The invention discloses a preparation method of modified
biochar, which comprises water chestnut stem
biochar and is prepared by the following steps: firstly
drying water chestnut stems in the sun, then cleaning with water to remove impurities,
drying to constant weight, crushing and sieving; the preparation method comprises the following steps: adding the
slurry biomass into a MgCl2. 6H2O solution, mixing and stirring to uniformly mix the
slurry biomass with the MgCl2. 6H2O solution, and freeze-
drying the residual
slurry biomass to constant weight by using a refrigerating
machine. And putting the freeze-dried
water caltrop stems into a tubular furnace, heating to 200-600 DEG C in an
inert gas
atmosphere, calcining, and cooling to obtain the
water caltrop stems. The invention has the advantages of easily available raw materials, low cost, easy popularization and application, high efficiency, economy,
environmental protection and the like. Through wide experimental screening, waste water chestnut stems and the like are fully utilized for resource conversion, and waste is turned into wealth. A contrast experiment
screening result shows that compared with unmodified
biochar, the biochar modified by the water chestnut stems through a specific process has the
advantage that the adsorption capacity of heavy
metal lead and
cadmium is improved.
