Molecular-level investigation on removal mechanisms of aqueous hexavalent chromium by pine needle biochar
Pine needle biochar produced via oxygen-limited pyrolysis at 800 °C for 2 h was used for removing aqueous hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] from water. The optimality of the pseudo-second order kinetic model indicated the chemisorption dominated the removal process. Strong acid environment (pH = 2.0) was...
