Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorption isotherm, kinetic modeling and mechanism of tetracycline on Pinus taeda-derived activated biochar.

Hyun Min Jang, +5 more
- 01 Jul 2018 - 
TL;DR: The maximum adsorption capacity of theactivated BC was higher than those of various activated BCs from the previous studies while it was similar to those of commercial activated carbons, indicating that the activated BC had the high potential for TC removal in water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ionic liquid-mediated extraction of lipids from algal biomass.

Young-Hoo Kim, +8 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: Fatty acid profiles of the lipids extracted using IL-methanol mixtures showed that C16:0, C16-1, C18:2, and C18-3 fatty acids were dominant, which suggests that the lipid extracted from C. vulgaris can be used as a source of biodiesel production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conversion of waste cooking oil into biodiesel using heterogenous catalyst derived from cork biochar

Shashi Kant Bhatia, +12 more
- 01 Apr 2020 - 
TL;DR: The experiment results demonstrate that heterogeneous catalyst synthesized at 600 °C showed maximum fatty acids methyl esters (FAMEs) conversion (98%) at alcohol:oil (25:1), catalyst loading (1.5% w/v) and temperature 65°C.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorption behavior of tetracycline onto Spirulina sp. (microalgae)-derived biochars produced at different temperatures.

Yong-Keun Choi, +8 more
- 25 Mar 2020 - 
TL;DR: SPAL-BCs obtained as a by-product of pyrolysis may be an economical and potentially valuable adsorbent for aqueous antibiotic removal and presented the highest TC adsorption capacity via batch experimentation through batch experimentation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of pyrolysis temperature on the physicochemical properties of alfalfa-derived biochar for the adsorption of bisphenol A and sulfamethoxazole in water.

Yong-Keun Choi, +2 more
- 01 Mar 2019 - 
TL;DR: The present study reports alfalfa (one of most abundant hays in U.S)-derived biochar for effective removal of emerging contaminants in water for the first time, and finds needs for alternative regeneration methods for BPA and SMX.
