  • Pyrolysis at about 700 °C gives biochar with good sorption properties.

    “The price of biochar is significantly lower than that of activated carbon and that pyrolysis at about 700 °C gives biochar with good sorption properties [11].”

    From Biomass-Derived Biochar for The Removal of Textile Dyes from Aqueous Solutions: A Review (2026) · cites this paper as [11]

  • Sulfuric-acid-treated kitchen-waste biochar achieved 100 % removal of crystal violet with a capacity of 450 mg/g.

    “Sulfuric-acid-treated kitchen-waste biochar achieved 100 % removal of crystal violet with a capacity of 450 mg/g [11].”

    From Biomass-Derived Biochar for The Removal of Textile Dyes from Aqueous Solutions: A Review (2026) · cites this paper as [11]

    The color/dyes removal table (page unavailable) lists other feedstocks and dyes, but not sulfuric-acid-treated kitchen-waste biochar or crystal violet. Searches for those terms and 450 mg/g found no passage reporting the claimed 100% removal or capacity. (LLM, conf=0.76)

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.
