Journal ArticleDOI
Recovery of Electrical Energy in Microbial Fuel Cells
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed energy data in the sampled publications on continuously operated microbial fuel cells from the past 12 years and presented a rough picture of energy recovery in MFCs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of organic micropollutants onto biochar: a review of relevant kinetics, mechanisms and equilibrium
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the fundamental basis of adsorption kinetics, mechanisms, and equilibrium with respect to biochar-based adaption of micropollutants is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nitrate removal from groundwater driven by electricity generation and heterotrophic denitrification in a bioelectrochemical system.
Yiran Tong,Zhen He +1 more
TL;DR: It was found that applying an electrical potential improved the nitrates removal and the highest nitrate removal rate of 208.2 ± 13.3g NO3(-)-Nm(-3) d(-1) was achieved at 0.8 V.
Journal ArticleDOI
Triclosan adsorption using wastewater biosolids-derived biochar
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of wastewater biosolids-derived biochar as an adsorbent to remove triclosan from water was evaluated and it was shown that acid-conditioned biochar could be a suitable sorbent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristics and applications of biochars derived from wastewater solids
Zhongzhe Liu,Simcha L. Singer,Yiran Tong,Lee K. Kimbell,Erik Anderson,Matthew L. Hughes,Daniel Zitomer,Patrick J. McNamara +7 more
TL;DR: Wastewater biochar is a potential candidate to sorb nutrients or organic contaminants from contaminated wastewater streams as mentioned in this paper, and it is likely to serve as a better catalyst to convert bio-oil to py-gas than other conventional biochars because of the inherently higher metal content.
