Green technology approach for capturing pollution washed from transportation infrastructures
项目名称: Green technology approach for capturing pollution washed from transportation infrastructures
摘要: The aim of proposed study is to produce and investigate a carbon-based substance, namely biochar, as a new material for the in-situ adsorption of pollutants carried by the stormwater runoff from the roads. A series of lab-scale experiments will be designed to optimize biochar�s microscopic structures and to determine its adsorption capacities. The particular source material, and applied techniques for obtaining biochar may influence its final properties; therefore, the initial set of experiments will be focused on testing properties of biochar manufactured by different techniques, temperature set-ups and oxygen-free environments. The long-term spin-offs from proposed research are aimed toward (a) development of the new substance based on biochar that could be used for the emergency recovery of spills, and (b) exploring possibilities of using biochar as an addictive to pervious concrete or asphalt.
