ZnCl2-modified eucalyptus bark biochar as adsorbent: preparation, characterization and its application in adsorption of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions
Biochar is a byproduct of biomass pyrolysis that has been identified as an effective and novel bio-adsorbent for contaminant removal from wastewater. A pyrolysis-chemical activation process was used to convert eucalyptus tree bark to activated biochar, which was then characterized using various tech...
