Abstract

In the past decades, the amount of biomass waste has continuously increased in human living environments, and it has attracted more and more attention. Biomass is regarded as the most high-quality and cost-effective precursor material for the preparation carbon of adsorbents and catalysts. The application of biomass carbon has extensively explored. The efficient application of biomass carbon in organic wastewater purification were reviewed. With briefly introducing biomass types, the latest progress of Machine learning in guiding the preparation and application of biomass carbon was emphasized. The key factors in constructing efficient biomass carbon for adsorption and catalytic applications were discussed. Based on the functional groups, rich pore structure and active site of biomass carbon, it exhibits high efficiency in water purification performance in the fields of adsorption and catalysis. In addition, out of a firm belief in the enormous potential of biomass carbon, the remaining challenges and future research directions were discussed.
