Abstract

Value-added hybrid materials can be produced by using KW as raw material. It was found that the morphologies of the hybrid carbon materials derived from KW presented similar structure with those made by pure saccharides, and mainly depended on the valence state of the iron. Both the cations (Fe(III), Fe(II)) and the anions (Cl-, SO42-, NO3-) of the iron salts significantly affected the reaction pathway of organic compounds and the retention of the nutrients in the KW. The products developed in this study are applicable for adsorption and catalysis in environmental and catalytic fields.
