Growth performance and biomass production of Eleusine indica and Rorippa sylvestris on heavy metal contaminated soil after biochar application

Journal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management, 2020
Heavy metal contamination was an environmental and human health problem all over the world. Cadmium is the most hazardous heavy metals due to its high mobility and toxicity at low concentrations. Lead (Pb) also belongs to the hazard element caused by its

Activated Carbon from Rice Husk Biochar with High Surface Area

Biointerface Research in Applied Chemistry, 2020
Activated carbons derived from rice husk pyrolysis (biochar) were prepared by chemical activation at different biochar/K2CO3 proportions in order to assess its capacity as adsorbent. The activated material was characterized by X-ray diffraction (DRX), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the Brunauer, Emmet, and Teller (BET) method ...

Effects of Pyrolysis Control Parameters on the Structural Properties of Biomass‐Derived Activated Carbon Materials and Their Energy Applications

The Chemical Record, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.
Tubular pyrolysis synthesis is a widespread method to produce activated carbons (ACs). This review focuses on the different controlling parameters of the tubular pyrolysis synthesis method and their influence on the performance of synthesized ACs, thereby considering both experimental aspects and the use of plant‐based biomasses (PBBs) as feedstock ...

Solvent‐Driven Pore Engineering in Coffee‐Derived Activated Hydrochar: Implications for Post‐Combustion CO2 Capture

Carbon Energy, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Solvent washing of coffee‐ground hydrochars produces activated carbons with tunable pore sizes while maintaining surface area. Removing non‐polar contaminants enhances microporosity, increasing CO2 uptake by 40%. Moderate pore sizes (9–12 Å) yield optimal CO2:N2 selectivity, whereas smaller pores reduce selectivity due to stronger interactions between ...
