Nitrate removal from aqueous solution using watermelon rind derived biochar-supported ZrO2 nanomaterial: Synthesis, characterization, and mechanism

Recently, biochar has attracted tremendous research interest for environmental applications. In this study, biochar-derived watermelon rind (WM) was produced via optimal pyrolysis at 500 °C for 2 h, and then improved the adsorption capacity by Zirconium oxide nanoparticles (ZrO2 NPs). The WM@ZrO2 wa...
