The resulting biochar exhibited a large specificsurface area (933.39 m^(2)/g), a rich porous structure (1.044 cm3/g), and abundant active sites.Consequently, the prepared boron-doped porous biochar exhibited higher efficiency in adsorbingtetracycline with a maximum adsorption capacity of 413.223 mg/g, which significantlyexceeded that of unmodified biochar andmost commercial and reported adsorbents.The correlation analysis between the adsorption capacity and adsorbent characteristics revealedthat the formation of the –BCO_(2) group enhanced π–π electron donor–acceptor interactionsbetween boron-doped porous biochar and tetracycline. This mechanism mainlycontributed to the enhanced adsorption of tetracycline by boron-doped porous biochar. Additionally,the as-prepared boron-doped porous biochar exhibited broad applications in removingantibiotics (tetracycline), phenolics (bisphenol A), and dyes (methylene blue andrhodamine B). Moreover, the boron-doped porous biochar exhibited satisfactory stability,and its adsorption capacity can be nearly completely regenerated through simple heat treatment.This study provides new insights into the effectiveness of boron-doped carbonaceousmaterials in removing antibiotic contaminants.展开更多

In this study, one-step pyrolysis method was introduced to prepare porous biochar from kapok fibers, and effect of pyrolysis temperature on structure and electrochemical performance of the porous biochar was investigated. It was found that pyrolysis temperature played an important role in determining microstructure of the biochar. At the pyrolysis temperature of 750 ℃, the as-prepared biochar (CKF-750) represented a largest specific surface area of 1125.7 m^2 g^-1 and pore vol- ume of 0.7130 m^3 g^-1, and hence brings CKF-750 a highest specific capacitance of 283 F g^-1 at a current density of I A g^-1 in a 6 mol L^-1 KOH electrolyte. Furthermore, the cycle stability of CKF-750 was wonderful, and the specific capacitance retained almost constant after 10000 cycles. Therefore, the pyrolysis tem- perature of 750 ℃ is optimal for the preparation of porous hiochar as an outstanding electrode material for supercapacitor.展开更多
