Journal ArticleDOI

In-situ chemical oxidation: Principle and applications of peroxide and persulfate treatments in wastewater systems

TL;DR: This review focuses on the principle and activation techniques used in H2O2 and persulfate based ISCO processes and the research gaps have been identified based on the knowledge of current research and recommendations are made for further understanding of ISco processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk analysis of pyrolyzed biochar made from paper mill effluent treatment plant sludge for bioavailability and eco-toxicity of heavy metals

TL;DR: The risk analysis was performed to study the bioavailability and eco-toxicity of heavy metals in biochar obtained from pyrolysis of sludge of pulp and paper mill effluent treatment plant and it was observed that the leaching potential ofheavy metals decreased after pyroglysis and the best results were obtained for biochar pyroallyzed at 700°C.
Journal ArticleDOI

Utilization of sludge based adsorbents for the removal of various pollutants: A review

TL;DR: It was observed that performance of the sludge based adsorbents varies depending on the type of pollutants, type of precursor sludge, carbonization time-temperature profile and thetype of activation conditions used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of the magnetic biochar composites for use as an adsorbent for the removal of pentachlorophenol from the effluent

TL;DR: The ageing tests showed that biochar prevents the formation of oxide film on the ZVI particles and leaching tests confirmed the stability of ZVI on biochar matrix as very low iron leaching was noticed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simultaneous adsorption and dechlorination of pentachlorophenol from effluent by Ni-ZVI magnetic biochar composites synthesized from paper mill sludge.

TL;DR: In this article, the Ni-zero-valent iron magnetic biochar composites (Ni-ZVI-MBCs) were synthesized from paper mill sludge and used as an adsorbent for the removal of pentachlorophenol (PCP) from the synthetic and real paper mill effluent.
