Abstract

  • Premodification of biochar with metal salts can be an effective strategy to prepare effective adsorbents.

  • Extensive physicochemical and structural characterizations were performed to delineate the properties of magnesium-modified biochar.

  • Magnesium improved the physical and surface characteristics of the biochar.

  • Magnesium-loaded biochar demonstrated promising potential as an adsorbent for nitrate.

  • Multiple pathways governed the adsorption mechanism of nitrate on magnesium-loaded biochar.
