Adsorption of Congo red and tetracycline onto water treatment sludge biochar: characterisation, kinetic, equilibrium and thermodynamic study

In this study, readily available inexpensive water treatment sludge (WTS) was used to prepare adsorbent for the removal of Congo red (CR) and tetracycline (TC) from aqueous solutions. The structural characteristics and adsorption properties of WTS biochar were characterised via scanning electron mic...
