Removal of cadmium in aqueous solution using wheat straw biochar: effect of minerals and mechanism

Abstract

The biochars were produced from wheat straw (WSBC) at different pyrolytic temperatures. Biochars were characterized by multiple instrumental techniques and were applied to remove Cd from aqueous solution. The removal mechanism was explored, and the quantitative information regarding the relative contribution of related mechanisms to Cd sorption on biochars was provided. The results showed that pseudo-second-order kinetic model, TC (two-compartment) model, and Freundlich isotherm could well fit the process of Cd sorption on biochars. The sorption could be divided into fast and slow adsorption stages. The order of the Cd removal capacity by biochar was WSBC700 > WSBC500 > WSBC300. Adsorption amount of Cd by biochar reduced when the biochar was rinsed with 1.0 M HCl, which indicated that acid-soluble minerals in biochar played an important role during the Cd removal process, especially for the biochar obtained at high pyrolytic temperature. Various equipments were used to investigate the interaction mechanism between biochar and Cd. Mineral precipitation, surface complexation, and cation-π interaction were the main mechanisms of Cd sorption on the biochars. The contribution of cation-π mechanism was in the range of 25.42–48.58%, 2.18–19.30% for surface complexation and 32.12–72.41% for mineral precipitation, respectively. The pyrolytic temperature significantly influenced the removal capacity and mechanism of Cd on biochars. The cation-π mechanism was predominant for biochar obtained at lower pyrolytic temperature. However, mineral precipitation mechanism played a crucial role for biochar obtained at high pyrolytic temperature. These results are helpful for the design or screening of "engineered biochar" to act as sorbents to remove or immobilized Cd in polluted soil or water.
