Lanthanum-driven carbon capture via oxidative pyrolysis constructs La2O2CO3@biochar for phosphate adsorption and bacteriostasis

Key Points

• The La2O2CO3@biochar construct significantly enhances phosphate adsorption and bacteriostasis, improving environmental applications.
• In laboratory tests, phosphate adsorption increased by at least 50%, demonstrating the effectiveness of this novel carbon capture method.
• The approach involves oxidative pyrolysis to create La2O2CO3@biochar, capable of environmental remediation via efficient pollutant removal.
• This finding supports the potential for using lanthanum-driven biochar materials in sustainable environmental strategies.
