Abstract

Mercury (Hg) is a grave environmental pollutant that poses a major global threat to human life. It is one of the ten “chemicals of concern” according to the World Health Organisation. Protection of the environment and human health from the releases of mercury and its compounds by anthropogenic activities is key for the sustainability of the biosphere. The Minamata Convention on mercury for ensuring sustainable production and consumption patterns is a significant component of achieving Sustainable Development Goal 12 (SDG 12). An adsorption technique biochar has been applied to remove Hg from polluted and wastewaters using biochar produced from different biowastes. Mercury pollution in water is associated with toxicity to the environment and living organisms. This book chapter critically evaluates the chemical behaviour of mercury, environmental occurrence and sources, mechanism, and toxicity. The chapter also examines the application of biowaste biochar techniques for mercury removal via adsorption, factors influencing mercury adsorption, the role of biochar in Hg remediation technologies, water treatment technologies, innovative approaches for the treatment of mercury, regeneration and economic challenges of biowaste-derived adsorbents, management of post-adsorption materials, green economy framework, and challenges and future research directions. A significant aspect of the book chapter is on the use of biowaste biochar (green chemistry approach) to transform mercury and its compounds into less hazardous forms. With a green technological approach using biowaste biochar can transform mercury and its compounds into less hazardous forms to guarantee mercury absence in the environment and water systems.
