Abstract: |
To improve wheat straw biochar's removal ability of copper from polluted water and soils, wheat straw biochar was modified using nano-hydroxyapatite. The characteristics of unmodified and nano-hydroxyapatite-modified wheat straw biochars were analyzed, and batch and kinetic adsorption experiments were conducted. The results showed that the nano-hydroxyapatite coating was uniformly attached to the surface and improved the thermal stability of the wheat straw biochar. All three concentrations of the nano-hydroxyapatite coating decreased the hydrophobicity of the biochar. The nano-hydroxyapatite coating increased the adsorption rate of copper by 7.69%~130.77%. The maximum adsorption capacity of nano-hydroxyapatite-modified wheat straw biochar increased from 32.65 mg·g-1 without coating to 57.01 mg·g-1 with 0.5% coating. Copper adsorption onto unmodified and nano-hydroxyapatite-modified wheat straw biochars were well fitted by the pseudo-second-order kinetics and Langmuir adsorption models. |
