fossil fuels. economic viability societal desirability highly uncertain vary based on factors such as location, feedstock type, scale, pricing, among others. Furthermore, biomass supply chain another factor which determines its large scale implementation. Despite these challenges, there opportunities reduce emissions BF-BOF operations utilizing technologies. Overall, present study explored diverse aiming contribute ongoing manufacturing practices, underscoring significance shaping environmentally conscious future.

Coconut Shell Biochar for the Removal of Acetaminophen and Ciprofloxacin in Low Concentrations: Single and Competitive Adsorption Studies

Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 63(44), С. 19120 - 19134

Опубликована: Окт. 28, 2024

Pharmaceutical compounds at lower concentrations have been found in surface water bodies and sewage. This study investigated the removal of acetaminophen (ACP) ciprofloxacin (CIP) using coconut shell biochar (CBC) as an adsorbent. Characterization by X-ray microtomography scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed micro- macropores CBC, with a area 368.071 m2/g determined Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) isotherm analysis. The formation oxygen-rich functional groups aromatic on CBC was indicated Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) photoelectron (XPS) spectra. Optimal 1 mg/L ACP CIP observed dosage 100 optimum pH 7.0 for 3.0 CIP. Adsorption kinetics fitted pseudo-second-order model Freundlich data well, suggesting strong chemical adsorption. Competitive adsorption reduced efficiency, particularly ACP. Reusability tests showed high rates across multiple cycles, indicating CBC's potential purification. disposal measures reused reference to spent adsorbents avoid environmental pollution also discussed this study.

Advancements in Biochar for Soil Remediation of Heavy Metals and/or Organic Pollutants

Materials, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 18(7), С. 1524 - 1524

Опубликована: Март 28, 2025

The rapid industrialization and economic growth have exacerbated the contamination of soils with both heavy metals organic pollutants. These persistent contaminants pose substantial threats to ecosystem integrity human health due their long-term environmental persistence potential for bioaccumulation. Biochar, its high specific surface area, well-developed pore structure, abundant functional groups, has emerged as a promising material remediating contaminated by While some research explored role biochar in soil remediation, several aspects remain under investigation. Fully harnessing remediation is critical importance. This review provides an overview preparation methods physicochemical properties biochar, discusses application compounds and/or metals, examines mechanisms underlying interaction Additionally, it summarizes toxicity assessments during outlines future directions, offering scientific insights references practical deployment pollution remediation.
