Project description
This research focuses on the production of biochar from agricultural waste streams for application in water treatment. Emphasis is placed on the removal of organic micropollutants and metals through a combination of adsorption, surface complexation, ion exchange, and chemical transformation mechanisms. The aim is to develop a sustainable, cost-effective, and circular solution for advanced water purification.
