Abstract

Biochar has been acknowledged for its unique property which makes it potential candidates as adsorbent for carbon dioxide (CO2) in the flue gas system. In this study, the properties of raw sawdust biochar (SB) and amine treated sawdust biochar (NSB) are being compared. Ultimate analysis was performed using elemental analyzer to determine the carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and sulfur contents in the adsorbent. Physiochemical characterization has been performed to characterize the biochar properties. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) were used to evaluate the functional groups and surface area of the biochar. Thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) was used to discover the thermal properties, reactivity during adsorption. During the adsorption study, it was observed that raw sawdust biochar gasified at 850 °C gave the highest adsorption of 0.47 kg CO2/kg biochar at temperature of 30 °C. The incorporation of nitrogen functionalities onto the carbon surface may cause decrement of surface area of carbon.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Amine degradation reduces the amine's capacity to absorb CO2 and accelerates equipment corrosion.

    “This degradation reduces the amine’s capacity to absorb CO2 and accelerates equipment corrosion10–12.”

    From Metals incorporated agricultural waste corn Cob-based biochar used as an adsorbent for CO2 capturing (2025) · cites this paper as [10]

    The Introduction says byproducts of amine degradation reduce CO2 adsorption capacity. It also says amine accelerates corrosion in the machines involved, but does not specifically say degradation causes that corrosion. (LLM, conf=0.86)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • The cyclic process of CO2 absorption and regeneration in amine solutions results in amine degradation.

    “However, the cyclic process of CO2 absorption and regeneration in these amine solutions results in amine degradation.”

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.
