Abstract
The experimental part of this work has been conducted at ICFAR, Institute of Institute for Chemicals and Fuels from Alternative Resources of the Western University (Ontario, Canada) from September 2022 to February 2023, thanks to the economic support of Politecnico di Torino under a “thesis on proposal” grant. Pharmaceuticals and dyes are relatively new toxic and hazardous contaminants, defined “emerging pollutants”, (EPs), in the aquatic ecosystems where they can cause detrimental effects even at minute concentrations. The novelty of their use poses a limit to the efficiency of state-of-the-art water and wastewater treatment technologies, which are insufficient for their effective removal.
This thesis explored the removal of amoxicillin (AMO), tetracycline (TC), methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) from water through the adsorption on biochar (BC)
