Upgrading wet biomass to char via hydrothermal carbonization is a promising method for producing valuable resources for adsorption purposes. This study investigated the effects of pre-drying and pre-washing on the process and hydrochar production using fresh Ulva pertusa seaweed. The presence of surface moisture and bound moisture influenced the process, and hydrochar produced from fresh seaweed with additional water showed similar adsorption capacity to fresh seaweed without additional water.
Upgrading wet biomass to char via hydrothermal carbonization is a promising method to produce valuable resources for adsorption of organic impurities. In this work, a fresh green seaweed, Ulva pertusa, was investigated to demonstrate the effects of pre-drying and pre-washing on the process and the hydrochar production. Surface moisture and bound moisture were found to affect this process. Hydrochar produced from fresh seaweed with additional water showed similar adsorption capacity to fresh seaweed without additional water and 38% higher than hydrochar from soaked dry seaweed. This was supported by FTIR spectra analysis, which showed that these hydrochars produced from fresh seaweed without additional water have the highest proportion of carboxyl functional groups.
