Influence of pyrolysis temperature on characteristics and heavy metal adsorptive performance of biochar derived from municipal sewage sludge.

TL;DR: In the batch experiments of cadmium(II) adsorption, the removal capacity of biochars improved under higher temperature, especially at 800°C and 900°C even one order of magnitude higher than that of the commercial activated carbon.

Physical Adsorption on Non‐Uniform Surfaces

TL;DR: In this article, a quasi-chemical theory of interaction (BET) was used to analyze adsorption on a uniform surface and showed that the hypotheses of the BET theory lead to substantially no adorption beyond the first layer if E2 = EL, and stepwise isotherms if E1>E2>E3>···>EL.

Behavior of chromium, nickel, copper, zinc, cadmium, mercury, and lead during the pyrolysis of sewage sludge.

TL;DR: For sewage sludge, which contains metals with similar chemical and physical properties such as Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb, pyrolysis at 500-600/sup 0/C might prove suitable since no metals are released to the atmosphere and a char is produced that is well suited for disposal in an inorganic sanitary landfill.
