The adsorption efficiency and mechanism of Cu2+were qualitatively and quantitatively assessed in solution by biochar pyrolyzed at 500 ℃ (CSB500 vs. CMB500) using different agricultural wastes (corn straw vs. cow manure). The adsorption kinetic, isotherm fittings and pH effect were investigated and surface characterization was carried out before and after Cu2+adsorption. The Langmuir isotherm was the best fit for both biochars and CMB500 had a higher maximum Cu2+adsorption capacity (78.63 mg g–1) than CSB500 (73.77 mg g–1). The adsorption capacity reached the largest at pH 6.0 with 21.24 mg g–1for CSB500 and 24.28 mg g–1for CMB500. The adsorption mechanisms for Cu2+adsorption were different for the two biochars. Specifically, cation exchange and mineral precipitation contributed 43.5% and 33.2% for Cu2+adsorption by CSB500 respectively. The most important mechanism for CMB500 is mineral precipitation and the contribution is 60.7%, probably due to the high mineral components of CMB500 which are easily precipitated with Cu2+. The correlation analysis illustrated that total Cu2+removal capacity is highly positively correlated with mineral precipitation, pH, ash content, specific surface area and total P of biochar. The results benefit for selection of highly efficient biochar materials based on their physicochemical properties for better Cu2+removal from wastewaters.
