This study introduces a novel process for synthesizing zero-valent iron/biochar using wood waste and iron mud, and highlights the superior performance of Fe-0-BC-1200 in removing rhodamine B due to the generation of more Fe-0 particles at higher temperatures. The removal mechanism involves both physical adsorption of biochar and redox reactions of Fe-0, with the additional benefit of copper reduction in the iron mud promoting the oxidation of iron and degradation of RB.
This study proposes a new process to synthesize zero-valent iron/biochar (Fe-0-BC) by carbothermal reduction using wood waste and iron mud as raw materials under different temperature. The characterization results showed that the Fe-0-BC synthesized at 1200 degrees C (Fe-0-BC-1200) possessed favorable adsorption capacity with the specific surface area of 103.18 m(2)/g and that the zero-valent iron (Fe-0) particles were uniformly dispersed on the biochar surface. The removal efficiency of rhodamine B (RB) was determined to evaluate the performance of the prepared Fe-0-BC. Fe-0-BC-1200 presented the best performance on RB removal, which mainly ascribes to that more Fe-0 particles generated at higher temperature. The equilibrium adsorption capacity reached 49.93 mg/g when the initial RB concentration and the Fe-0-BC-1200 dosage were 100 mg/L and 2 g/L, respectively, and the pseudo-second-order model was suitable to fit the removal experimental data. LCMC and XRD analyses revealed that the removal mechanism included the physical adsorption of biochar and the redox reaction of Fe-0. Moreover, copper existing in the iron mud was also reduced to Cu-0, which was beneficial to catalyze the oxidation of iron; the degradation of RB was promoted at the same time.
