Cadmium Remediation from Water Using Low-Cost Modified Biochar: An Approach Towards Sustainable Remediation

Diksha Pandey & R.K. Srivastava · Asian Journal of Environment & Ecology · 2024

Biochar is increasingly recognized as an effective adsorbent for the removal of Cadmium (Cd²⁺), a prevalent contaminant in industrial wastewater. This study utilizes rice husk biochar to target aqueous Cd²⁺. The biochar was synthesized through rapid pyrolysis at 450°C. To enhance...
