Pyrolytic synthesis of graphene-encapsulated zero-valent iron nanoparticles supported on biochar for heavy metal removal

Highlights BC-G@Fe0 nanocomposite  was produced through two carbothermal reduction routes. The biomass impregnating-carbonizing route produced graphene-encapsulated iron carbide (Fe3C) nanoparticles. The pyrolyzing-biochar-impregnating-carbonizing route produced graphene-encapsulated nanoscale zero-...
