Capacity and Potential Mechanisms of Cd(II) Adsorption from Aqueous Solution by Blue Algae-Derived Biochars
Abstract
The removal of potentially toxic metals by biochars is currently a popular and salutary method. In this study, we combined the advantages of blue algae (Microcystic) and pyrolysis technology to produce a late-model biochar. Moreover, the adsorption capacity and potential mechanisms of blue algae-derived biochars for the removal of cadmium (Cd) from aqueous solution were evaluated in comparison with the adsorption capacity and potential mechanisms of corn straw-derived biochar (CSBC) and rice husk-derived biochar (RHBC). Batch adsorption experiments were used to explore the adsorption performance of biochars, and a wide range of characterization techniques were employed: scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and zeta potential analysis. The results showed that the adsorption isotherms could be described well by the Langmuir model and that the pseudo-second-order model fit the Cd(II) adsorption kinetics best, indicating that the process was monolayer and controlled by chemisorption. Moreover, the Cd(II) removal capacity of optimal blue algae-derived biochar (BC600-2) (135.7 mg g-1) was 85.9% and 66.9% higher than the removal capacity of CSBC and RHBC, respectively. In addition, the results of the characterization methods showed that precipitation with minerals was the primary mechanism, accounting for 68.7-89.5% of the capacity. Overall, blue algae-derived biochars, as a product from freshwater biowaste, may be a novel and potentially valuable adsorbent for Cd(II) removal.

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.
