An efficient method for efficiently cleaning pharmaceutical wastewater and eliminating micro-contaminants is the production of hydrochar from coal waste and sewage sludge using hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) techniques. This procedure produces high-quality hydrochar, a potential adsorbent material for pharmaceutical wastewater treatment, by carefully converting coal waste and sewage sludge in proportions. This novel approach dramatically lowers the dangers to environmental health posed by excessive pharmaceutical pollutants. Essential elements include reaction temperature, reaction duration, feedstock qualities, pressure, total solids, solvents, catalyst composition, and a host of other biochemical and physicochemical parameters that all affect the quality of the hydrochar generated during HTC. To effectively remove pharmaceutical wastewater pollutants and lessen environmental concerns, this paper carefully reviews the use of hydrochar, an adsorbent made from particular ratios of sewage sludge (SS) and coal waste (CW).
