This study evaluates hydrochars derived from fish and shrimp waste as sustainable adsorbents for multi-pollutant removal, benchmarked against corn hydrochar and commercial activated carbon. Seven model pollutants (acetaminophen, doxycycline hyclate, tetracycline, methylene blue, methyl orange, 4-nitrophenol, and potassium dichromate) were examined to elucidate adsorption behavior across different molecular polarities. Adsorption kinetics were best described by the Two-PFO model, confirming dual-phase uptake involving rapid surface binding and slower intraparticle diffusion. Fish hydrochar achieved the highest tetracycline affinity (7.5&nbsp;mg&nbsp;g<sup>−1</sup>; K<sub>L</sub>&nbsp;=&nbsp;0.077&nbsp;L&nbsp;mg<sup>−1</sup>), while shrimp hydrochar exhibited the largest capacity (q<sub>max</sub>&nbsp;=&nbsp;81.3&nbsp;mg&nbsp;g<sup>−1</sup>; K<sub>L</sub>&nbsp;=&nbsp;0.015&nbsp;L&nbsp;mg<sup>−1</sup>). Thermodynamic analysis revealed endothermic and entropy-driven adsorption (ΔH&nbsp;=&nbsp;+3.6&nbsp;kJ/mol; ΔS&nbsp;=&nbsp;+20&nbsp;J&nbsp;mol<sup>−1</sup>&nbsp;K<sup>−1</sup>). Spectroscopic (FTIR, XPS) and textural (BET) analyses, supported by DFT-derived electronic descriptors (ΔE, μ, α), demonstrated that adsorption was governed by the interplay between oxygenated surface groups (–OH, C=O, –COOH) and pollutant polarity. The complementary adsorption traits of fish hydrochar (strong affinity) and shrimp hydrochar (high capacity) highlight the potential of marine-waste hydrochars as low-cost, renewable alternatives to activated carbon for multi-pollutant wastewater treatment.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Structure, surface chemistry, and DFT-based mechanistic insights of seafood-waste hydrochars for pollutant adsorption","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-04-21 01:33:42.023401","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Hydrochar; Hydrothermal carbonization; Adsorption; Marine biowaste; Kinetic model","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2026,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2026-01-13","DateCreate":"2026-01-13","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:001644196300001","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1016/j.biombioe.2025.108829"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":437121,"PubliDate":2026,"Pagination":"108829","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"208","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":146987,"SerRR":"Biomass and Bioenergy.
