Abstract

A novel wasted sludge-based Biochar modified by Chitosan and Fe/S (BCFe/S) was prepared for tetracycline (TC) removal from water. To investigate the similarities and differences in adsorption behaviors between Biochar and BCFe/S, characterization, kinetics, isotherms and thermodynamics were discussed. The studies on site energy distribution (SED) were also presented. The results showed that the maximum TC adsorption amount was 51.78 mg/g for Biochar, while it was 183.01 mg/g for BCFe/S-4. Meanwhile, electrostatic attraction, π-π stacking, pore filling, silicate bonding and hydrogen bonding were the main adsorption mechanisms for TC removal by Biochar. Besides above mechanisms, chelating and ion exchange were also accounted for adsorption mechanisms for TC uptake by BCFe/S-4. Moreover, SED results revealed that the surface of Biochar was more homogeneous while the surface of BCFe/S-4 was more heterogeneous at higher temperature. Findings of this work could offer valuable information in designing adsorbents and investigating adsorption mechanisms.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
