Abstract

Abstract

With the increasing production of municipal solid waste (MSW), the disposal of MSW has been one of the annoying problems in the process of urbanization. Recently, the reutilization of MSW as raw materials for biochar production provides a novel approach for MSW disposal. However, the systematic demonstration of the biochar production from MSW and the potential application is still inefficient. Therefore, the main approaches of biochar production from MSW are mainly introduced, and the influences of MSW types and treatment processes on the biochar yields, as well as the characteristics are also analyzed. Furthermore, the potential application of biochar derived from MSW in landfills treatment (i.e. leachate treatment, landfill cover and permeable reactive barrier materials) and soil improvement (i.e. physical and chemical properties and nutritional environment). The results shows that:1) pyrolysis and hydrothermal carbonization are the common ways for biochar production derived from MSW. The produced biochar possesses large specific surface area and porosity, and the contents of some components such as carbon and calcium are much higher than that of the ordinary biochar, which has strong adsorption capacity for pollutants (i.e. iodine ion, copper ion); 2) the characteristics of MSW and its production process exhibits evident effect on the properties of generated biochar; 3) biochar derived from MSW can be used in landfill remediation and soil improvement to remediate the soil, air and groundwater pollution caused by landfill, and improve the nutrients bioavailability in soil. It can provide some guidance for the biochar production from MSW and its application for environmental remediation.
