Abstract
- Recently, salt-assisted pyrolyzation has been deemed an emerging and efficient method for the preparation of biochars due to its facile operation as well as its good structural and chemical properties. In this work, biochars (MBCx) are prepared by heating bamboo powders in eutectic salts (Li<subscript>2</subscript>CO<subscript>3</subscript> + K<subscript>2</subscript>CO<subscript>3</subscript>) at 500–600 °C in the air. Multiple technologies are employed to examine the physiochemical properties of bamboo biochars. Correlations between heating temperature and structural features and carbon dioxide uptakes of bamboo biochars have been investigated. The results show that heating temperature has a significant influence on the physicochemical properties of bamboo biochars. With the elevation of the heating temperature, the defect structures of bamboo biochars gradually ascend, especially when the heating temperature reaches 600 °C. MBCx biochars visibly exceed conventional bamboo biochar prepared via pyrolyzation in a nitrogen stream free of salt addition. Pyrolysis of bamboo in eutectic salts endows biochars with higher oxygen content and more carbon defects, which likely accounts for their better CO<subscript>2</subscript> capture activities.
