Biowaste Valorization Using Hydrothermal Carbonization for Potential Wastewater Treatment Applications

In today’s world, due to population increase, there are many alarming and potential catastrophic problems like climate change, environmental pollution an enormous mass of wastes constantly produced by humankind find innovative solutions for the management, recycling, valorization biowaste from agricultural production, food processing, organic household residues. The search sustainable efficient wastewater treatment technologies has gained scientific interest recently; particular focus is on using produce hydrochars (HCs) via hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) process used as adsorbent materials dye, heavy metal, emerging pollutant removal. HTC derived renewable resources environmentally friendly adequate way adsorb pollutants such inorganic molecules wastewaters. This review focuses advantages which lead improved properties obtained, making them highly in treatment. information presented this paper was most recent publications field. Future perspectives HC should consider possibilities scale-up, pretreatment biowastes, optimal parameters HCs applied removal
