Abstract

Magnetic biocomposite (MB) was fabricated by co-precipitation of palm seed-based biochar in the presence of Fe3O4particles. The MB sorption behaviour was investigated using nickel as the target pollutant. The MB characterisation revealed that its maintained micro-mesoporous character and high saturation magnetisation (65.8 Am2/kg) enable it to be separated from a solution using a magnet. The nickel removal efficiency of MB, 87% (28 mg/g), was achieved at pH 3; however, this was reduced to 45–75% (15–24 mg/g) in the presence of competing ions. The isotherms and kinetics studies revealed a monolayer interaction via a two-stepped sorption mechanism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
