Biochar application in agricultural soil for environmental remediation has received increasing attention, however, few studies are focused on sewage sludge based biochar. The present study evaluated the effect of raw sewage sludge and sewage sludge based biochars produced at different pyrolysis temperatures (100–700 °C) on the adsorption–desorption of carbendazim in soil. Sewage sludge derived biochar significantly enhanced the sorption affinity and limited the desorption capacity of the soil for carbendazim. A maximum removal efficiency of 98.9% and a greatest value of 144.05 ± 0.32 μg g−1 sorption capacity occurred in soil amended with biochar pyrolyzed at 700 °C (BC700). As the pyrolysis temperature and the amendment rate of biochars increased, the sorption of carbendazim was promoted and desorption was further inhibited. The adsorption–desorption hysteresis index of carbendazim was consistently higher in soils amended with biochars (>0.85) than in the unamended soil (0.42–0.68), implying that carbendazim could be immobilized in soil amended with sewage sludge derived biochars. The partition effect was dominant in the sorption process for carbendazim in the biochar–soil mixtures. This study will be helpful for the disposal of sewage sludge and its utilization, and it is the first report for the study the sorption–desorption process of carbendazim in soil amended with sewage sludge derived biochar. Furthermore, these findings may be also useful for understanding the distribution and transport of carbendazim in the environment and will be of great significance in remediation strategies for contaminated soil.Biochar application in agricultural soil for environmental remediation has received increasing attention, however, few studies are focused on sewage sludge based biochar. 相似文献

Atrazine (ATZ) adsorption in two natural soils amended with biochars produced from different feedstocks at 300, 500, and 700 °C were investigated; further, the relationships between the surface and partition adsorption capacities of ATZ in biochar-amended soils with biochar characteristics were quantitatively evaluated. The results revealed that high aromaticity, hydrophobicity, and low polarity of biochar facilitated ATZ adsorption. The addition of selected biochars significantly increased the adsorption of ATZ on paddy soil (PS) and black soil (BS) by 5.2–7.5 times and 2.3–4.2 times, respectively. On the contrary, the degree of increase in surface adsorption was much higher than that in partition adsorption, mainly due to the role of the specific adsorption of ATZ on biochar. Meanwhile, the respective contributions of surface and partition adsorptions to the total ATZ adsorption on biochar-amended soil changed with different addition amounts of biochar. The multiple nonlinear regression analysis demonstrated the linear dependence of H/C ratio, (O + N)/C ratio, and specific surface area (SSA) of biochar on the surface adsorption capacity of biochar-amended PS and BS, as well as the linear dependence of organic carbon and ash contents on the partition adsorption capacity of biochar-amended PS and the linear dependence of the H/C ratio and SSA on the partition adsorption capacity of biochar-amended BS. In biochar-amended soil systems, interactions between biochar and soil could affect ATZ adsorption, and organic matter in biochar might compensate for the role of soil organic matter in the competition for adsorption sites with a decrease in the biochar pyrolysis temperature.Adsorption of atrazine (ATZ) in two natural soils amended with different biochars was investigated, and the relationships of adsorption capacity of biochar-amended soils with biochar characteristics were also quantitatively evaluated. 相似文献

The contents and release of the nutrient elements N, P and K in biochars have been investigated. Sulfur is an indispensable element for plants, but its content and release in biochar are still unclear. The effect of pyrolysis temperature (300, 500 and 700 °C) on the sulfur content, extractable fraction and release of sulfate in corn straw biochars (CS300, CS500 and CS700) was investigated. The biochars were characterized using element analysis, BET, FTIR, and XRD. It was shown that the contents of sulfur in biochars decreased significantly with increasing pyrolysis temperature. The extraction results indicated that the percentages of water extractable-sulfate (W–SO42−) and organosulfur in biochars decreased while those of HCl- and NaH2PO4-extractable sulfate (HCl–SO42−, NaH2PO4–SO42−) increased with pyrolysis temperature. Batch release experiments were conducted to test the effect of contact time and addition of Hoagland nutrient solution (HNS) on the release of sulfate from biochars. The release kinetics fitted well with a pseudo-second-order model. Approximately 10.7 mg g−1 of sulfate was released from CS300 during the initial 2 h, whereas 6.32 and 3.93 mg g−1 were released from CS500 and CS700, respectively. Increasing the amounts of HNS led to negative effects on sulfate release. The results indicate that low-temperatures might be optimal for producing biochar from corn straw to improve the sulfur fertilization.Low pyrolysis temperature is optimal for biochar to release sulfate and the release kinetics fitted well with a pseudo-second-order model. 相似文献

Potassium carbonate activated biochar (450 °C, 600 °C and 750 °C) and nonactivated biochar (600 °C) were prepared by using corn stalk as the raw material. These biochar samples were labeled as KBC450, KBC600, KBC750 and BC600. The physical and chemical properties of the biochar were strongly influenced by the activation of potassium carbonate. After activation with potassium carbonate, the aromatic, hydrophobic and non-polar properties of the biochar were enhanced to form an aromatized non-polar surface, and the aromatic properties were enhanced with the increase of the pyrolysis temperature. The outside surface of the activated biochar was similar to that of porous sponge with a mesoporous–microporous composite structure inside. The specific surface area of KBC600 was 5 times that of BC600, and KBC750 had a maximum surface area of 815 m2 g−1. Batch adsorption experiments showed that the adsorption capacity of KBC for naphthalene increased with the increase of pyrolysis temperature. The adsorption capacity of the biochar for naphthalene showed a significant positive correlation with O/C and (O + N)/C. KBC750 with the strongest surface hydrophobicity and the largest specific surface area had the largest adsorption capacity of 130.7 mg g−1. Physical adsorption and π–π EDA were the main adsorption mechanisms.The structure activation of K2CO3 enriches the surface pores of biochar and increases the specific surface area nearly 10 times. The changes of pore structure and surface properties significantly affect the adsorption process of naphthalene. 相似文献

Biochar is a low cost and renewable adsorbent which can be used to remove dye from wastewater. Cattle manure-derived low temperature biochar (CMB) was studied to remove methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution in this paper. The effect of factors including initial concentration of MB, dosage, contact time, and pH on the adsorption properties of MB onto biochar were studied. Characterization of the CMB and MB adsorbed on CMB was performed using techniques including BET, FTIR and SEM. The adsorption isotherm, kinetics, thermodynamics and mechanism were also studied. The results showed the equilibrium data were well fitted to the Langmuir isotherm model, and the saturation adsorption capacity of CMB200 was 241.99 mg g−1. Pseudo-second order kinetics was the most suitable model for describing the adsorption of MB onto biochar. The adsorption thermodynamics of MB on biochar showed that the adsorption was a spontaneous and endothermic process. Through zeta potential measurement, Boehm titration, cation exchange, deashing and esterification experiments, the importance of ash to adsorption was verified, as well as the adsorption mechanism. The adsorption mechanism of MB on CMB200 involved cation exchange, electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bonding, physical effects and others. This work shows that CMB200 holds promise to act as an effective adsorbent to remove MB in wastewater.Biochar is a kind of low cost and renewable adsorbents which can be used to remove dye from wastewater.

In the present study, discarded pruned tea branch was used to prepare a new biochar, and the physicochemical properties and adsorption characteristics were investigated by characterization and batch experiments. With increasing pyrolysis temperature from 400 to 800 °C, the yield, specific surface area, and acidic functional groups had significant differences. The optimum adsorption conditions were determined as pH = 6 and dosage of 2 g L−1. The pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isothermal model could fit well to the adsorption data, which showed that the adsorption process was dominated by monolayer chemical adsorption. The highest adsorption property (74.04 mg g−1) was obtained by the pyrolysis of tea branch biochar (TBB) at 700 °C owing to the adsorption mechanisms, including surface complexation, precipitation, metal ion exchange, and Cd2+–π interaction. After five cycles of desorption, biochar still showed superior adsorption (80%). Hence, the TBB acted as a regenerable adsorbent for treating Cd2+-containing wastewater.In the present study, discarded pruned tea branch was used to prepare a new biochar, and the physicochemical properties and adsorption characteristics were investigated by characterization and batch experiments. 相似文献

Solidago canadensis is a malignant invasive plant widely distributed in China. In this study, it was used as a biomass source to prepare biochar via an oxygen-limited pyrolysis method. The effect of temperature, heating rate and pyrolysis time on the yield and surface characteristics of the biochar was identified. The adsorption properties for dimethyl phthalate (DMP), a typical allelochemical of Solidago canadensis, of the biochar were explored. In addition, a pot experiment was conducted to reveal the effect of the biochar on tomato seed germination in the presence of allelochemicals. The maximum yield of the biochar was observed when Solidago canadensis was pyrolyzed at 300 °C for 2 h, with a heating rate of 8 °C min−1. Variation of pyrolysis conditions had little influence on the surface characteristics of the biochar. The adsorption of DMP on the biochar could be well described by the Langmuir model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 59.37 mg kg−1. The addition of biochar to the soil could promote tomato seed germination in the presence of allelochemicals. Therefore, the biochar prepared from Solidago canadensis can be used for soil amendment for invaded sites.The feasibility of amending the soil of Solidago canadensis invaded sites with biochar produced from Solidago canadensis was explored. 相似文献

Catalytic oxidative pyrolysis is a promising method for the preparation of highly adsorptive biochar by introducing oxygen-containing groups. Here, a K2FeO4-catalyzed oxidative pyrolysis was described for enhancing the adsorption capability of areca leaf biochar toward methylene blue at low temperature. It was shown that the maximum adsorption capacity of the biochar pyrolyzed at 200 °C was greatly improved from 122.67 to 251.95 mg g−1 with the catalysis of K2FeO4 due to the introduction of surface oxygen-containing groups. In addition, a high adsorption capability was observed over a wide pH range for the K2FeO4-modified biochar and nearly neutral pH was obtained after adsorption, further demonstrating the great advantages of K2FeO4-catalyzed oxidative pyrolysis. Mechanistic studies revealed that the adsorption of the pristine biochar was mainly determined by hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interaction. Whereas, the adsorption of the K2FeO4-modified biochar was attributed to cation exchange besides hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions.A K2FeO4-catalyzed pyrolysis was developed for improving the adsorption capability of areca leaf biochar for methylene blue. 相似文献

Biochar is an efficient and cost-effective sorbent for removing contaminants from aqueous environments. In this study, biochar samples derived from rice straw (R) and swine manure (M) pyrolyzed at 400 °C (R400 and M400) and 600 °C (R600 and M600) were used to adsorb tetracycline from an aqueous solution. The adsorption of tetracycline on both types of biochar included multi-step adsorption processes that were well described by the pseudo-second-order kinetics model (R2 > 0.99). The adsorption equilibrium of tetracycline on rice straw and swine manure derived biochar was reached after 24 h and 36 h respectively. The solution pH affected the adsorption processes by changing the surface charges of tetracycline and biochar. Adsorption isotherms fitted both the Langmuir and Freundlich models well. The adsorption capacity was higher in biochar derived from rice straw than in biochar derived from swine manure, and increased with increasing pyrolysis temperature. Thermodynamic analysis revealed a spontaneous and endothermic tetracycline adsorption process. The values of the adsorption coefficient (Kd) were on the order of 103 for R600 and 102–103 for the other three types of biochar. These experiments indicate that R600 can be used as an inexpensive adsorbent to remove tetracycline from aqueous solutions, but swine manure derived biochar needs more improvement to be a suitable adsorbent.Comparing the adsorption ability of biochar from swine manure and rice straw on tetracycline and investigating the relative mechanisms involved in the process. 相似文献

Single-component and competitive adsorption of tetracycline (TC) and Zn(ii) on an NH4Cl-induced magnetic ultra-fine buckwheat peel powder biochar (NH4Cl-BHP-char/Fe3O4) was investigated in batch experiments. NH4Cl-BHP-char/Fe3O4 exhibited a large surface area of 1119.097 m2 g−1 and a total pore volume of 0.139 cm3 g−1 and was easily separated from aqueous solution using a magnet. Also, adsorption was endothermic, spontaneous, and highly pH-dependent. The optimum pH of the single-component adsorption of TC and Zn(ii) was 4.0 and 6.5, respectively, and the optimum pH of co-adsorption was 6.0. The kinetics studies showed the prepared biochar could be rapidly adsorbed within 60 min, and chemical adsorption was dominant. For single-component adsorption, the maximum adsorption capacities of TC and Zn(ii) were 106.38 and 151.52 mg g−1, respectively, and they underwent monolayer adsorption on the biochar surface. Moreover, for competitive adsorption, maximum TC and Zn(ii) adsorption capacities of 126.58 and 357.14 mg g−1 were achieved. Both film diffusion and intra-particle diffusion were found to be significant processes to facilitate adsorption. TC and Zn(ii) promoted the adsorption of each other. The proposed biochar could be used repeatedly for at least four cycles. All these results demonstrated that developed NH4Cl-BHP-char/Fe3O4 was regarded as a low-cost alternative adsorbent to remove the heavy metal ions and antibiotic pollutants from water or wastewater.Single-component and competitive adsorption of tetracycline (TC) and Zn(ii) on an NH4Cl-induced magnetic ultra-fine buckwheat peel powder biochar (NH4Cl-BHP-char/Fe3O4) was investigated in batch experiments. 相似文献

Biochar is conventionally and widely used for soil amendment or as an adsorbent for water treatment. Nevertheless, the need for transition to renewable materials has resulted in an expansion of biochar for use as a filler for polymer composites. The aim is to enhance the physical, chemical, mechanical and rheological properties of the polymer composite. The reinforcement of biochar into a polymer matrix however is still new, and limited reports are focusing on the effects of biochar towards polymer composite properties. Hence, this review highlights the unique properties of biochar and its effect on the crystallization, thermal, flammability, electrical conductivity, and mechanical properties of polymer composites. This review does not solely summarize recent studies on biochar–polymer-based composites, but also offers insights into a new direction of biochar as a renewable and superior polymer filler in the future.Biochar is a low-cost carbon material with excellent thermal characteristics. Despite having remarkably similar properties to graphene and carbon nanotubes, it is rarely used as a polymer filler. 相似文献

Nano-sized biochar (NBC) has received increasing attention due to its unique physicochemical characteristics and environmental behaviour, but an understanding of its redox properties is limited. Herein, the redox properties of NBC derived from wheat straw were investigated at two pyrolysis temperatures (400 and 700 °C). These NBC materials were prepared from bulk-biochar by grinding, ultrasonication and separation treatments. The resulting NBC had average particle sizes of 78.8 ± 1.9 and 122.0 ± 2.1 nm after 400 and 700 °C treatments, respectively. The physicochemical measurements demonstrated that both the NBC prepared at 400 °C (NBC-400) and the NBC prepared at 700 °C (NBC-700) were enriched in carboxyl and phenolic oxygen-content groups. Electrochemical analyses showed that both NBC-400 and NBC-700 were redox active and had an electron transfer capacity (ETC) of 196.57 μmol−1 gC−1 and 363.47 μmol−1 gC−1, respectively. On the basis of its redox activity of NBC, the NBC was capable of mediating the reduction of iron and manganese minerals as well as the degradation of methyl orange (MO) by sulfide. The NBC-700 could stimulate these reactions better than the NBC-400 due to its higher redox activity. Meanwhile, the NBC was more active in stimulating these reactions than bulk-biochar. Our results highlight the importance of size in evaluating the redox reactivity of biochar and related environmental processes and improve our understanding of the redox properties of biochar.NBC exhibit significant efficiency in mediating MO or minerals reduction by accelerating electron transfer. NBC-700 has higher SSA, ETC and stronger redox property than NBC-400. 相似文献

In this study, a jacobsite–biochar nanocomposite (MnFe2O4–BC) was fabricated and used to simultaneously remove Sb(iii) and Cd(ii) from water via adsorption. The MnFe2O4–BC nanocomposite was prepared via a co-precipitation method and analyzed using various techniques. The results confirm the successful decoration of the biochar surface with MnFe2O4 nanoparticles. The maximum Sb(iii) removal efficiency was found to be higher from bi-solute solutions containing Cd(ii) than from single-solute systems, suggesting that the presence of Cd(ii) enhances the removal of Sb(iii). The Langmuir isotherm model describes well Sb(iii) and Cd(ii) removal via adsorption onto the MnFe2O4–BC nanocomposite. The maximum adsorption capacities are 237.53 and 181.49 mg g−1 for Sb(iii) and Cd(ii), respectively, in a bi-solute system. Thus, the prepared MnFe2O4–BC nanocomposite is demonstrated to be a potential adsorbent for simultaneously removing Sb(iii) and Cd(ii) ions from aqueous solutions.In this study, a jacobsite–biochar nanocomposite (MnFe2O4–BC) was fabricated and used to simultaneously remove Sb(iii) and Cd(ii) from water via adsorption. 相似文献

This paper discusses the sorption characteristics of Pb(ii) and U(vi) on magnetic and nonmagnetic rice husk biochars. The porosity, specific surface area, hydrophobility, and reusability of biochar were effectively improved (1–2 times) after magnetic modification. The optimum adsorption conditions were as follows: biochar loading was 0.4 g L−1, pH value was 7.0, and anion strength of NO3− and PO43− were 0.01 mol L−1 for Pb(ii) and 0.04 mol L−1 for U(vi) respectively. Compared with U(vi), Pb(ii) had the faster adsorption rate and higher adsorption capacity on magnetic biochar (MBC). The adsorption experimental data were well fitted by pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models. The maximum adsorption capacity of Pb(ii) and U(vi) on MBC was 129 and 118 mg g−1 at 328 K respectively, which was significantly higher than that of other sources biochars. Pb(ii) was mainly bonded to biochar by physisorption but the adsorption of U(vi) on biochar was mostly chemisorption. Fe oxides in MBC noticeably improved the ion exchange and complexation action between biochar and metal ion especially for U(vi). The experimental results confirmed MBC material can be used as a cost-effective adsorbent for the removal of Pb(ii) and U(vi) and can be separated easily from aqueous solution when application.This paper discusses the sorption characteristics of Pb(ii) and U(vi) on magnetic and nonmagnetic rice husk biochars. 相似文献

Herein, biochar was produced by the slow pyrolysis of sugarcane bagasse at 500 °C in absence of oxygen. The resulting sugarcane bagasse biochar (SB500) was characterized and used for aqueous carbofuran sorptive removal. Batch carbofuran sorption studies were accomplished to ascertain the influence of solution pH, contact time, temperature (25, 35 and 45 °C) and adsorbate/adsorbent concentration. SB500 adsorbed more carbofuran at low pH values and less carbofuran at high pH values. The necessary sorption equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic parameters were determined. The equilibrium isotherm data were fitted to the Freundlich, Langmuir and Temkin models. The Langmuir equation best fitted the experimental sorption data. The maximum Langmuir adsorption capacity of 18.9 mg g−1 was obtained at pH 6.0 and 45 °C. The enthalpy change (ΔH°), entropy change (ΔS°) and Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) were evaluated. The fixed-bed carbofuran sorption studies were carried out using the optimum parameters determined via the batch studies. The necessary fixed-bed design parameters were obtained. Carbofuran desorption and SB500 regeneration were successfully achieved. About 96% of the total carbofuran was successfully desorbed from the exhausted biochar using 20 mL ethanol in 10 mL increments. Moreover, a possible carbofuran adsorption mechanism has been proposed. A number of interactions including (1) hydrogen bonding of the protonated and neutral carbofuran to biochar, (2) carbofuran sorption onto biochar via π–π electron donor–acceptor interactions and (3) carbofuran diffusion into the biochar pores were considered to explain the sorption mechanism. The batch and fixed-bed sorption results demonstrate that the sugarcane bagasse biochar (SB500) can be effectively used for the sustainable removal and recovery of carbofuran from water.Sugarcane bagasse biochar was prepared, characterized and used for aqueous carbofuran removal.

Iron oxide/biochar (Fe2O3/biochar) was prepared by green synthesis via a microwave to evaluate ultrasound-assisted adsorption capacity of Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) (salicylic acid, naproxen, and ketoprofen) from the water. Several techniques of characterization, including, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy, EDS analysis, N2 adsorption–desorption, X-ray diffraction, and Raman spectrometry were applied. The adsorption of NSAIDs onto Fe2O3/biochar was performed using an ultrasonic bath. The effects of batch adsorption under various experimental parameters such as contact time (0–120 min), initial concentration (10–500 mg L−1) and pH (2–12) were tested. The obtained Fe2O3/biochar specific surface area, mesopore volume/micropore volume, and pores size were equal to 786 m2 g−1, 0.409 cm3 g−1, and 1.534 cm3 g−1, respectively. The pseudo-second-order model could describe better all NSAID adsorptions onto Fe2O3/biochar. The Langmuir model agreed well with the NSAID adsorptions and the maximum adsorption capacities reached 683 mg g−1, 533 mg g−1 and 444 mg g−1 for salicylic acid, naproxen, and ketoprofen, respectively. Fe2O3/biochar can be used as an excellent adsorbent for the treatment of NSAIDs in water.Here, we have developed a simple and green microwave synthesis of iron oxide/biochar for the removal of new emergent pharmaceutical pollutants. 相似文献

To further understand the element migration characteristics and product properties during biomass pyrolysis, herein, pine cone (PC) cellulose and PC lignin were prepared, and their pyrolysis behavior was determined using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Subsequently, the PC was pyrolyzed in a vertical fixed bed reactor system at 400–700 °C for 60 min. The characteristics of element migration and the physicochemical properties of the pyrolysis products were analyzed and discussed. In the pyrolysis temperature range from 200 °C to 500 °C, there were two distinct weight loss peaks for PC. During the pyrolysis process, the C element was primarily retained in the biochar, while the O element mainly migrated into liquid and gaseous products in the form of compounds such as CO2, CO, and H2O. Besides, 28.42–76.01% of the N element in PC migrated into biochar. Of the three-phase products, the gases endow the lowest energy yield, while the energy of the biochar dominates the pyrolysis of the PC. Additionally, the N content and specific surface area for the PC-derived biochar obtained at 400 °C in a N2 atmosphere were higher than those of the biochar derived from fiberboard.To further understand the element migration characteristics and product properties during biomass pyrolysis, herein, pine cone (PC) cellulose and PC lignin were prepared, and their pyrolysis behavior was determined using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). 相似文献

Biochars were prepared by pyrolyzing mango peel waste at 300, 400, 500, 600 and 700 °C. Various characterizations were carried out to explore the effect of pyrolysis temperature on the biochars. The data indicated that the physical and chemical properties of biochar such as pH, element ratio, specific surface area and functional groups changed with the increase of pyrolysis temperature. The yield and contents of hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen decreased, while contents of the ash and carbon, pH and specific surface area of the biochars increased. In addition, the molar ratios of H/C, O/C and (O + N)/C decreased. In this study, batch adsorption experiments for Cd(ii) adsorption were performed with initial Cd(ii) concentrations of 10–300 mg L−1, contact times of 0–2880 min, various pH (2–8) and biochar dose (1–20 g L−1). Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetics models were better fits than other models, suggesting the dominant adsorption of mango peel biochars is via monolayer adsorption. Biochar derived at 500 °C was found to have the highest adsorption capacity of 13.28 mg g−1 among all biochars and the adsorption efficiency was still 67.7% of the initial adsorption capacity after desorption for 4 times. Based on adsorption kinetics and isotherm analysis in combination with EDS, FTIR and XRD analysis, it was concluded that cation exchange, complexation with surface functional groups and precipitation with minerals were the dominant mechanisms responsible for Cd adsorption by mango peel biochar. The study suggested that mango peel can be recycled to biochars and can be used as a low-cost adsorbent for Cd(ii) removal from wastewater.Biochars were prepared by pyrolyzing mango peel waste at 300, 400, 500, 600 and 700 °C. 相似文献

Soil contamination by heavy metals such as Cd can pose a risk to the environment and human health. However, Cd is difficult to immobilize at low concentration levels in soil. Individually, Bacillus subtilis and biochar have been shown to be inefficient at immobilizing Cd in soil. In this study, corncob biochar was generated at different pyrolysis temperatures (300 °C-550 °C), and the Cd immobilization efficiency and performance of corncob biochar loaded with B. subtilis (CB@B) and corncob biochar alone (CB) were evaluated in solutions and in soil. The characterization (SEM and FTIR) of CB generated at different pyrolysis temperatures and CB generated at different pyrolysis temperatures in CB@B (300 °C-550 °C) indicated that a superior pore structure and abundant O-functional groups were obtained at a pyrolysis temperature of 400 °C for both CB@B and CB. The X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results indicate that the formation of Cd compounds was associated with the positive combined biosorption effect of the bacteria and biochar, electronic adsorption, activity of the O-functional groups (C O, COOH, OH, and Si–O–Si), and complexation between extracellular substances and Cd2+. Adsorption experiments were conducted in a solution to assess the effects of various operating parameters such as the time, pH, and adsorbent dose. The 400 °C-CB@B and 400 °C-CB samples achieved the largest reductions in the Cd concentration at 81.21% and 5.70%, respectively. Then, CaCl2 extraction experiments were conducted in soil, and using 0.25%-CB@B, a 55.21% decrease was realized in the Cd concentration after 56 days and a 16.71% increase was realized in soil pH to 8.38. No significant difference was observed in the CB-treated groups, among which 1.0%-CB achieved the largest reduction of 26.08% after 56 days and a 3.20% increase in the soil pH to 7.41. The Tessier sequential extraction method obtained similar trends. Overall, 400 °C-CB@B demonstrated outstanding immobilization efficiency and durability, indicating that it provided a safe and nutrient-rich habitat for B. subtilis to realize a synergistic effect for Cd immobilization.There were multiple mechanisms worked during 400 °C CB@B immobilized Cd in soil, and reduction of availability Cd reached 69%. 相似文献
