KOH-activated porous biochar with high specific surface area for adsorptive removal of chromium (VI) and naphthalene from water: Affecting factors, mechanisms and reusability exploration

Jianhua Qu et al.

Summary: A high-performance porous biochar (PBCKOH) was successfully synthesized through KOH chemical activation, showing excellent adsorption performance for both Cr(VI) and NAP in water treatment. The PBCKOH achieved high uptake capacities for both contaminants and exhibited multiple kinetics during the adsorption process. The enhanced adsorption of Cr(VI) was mainly attributed to electrostatic attraction, complexation, ion exchange, and reduction actions, while the high NAP uptake was achieved through pore filling and π-π stacking interactions.

Microwave-assisted synthesis of β-cyclodextrin functionalized celluloses for enhanced removal of Pb(II) from water: Adsorptive performance and mechanism exploration

Jianhua Qu et al.

Summary: In this study, beta-cyclodextrin was efficiently grafted onto rice husk-based celluloses using microwave irradiation, leading to fast adsorption equilibrium and superior reusability for Pb(II) removal. The synthesized adsorbents exhibited excellent adsorption capacities and could effectively purify acid battery effluent containing Pb(II), showing great potential for tailored adsorbents development in wastewater treatment.

Green synthesis of hydrophilic activated carbon supported sulfide nZVI for enhanced Pb(II) scavenging from water: Characterization, kinetics, isotherms and mechanisms

Jianhua Qu et al.

Summary: In this study, green tea extracts were used as a reductant for the green synthesis of nZVI with low aggregation and high antioxidation, which was further modified with hydrophilic porous activated carbon and sulfidation technology. The results indicated the successful preparation of porous activated carbon with microporous and mesoporous characteristics and effective loading of S-nZVI nanoparticles. The S-nZVI@HPAC showed excellent pH-dependent adsorption performance for Pb(II) with fast kinetic equilibrium and outstanding binding capacity.
