Abstract

This study reports creative preparation of MnO 2 -biochar (MBR) via MnO 2 modification of biochar (BR) derived from aerobically composted swine manure. SEM coupled with EDX analyzer, TEM, XRD, BET, and FT-IR were employed to examine the surface properties and pore structures of MBR and BR. Adsorption experiments of Pb(II) and Cd(II) including isotherms, kinetics, and thermodynamics as well as the influence of pH on zeta-potential were also investigated. The results indicated that MBR showed rougher and larger surface area and pore volume than BR. In batch adsorption, MBR showed superior adsorption performance (maximum capacity for Pb 268.0 mg/g and Cd 45.8 mg/g) to BR (Pb 127.75 and Cd 14.41 mg/g). The adsorption process was pH-dependent, and the removal efficiency reached its maximum at 0.2 g/L dosage of MBR, after which it declined. Finally, X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS) studies indicated the oxidative Mn 4+ on MBR, and suggested that apart from electrostatic attachment, specific adsorption (i.e., Pb/Cd–O or hydroxyl binding) and ion exchange were the removal mechanisms of metal ions. Therefore, this modification method toward BR was promising for wastewater treatment of heavy metal pollution.

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.
