• Distribution of PAHs, PCBs, and PCDD/Fs in products from full-scale relevant pyrolysis of diverse contaminated organic waste 

      Sørmo, Erlend; Krahn, Katinka Muri; Flatabø, Gudny Øyre; Hartnik, Thomas; Arp, Hans Peter Heinrich; Cornelissen, Gerard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Biomass pyrolysis is the anoxic thermal conversion of biomass into a carbon rich, porous solid, often called biochar. This could be a better waste management alternative for contaminated organic wastes than incineration, ...
    • The impact of biochar's physicochemical properties on sorption of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) 

      Skjennum, Karen Ane Frøyland; Krahn, Katinka Muri; Sørmo, Erlend; Wolf, Raoul; Goranov, Aleksandar I.; Hatcher, Patrick G.; Hartnik, Thomas; Arp, Hans Peter Heinrich; Zimmerman, Andrew R.; Zhang, Yaxin; Cornelissen, Gerard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)
      To better characterize properties governing the sorption of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) to biochar, twenty-three diverse biochars were characterized and evaluated as sorbents for perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). ...
