Efficient removal of mercury and chromium from wastewater via biochar fabricated with steel slag: Performance and mechanisms

Biochar derived from biomass is regarded as a promising adsorbent for wastewater treatment, but the high cost of modification is still a challenge for its large-scale practical applications. In this study, we employed steel slag as a low-cost fabricant and synthesized hydrothermally carbonized steel...
