Induced changes of pyrolysis temperature on the physicochemical traits of sewage sludge and on the potential ecological risks
Abstract Biochar from sewage sludge is a low-cost sorbent that may be used for several environmental functions. This study evaluates the induced effects of pyrolysis temperature on the physicochemical characteristics of sewage sludge (SS) biochar produced at 350 (SSB350), 450 (SSB450) and 600 (SSB60...
