Sorption performance and mechanisms of arsenic(V) removal by magnetic gelatin-modified biochar

TL;DR: In this paper, a new environmentally friendly and low-cost adsorbent to remove As(V) from industry waste water was synthesized by the mixture of 723 K pyrolyzed chestnut shell and magnetic gelatin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biochar for environmental management: Mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, contaminant treatment, and potential negative impacts

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a critical review of updated knowledge on both positive and negative impacts of biochar for environmental management, based on an exponentially increased number of publications on the topic over the past decade.
Journal ArticleDOI

Removal of 17β-estradiol by few-layered graphene oxide nanosheets from aqueous solutions: External influence and adsorption mechanism

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of few-layered graphene oxide nanosheets (GO) as efficient adsorbents for the removal of 17β-Estradiol (E2) from aqueous solutions via strong adsorptive interactions was investigated by batch adsorption experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms underlying the photocatalytic degradation pathway of ciprofloxacin with heterogeneous TiO2

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the recent advances in visible light-activated TiO2 for the photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics from water systems by titanium dioxide (TiO2) photocatalysis is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of porous zinc–biochar nanocomposites on Cr(VI) adsorption from aqueous solution

TL;DR: In this article, a new synthesis method was developed to produce zinc-biochar nanocomposites from sugarcane bagasse, which showed great potential advantages in the removal of Cr(VI) from wastewater.
