Abstract:A tourmaline-biochar composite (TMBC) was facilely synthesized to effectively remove Cr (Ⅵ) from aqueous solution. The effects of different ratio (TM: BC) and pyrolysis temperature on TMBC adsorption performance were compared for optimal condition of TMBC preparation. The TMBC samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive spectrometer (SEM-EDS). The kinetics and thermodynamics were analyzed to investigate the sorption… Show more
