1. A review of biochar as a low-cost adsorbent for aqueous heavy metal removalCritical Reviews in Environmental Science and Technology · 2015 · 1,396 citations

   As a low-cost adsorbent, biochar can be used as a low-cost adsorbent for wastewater treatment, particularly with respect to treating heavy metals in wastewater. A number of studies have demonstrated effective removal of heavy metals from aqueous solutions by biochar…

2. Dairy-Manure Derived Biochar Effectively Sorbs Lead and AtrazineEnvironmental Science & Technology · 2009 · 1,253 citations

   Biochar (BC) produced from agricultural crop residues has proven effective in sorbing organic contaminants. This study evaluated the ability of dairy-manure derived biochar to sorb heavy metal Pb and organic contaminant atrazine. Two biochar samples were prepared by heating dairy…
