摘要
Engineered biochar was obtained through slow pyrolysis of hickory wood and then further modified with NaOH. After modification, biochar's surface area, cation-exchange capacity, and thermal stability were significantly improved. The modified biochar exhibited much larger (2.6-5.8 times) metal adsorption capacities than the pristine biochar. Competitive batch adsorption of mixed metal ions (Pb2+, Cd2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, and Ni2+) showed preferential adsorption of Pb2+ and Cu2+ onto the modified biochar. The alkali-modified biochar in a fixed-bed column also showed strong ability to filter heavy metals from aqueous solutions. The alkali-modified biochar thus can serve as alternative absorbent for heavy metals. (C) 2015 The Korean Society of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry. Published by Elsevier B.V.
