Abstract
The magnetic biochar is prepared by one-pot method using waste wooden building formwork as feedstock in the existence of the FeCl3 for Cr6+ removal form wastewater. Characterization analysis indicates that magnetic biochar exists Fe3O4 with specific surface area of the 333.89–496.35 m2/g, contributing to Cr6+ removal. Cr6+ removal process can be well analyzed by the Pseudo-second order and Hill models with adsorption capacity of 30.41 mg/g. The adsorption process analysis indicates that Cr6+ removal mechanism includes surface complexation, electrostatic attraction, reduction and pore filling. The influence of Fe2+ on Cr6+ removal is analyzed, indicating Fe2+ participation into Cr6+ removal by reduction. The magnetic biochar has excellent reusability after three cycles. The Cr6+ removal process is also investigated using column adsorption experiment, indicating that magnetic biochar has column adsorption amount of the 56.64 mg/g. The economic feasibility of the magnetic biochar is investigated and calculated with the production cost of $2.48/1kg. The waste wooden building formwork is converted into the efficient magnetic biochar for Cr6+ removal from wastewater.
