Influence of water washing treatment on Ulva prolifera-derived biochar properties and sorption characteristics of ofloxacin

Abstract The influences of water washing treatment on the properties of Ulva prolifera-derived biochar (U.P-biochar) and its sorption characteristics of ofloxacin (OFL) were investigated. The results showed that the water washing treatment significantly changed the physiochemical structures of U.P-b...
