Bochar from typical Vietnamese biomass residues (acacia wood chip, rice husk, bamboo) were assessed for application in remediation of metal-contaminated water. The biochar physical (e.g., surface area, morphology) and chemical (e.g. surface functional groups, proximate and elemental analysis) characteristics were correlated with their effectiveness in removing zinc (Zn2+). The impact of biochar dose, contact time, and initial adsorbate concentration were investigated to determine the adsorption capacity of the biochar for Zn2+. All three effectively remove Zn2+ from aqueous solution, with bamboo biochar especially demonstrating the highest adsorption capacity, showing that the physicochemical properties of biochar are crucial for optimizing their use in environmental applications.
