The invention provides a preparation method of a
wetland plant and pig
manure composite
biochar, and an application of the composite
biochar in the adsorption of
heavy metals in water. Typical wetlandplants of Poyang Lake are selected, the aerial parts of the
wetland plants are harvested in the
growing season, pig
manure is obtained from a pig farm, the collected
wetland plant biomass is washed with water, dried and crushed, the pig
manure is dried and crushed sequentially, and the
plant biomass and pig manure
biomass are mixed according to a ratio 1:1 to form a mixed biomass;
chitosan and alkali residues are dried, and are crushed and mixed according to a
mass ratio of 1:1; the mixed biomass and the obtained
chitosan and alkali residue
powder are mixed according to a ratio of 10:1 to prepare a composite biomass; and the composite biomass is added to an iron solution, anaerobic
hydrothermal carbonization is carried out to form the composite
biochar, and the composite biochar is used for adsorbing
heavy metals in water. The preparation method fully utilizes several typical wastes in the Poyang
Lake basin, achieves the purpose of treating
pollution with wastes, and also has the advantages of wide sources of raw materials, low cost, simplicity, and easiness in operation, and the prepared biochar adsorbent is nontoxic and harmless, and is friendly to the environment.
