商品描述

This book helps the readers get a holistic understanding of the emergence of biochar-nanocomposite research. The low and long-term exposure of persistent hazardous pollutants in environment is well known for damaging the water, soil, sediments, and living biota. Thus, it is a crucial step to eliminate these pollutants from environment regimes to prevent the on-site destruction or the transfer into the food chain. Biochar is a carbon-rich solid material generated through pyrolysis of biomass, and currently, it is covering the hotspot in environmental management of pollutants. It is being utilized for the efficient immobilization and sorption of organic pollutants, heavy metals, dyes, improvement of soil redox conditions, aggregate stabilization, photocatalytic degradation, and for carbon sequestration. The fascinating properties like surface area, porous structures, functional groups, and mineral components turn it into suitable candidate for the removal of various class of pollutants from environmental matrices. Different reactions like sorption, reduction, precipitation, solidification, and degradation are mainly responsible for the effective cleaning of xenobiotics from environment through biochar application. However, rapidly evolving contaminants in the environment have made the remediation more complex, expensive, and challenging. In view of these aspects, the modification of biochar through the doping of nanometals/metal oxides/surfactants/ or chemical entities will result in modified biochar with high surface area, more functional entities, improved physical, chemical, thermal, and mechanical characteristics with more adsorptive sites. Inclusion of these exclusive properties can be done through magnetic modification, impregnation of nanometals/ metal oxides/surfactants, amination, acid/base reactions, steam activation, etc. The resulted biochar-based nanocomposites have demonstrated a vital role in remediation of persistent organic pollutants, radionuclei, and heavy metals through the various interaction mechanisms like surface complexation, π-π interaction, electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bonding, Fenton process, and photocatalytic degradation. Currently, advanced research work has been carried out for the designing of modified composites of biochar to achieve maximum removal efficiency, reusability, biotoxicity, and sustainability. Hence, for selective removal of pollutants through designed biochar surface with the focused experimentation toward optimization of feedstocks, process variables, appropriate impregnation of nanomaterials, interaction with secondary pollutants, physical environment, longevity, and regeneration will definitely pave the way for safe and commercial application of biochar-based nanocomposites.

本書幫助讀者全面了解生物炭-奈米複合材料研究的興起。持久性有害污染物在環境中的低濃度和長期暴露已被廣泛認識為對水、土壤、沉積物和生物體造成損害。因此,消除這些污染物以防止現場破壞或轉移至食物鏈是至關重要的一步。生物炭是一種通過生物質熱解產生的富碳固體材料,目前在污染物的環境管理中備受關注。它被用於有效固定和吸附有機污染物、重金屬、染料、改善土壤氧化還原條件、穩定聚集體、光催化降解以及碳封存等。生物炭的迷人特性,如表面積、孔隙結構、功能團和礦物成分,使其成為去除各類污染物的合適候選材料。不同的反應,如吸附、還原、沉澱、固化和降解,主要負責通過生物炭應用有效清除環境中的外來物質。然而,環境中快速演變的污染物使得修復變得更加複雜、昂貴且具挑戰性。鑒於這些方面,通過摻雜奈米金屬/金屬氧化物/表面活性劑或化學實體來改性生物炭,將產生具有高表面積、更多功能實體、改善的物理、化學、熱和機械特性以及更多吸附位點的改性生物炭。這些獨特特性的納入可以通過磁性改性、奈米金屬/金屬氧化物/表面活性劑的浸漬、氨基化、酸/鹼反應、蒸汽活化等方式實現。所產生的基於生物炭的奈米複合材料在通過各種相互作用機制(如表面配位、π-π相互作用、靜電相互作用、氫鍵、芬頓反應和光催化降解)修復持久性有機污染物、放射性核素和重金屬方面發揮了重要作用。目前,已進行了先進的研究工作,以設計改性生物炭複合材料,以實現最大去除效率、可重用性、生物毒性和可持續性。因此,通過設計的生物炭表面選擇性去除污染物,並專注於優化原料、過程變數、適當的奈米材料浸漬、與次級污染物的相互作用、物理環境、持久性和再生,將為基於生物炭的奈米複合材料的安全和商業應用鋪平道路。
