Elaboration and Characterization of a Biochar from Wastewater Sludge and Olive Mill Wastewater
The objective of this study is to valorize two waste products which, until now, caused major problems concerning their management and impacts on the environment and health. This study concerns the sludge of the wastewater treatment station of the city of Fez-Morocco and the olive mill wastewater, which are produced, respectively, in quantities of around 51,100 t/year and 514,350 m3/year, by pyrolysis for the production of biochar. The obtained biochar was characterized by physicochemical and spectroscopic analyses. The results show that the biochar is close to neutrality and is characterized by an important organic and mineral load; further, it is endowed with a porous surface, which could facilitate the adsorption of different polluting substances, composed mainly by micropores. It is mainly composed of alcohol, phenol, carboxyl and phenyl groups, as well as other mineral elements including silica and calcite. The composition, structure and morphology of the biochar thus prepared recommend its use in various fields, such as the treatment of pollutants, organic amendment, the reinforcement of polymers and as a secondary building material.
