Gasification biochar from biowaste (food waste and wood waste) for effective CO2 adsorption
Abstract
Biochar is newly proposed as an innovative and cost-effective material to capture CO 2. In this study, biochar was produced from feedstock mixtures of food waste and wood waste (i.e., 20%:80% WFW20, 30%:70% WFW30 and 40%:60% WFW40) by gasification. The two biochar adsorbents containing the highest percentage of food waste, i.e., WFW40-K and WFW40-KC, were activated by KOH and KOH + CO 2, respectively. The biochar adsorbents were then tested for CO 2 adsorption at room temperature of 25 °C by using a volumetric sorption analyzer. The WFW20 showed the highest CO 2 adsorption capacity, while higher percentage of food waste in the feedstock was unfavorable for the CO 2 adsorption. The presence of N and S on the biochar surface was the primary contributor to the high CO 2 uptake on WFW20. The development of micropores by KOH activation significantly increased the CO 2 adsorption on WFW40-K, but KOH + CO 2 activation could not further increase the development of micropores and subsequent CO 2 adsorption. Moreover, WFW40-K showed >99% recyclability during 10 consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles. The biochars derived from biowaste (food waste and wood waste) could be effective adsorbents for CO 2 capture by providing green solution for food waste recycling.

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.
