Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of pyrolysis temperature on soybean stover- and peanut shell-derived biochar properties and TCE adsorption in water.
TL;DR: Biochars developed from soybean stover and peanut shells and pyrolysis temperature influencing the BC properties was a critical factor to assess the removal efficiency of TCE from water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantification of Surface Oxides on Carbonaceous Materials
TL;DR: In this article, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to quantify the concentrations of hydroxyl, carboxylic acid, and carbonyl groups on carbonaceous surfaces, specifically black carbons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation and characterization of a novel silica aerogel as adsorbent for toxic organic compounds
TL;DR: In this paper, hydrophobic and hydrophilic silica aerogels were synthesized from cheap waterglass precursors via surface modification of wet gels, ambient pressure drying (APD) route and calcination treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production and use of biochar from buffalo‐weed (Ambrosia trifida L.) for trichloroethylene removal from water

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that buffalo-weed biomass can be converted to value-added biochar that can be used as an effective adsorbent for the treatment of trichloroethylene contaminated groundwater.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating activated carbon-water sorption coefficients of organic compounds using a linear solvation energy relationship approach and sorbate chemical activities.
TL;DR: Sorption was promoted by dispersive forces and was diminished for sorbates capable of proton acceptance/electron donation, although both of these became less important at higher sorbate activities.
