Water is a vital source which plays significant role in the environmental and anthropogenic processes. Wastewater treatment enables safe discharge of the water that was used for various human activities. Biochar is an emerging technology that provides wide range of application in the environmental management including wastewater treatment.
The aim of this work is to thoroughly study possible applications of the biochar in the wastewater treatment and outline its importance and advantages compared to other remediation treatments. This work also focuses on investigating current trends of the biochar application in the wastewater treatment, feasible difficulties with its implementation and possible future perspectives.
In the result it can be seen that biochar has various possible wastewater treatment applications. It is proven to be efficient in the removal of wide range of contaminants due to its possessing of the numerous sorption mechanisms and additional available physical and chemical modifications for enhanced performance. However, more research and testing are needed to ensure safe and efficient use of biochar in the wastewater treatment.
