Item Evaluation and correlation of the influence of production parameters on biochar characteristics and its influence on the adsorption of three industrial dyes(Institute of Chemistry Ceylon, 2021-06) Saumya,Dineth; Peiris,Chathuri; Abeysundara,Sachith.P; Gunatilake,Sameera. RRemediation of waste water containing hazardous dyes using biochar (BC), as an adsorption technique, is a cost effective and efficient method. As a statistical approach, this study was focused on how feedstocks, pyrolysis temperature, production method and modification affect to the physiochemical properties of BC and how these properties affect to the adsorption of methylene blue (MB), crystal violet (CV) and rhodamine B (RB) from aqueous medium.Item Value added biochar for a sustainable environment(Institute of Chemistry Ceylon, 2020-01) Gunatilake,Sameera. RBiochar (BC) is produced by the thermochemical conversion of biomass under anaerobic conditions. The resulting cost-effective carbonaceous adsorbent is utilized extensively due to its pollution remediation and agricultural soil amendment capabilities.
