| Abstract | Utilizing waste, such as sewage sludge, into biochar fits the circular economy concept. It maximizes the reuse and recycling of waste materials in the wastewater treatment plant. The experiments were conducted to assess: (1) the impact of the temperature on the properties of biochar from sewage sludge (400 degrees C, 500 degrees C, 600 degrees C, 700 degrees C); (2) how the physical activation (CO2, hot water) or chemical modification using (MgCl2, KOH) could affect the removal of ammonia nitrogen and phosphorus from filtrate collected from sludge dewatering filter belts or synthetic solution, wherein the concentration of ammonium nitrogen and phosphorus were similar to the filtrate. Based on the Brunner-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface and the type and concentration of surface functional groups for the second stage, biochar was selected and produced at 500 degrees C. The modification of biochar had a statistically significant effect on removing nitrogen and phosphorus from the media. The best results were obtained for biochar modified with potassium hydroxide. For this trial, 15%/17% (filtrate/synthetic model solution) and 72%/86% nitrogen and phosphorus removal, respectively, were achieved. |
