Magnetic Biochar Decorated with ZnS Nanocrytals for Pb (II) Removal
Abstract
Magnetic biochar/ZnS composites were successfully synthesized by deposition of ZnS nanocrystals (NCs) on magnetic biochar in a polyol solution. The as-prepared composites showed a high maximum adsorption capacity for Pb (II) up to 367.65 mg g –1, which was 10 times higher than that of reported magnetic biochar. Furthermore, the lead-laden magnetic biochar/ZnS composites can be easily separated from the solution by a magnet after adsorption because of the excellent superparamagnetic properties. The composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The adsorption process was well described by the pseudo-first-order model, and the adsorption isotherm could be well fitted by the Langmuir model. The thermodynamic studies showed that the removal of Pb (II) was an endothermic and spontaneous process. The present results warrant the promising application of magnetic biochar/ZnS composites in removal of Pb (II) from contaminated water.

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.
