Immobilization of tetrabromobisphenol A by pinecone-derived biochars at solid-liquid interface: Synchrotron-assisted analysis and role of inorganic fertilizer ions

The immobilization of tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) by pinecone-derived biochars at solid-liquid interface was investigated in this study. The surface structures and functional groups of biochars produced at different temperatures were characterized through synchrotron-assisted FTIR analysis. The adsorption isotherms were well described by the Langmuir model. The adsorption capacity of TBBPA varied as pH and TBBPA initial concentration changed …
