Application of biochar for the removal of pollutants from aqueous solutions.

TL;DR: An overview of biochar production technologies, biochar properties, and recent advances in the removal of heavy metals, organic pollutants and other inorganic pollutants using biochar is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biochar-based nano-composites for the decontamination of wastewater: A review.

TL;DR: The various synthesis techniques for biochar-based nano-composites and their effects on the decontamination of wastewater are reviewed and the characteristic and advantages of existing synthesis methods are summarized and discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biochar as potential sustainable precursors for activated carbon production: Multiple applications in environmental protection and energy storage

TL;DR: Compared with traditional activated carbon, activated biochar appears to be a new potential cost-effective and environmentally-friendly carbon materials with great application prospect in many fields.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biosorption of cadmium(II), zinc(II) and lead(II) by Penicillium simplicissimum: Isotherms, kinetics and thermodynamics.

TL;DR: The thermodynamics constants DeltaG degrees, DeltaH degrees and DeltaS degrees of the adsorption process showed that biosorption of Cd(II), Zn( II) and Pb(II) ions on Penicillium simplicissimum were endothermic and spontaneous.
Journal ArticleDOI

Subcellular distribution and chemical forms of cadmium in Bechmeria nivea (L.) Gaud.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of Cd uptake on plant performance, nitrate reductase activity in leaves and root activity were analyzed during the entire experimental period, and it was suggested that the protective mechanisms evolved by ramie play an important role in Cd detoxification at relatively low Cd concentrations (below 3 ǫl−1ǫCd) but become restricted to maintain internal homeostasis with higher Cd stress.
