Magnetic amino-functionalized sludge biochar (Fe@NBC) was prepared via a one-step method for efficient Cr(VI) removal from tailing wastewater. Static adsorption research was conducted to investigate the impacts of solution pH, coexisting ion, reaction times, pollutant concentrations, and reaction temperature on removing Cr(VI) from tailing wastewater. Spectroscopic analysis was used to research the removal mechanisms of Cr(VI). Compared with the original sludge biochar, Fe@NBC exhibited a more developed pore structure and richer reactive sites. Adsorption experiments showed that Fe@NBC achieve...
