Abstract
⺠Oxytetracycline (OTC) sorbed to biochar according to pseudo-second-order kinetics. ⺠OTC sorption increased with increasing pH but decreased at high pH values. ⺠Zwitterions are the most sorbed oxytetracycline species on biochar. ⺠Cu2+ strongly enhances the sorption of OTC to biochar through metal bridging. ⺠Ï-Ï interactions and metal bridging were the main OTC-biochar sorption mechanisms.
