Optimization of synthesis conditions of hydrochar and pyrohydrochar from fish bones for their use in the adsorption of fluoride from water by Sergio Armando Cruz Briano, Nahum Andrés Medellín Castillo, Juan Carlos Moreno Piraján, Liliana Giraldo Gutiérrez, Guillermo Javier Castro Larragoitia, Pablo Delgado Sánchez, Alfredo Israel Flores Rojas, Hilda Guadalupe Cisneros Ontiveros

“…In addition, HC1 and PHC5 materials were characterized by N2 physisorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), CHNS elemental analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). These materials showed differences among themselves, where the higher specific area of PCH5 with 137 m2 g−1, with respect to HC1 with 119 m2 g−1, stands out, as well as a higher concentration of basic sites, being 1.65 and 1.40 meq g−1 for HC1 and PHC5, respectively, on the other hand, the FTIR showed the same functional groups present on the surface, although in the SEM it was observed that the surface of HC1 presented small fractures, which disappeared when subjected to the pyrolysis process, in addition, the TGA showed a greater amount of organic matter in HC1 that could affect the adsorption of fluorides. …”
