Journal ArticleDOI
A review of biochar as a low-cost adsorbent for aqueous heavy metal removal
Mandu Inyang,Bin Gao,Ying Yao,Yingwen Xue,Andrew R. Zimmerman,Ahmed Mosa,Pratap Pullammanappallil,Yong Sik Ok,Xinde Cao +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a review incorporating existing literature to understand the overall sorption behavior of heavy metals on biochar adsorbents is presented, and mathematical models are used to evaluate the efficiency of biochar at removing heavy metals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of heavy metals from aqueous solution by biochars derived from anaerobically digested biomass
Mandu Inyang,Bin Gao,Ying Yao,Yingwen Xue,Yingwen Xue,Andrew R. Zimmerman,Pratap Pullammanappallil,Xinde Cao +7 more
TL;DR: Investigation of lead sorption by the two biochars indicated that the removal was mainly through a surface precipitation mechanism, which was confirmed by batch sorption experiments, mathematical modeling, and examinations of lead-laden biochar samples using SEM-EDS, XRD, and FTIR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochar derived from anaerobically digested sugar beet tailings: characterization and phosphate removal potential.
Ying Yao,Bin Gao,Mandu Inyang,Andrew R. Zimmerman,Xinde Cao,Pratap Pullammanappallil,Liuyan Yang,Liuyan Yang +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that anaerobically digested sugar beet tailings can be used as feedstock materials to produce high quality biochars, which could be used to reclaim phosphate, and the DSTC showed the highest phosphate removal ability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of phosphate from aqueous solution by biochar derived from anaerobically digested sugar beet tailings.
Ying Yao,Bin Gao,Mandu Inyang,Andrew R. Zimmerman,Xinde Cao,Pratap Pullammanappallil,Liuyan Yang,Liuyan Yang +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that biochar converted from anaerobically digested sugar beet tailings is a promising alternative adsorbent, which can be used to reclaim phosphate from water or reduce phosphate leaching from fertilized soils.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochar from anaerobically digested sugarcane bagasse.
Mandu Inyang,Bin Gao,Pratap Pullammanappallil,Wenchuan Ding,Wenchuan Ding,Andrew R. Zimmerman +5 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that the pyrolysis of anaerobic digestion residues to produce biochar may be an economically and environmentally beneficial use of agricultural wastes.
