Abstract

Biochar is a charcoal that produce from biomass feedstock and act as promising agent for many application such as wastewater treatment, energy production, soil amendment and gas storage. This review summarizes recent research development on production, properties and application of biochar. This review summarize production technology of biochar with different biomass feedstock. Besides, this review summarizes the properties such as microstructure and elemental content of biochar. Also, this review focus on the application of biochar in removal of dyes contains in wastewater. This review focus on biochar due to its large surface area and high adsorption capacity which are main factors in the removal of dyes. The adsorption performance of biochar with different biomass feedstock in removal of different dyes are summarized. This review also discusses the future research on production of biochar and its application in different field. As a conclusion, biochar technology is a low cost, high energy efficient, environmental friendly and new solution with great prospect in removal of dyes.
