Higher adsorption capacities were observed for biochars with hydroxyl and carbonyl groups in mixed solutions.
Methyl orange and acetaminophen showed competitive adsorption patterns with methylene blue in various mixtures.
The study employed a mechanistic approach examining adsorption of multiple organic pollutants using biochar.
These findings suggest improved strategies for water purification can be developed through understanding adsorption mechanisms.
