ABSTRACT

Biochar, as an adsorbent, is widely used for the removal of organic pollutants in water body. Hence, after saturated adsorption, regeneration treatment is required to recover the adsorption performance of biochar. In this study, a biochar (P-GBC) prepared by phosphoric acid activation showed high adsorption capacity for methylene blue (MB) with the maximum adsorption capacity (Qm) of 599.66 mg/g. Then, regeneration treatments using 4 mM peroxymonosulfate (PMS), 0.2 M hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and their mixture were used to regenerate MB-saturated biochar with regeneration efficiencies of 58.24%, 66.01% and 94.88%, respectively. Combining with degradation and quenching experiments, it is found that synergistic effect of H2O2 desorption and PMS degradation is responsible for the enhancement of regeneration efficiency of P-GBC in H2O2-PMS system and enables a high mineralization rate of 82.68% for the MB adsorbed on P-GBC. Furthermore, EPR tests indicate that singlet oxygen (1O2) is assigned as the primary activate species for the degradation of MB and XPS analyses confirm that graphite nitrogen and carbonyl on P-GBC are the main active sites for the activation of PMS. Compared with conventional regenerants, H2O2-PMS system has the advantages of low dosage, high mineralization efficiency, and easy accessibility, and is also effective, sustainable and environmentally friendly for the regeneration of organic pollutants-saturated biochar.

ABSTRACT

Phytoextraction is an effective approach for remediation of heavy metal (HM) contaminated soil. After the enhancement of phytoextraction efficiency has been systematically investigated and illustrated, the harmless disposal and value-added use of harmful phytoextraction biomass (HPB) become the major issue to be addressed. Therefore, in recent years, a large number of studies have focused on the disposal technologies for HPB, such as composting, enzyme hydrolysis, hydrothermal conversion, phyto-mining, and pyrolysis. The present review introduces their operation process, reaction parameters, economic/ecological advantages, and especially the migration and transformation behavior of HMs/biomass. Since plenty of plants possess comparable extraction abilities for HMs but with discrepancy constitution of biomass, the phytoextraction process should be combined with the disposal of HPB after harvested in the future, and thus a grading handling strategy for HPB is also presented. Hence, this review is significative for disposing of HPB and popularizing phytoextraction technologies.
