Biochars from contaminated sewage sludge as sustainable PFAS-sorbents for water and soil clean-up

Krahn, Katinka Muri (Master thesis, 2022)

Due to the considerable persistence, mobility, and toxicity of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), techniques for the remediation of soil and water contaminated with PFAS are urgently needed. The potential for using ...

Distribution of PAHs, PCBs, and PCDD/Fs in products from full-scale relevant pyrolysis of diverse contaminated organic waste

Sørmo, Erlend; Krahn, Katinka Muri; Flatabø, Gudny Øyre; Hartnik, Thomas; Arp, Hans Peter Heinrich; Cornelissen, Gerard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)

Biomass pyrolysis is the anoxic thermal conversion of biomass into a carbon rich, porous solid, often called biochar. This could be a better waste management alternative for contaminated organic wastes than incineration, ...

Eco-toxicological and climate change effects of sludge thermal treatments: Pathways towards zero pollution and negative emissions

Morales Arancibia, Marjorie Alejandra; Arp, Hans Peter Heinrich; Varela, Gabriela Castro; Asimakopoulos, Alexandros; Sørmo, Erlend; Peters, Gregory; Cherubini, Francesco (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)

Formation and availability of methylmercury in mercury-contaminated sediment: effects of activated carbon and biochar amendments

Sørmo, Erlend; Silvani, Ludovica; Braaten, Hans Fredrik Veiteberg; Bryntesen, Tina; Eek, Espen; Cornelissen, Gerard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)

Purpose As the formation of toxic and bioaccumulative methylmercury (MeHg) in Hg-contaminated sediments is of great concern worldwide, suitable remediation options are needed. Activated carbon (AC) amendment is a contested ...
