Journal ArticleDOI
Organic and inorganic contaminants removal from water with biochar, a renewable, low cost and sustainable adsorbent--a critical review.
TL;DR: A review of recent applications of biochars, produced from biomass pyrolysis (slow and fast), in water and wastewater treatment, and a few recommendations for further research have been made in the area of biochar development for application to water filtration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cadmium and lead remediation using magnetic oak wood and oak bark fast pyrolysis bio-chars
TL;DR: Magnetic oak wood biochar (MOWBC) and magnetic oak bark (MOBBC) were obtained from oak wood and oak bark biochars made by fast pyrolysis during bio-oil production as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of magnetic activated carbon from almond shells for trinitrophenol removal from water
TL;DR: Magnetic and non-magnetic low cost activated carbons from almond shells were prepared, characterized, and used to remove 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) from water as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lead and Chromium Adsorption from Water using L-Cysteine Functionalized Magnetite (Fe 3 O 4 ) Nanoparticles
TL;DR: L- Cysteine functionalized magnetite nanoparticles (L-Cyst-Fe3O4 NPs) were synthesized by chemical co-precipitation using Fe2+ and Fe3+ as iron precursors, sodium hydroxide as a base and L-Cysteine as functionalized agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochar production and applications in soil fertility and carbon sequestration – a sustainable solution to crop-residue burning in India
TL;DR: In this paper, a sustainable solution to biomass burning by converting agricultural residues into biochar was provided to improve soil fertility, sequester carbon, and increase crop production, which can be used for carbon sequestration and soil amendments.
