Abstract
The present disclosure provides an apparatus for absorption of contaminants. Further, the apparatus may include a substrate comprised of one or more of a biodegradable material and a non-biodegradable material. Further, the apparatus may include an absorbent medium incorporated with the substrate. Further, the apparatus may be configured to be disposed on a surface. Further, the absorbent medium includes a biochar. Further, the absorbent medium may be configured for absorbing one or more contaminants from one or more of the surface and an environment associated with the surface.
Claims20
An apparatus for absorption of contaminants, the apparatus comprising:
- a substrate comprised of at least one of a biodegradable material and non-biodegradable material;
- and
- an absorbent medium incorporated with the substrate, wherein the apparatus is configured to be disposed on a surface, wherein the absorbent medium comprises a biochar, wherein the absorbent medium is configured for absorbing at least one contaminant from at least one of the surface and an environment associated with the surface.
An apparatus for absorption of contaminants, the apparatus comprising:
- a substrate comprised of at least one of a biodegradable material and a non-biodegradable material;
- and
- an absorbent medium incorporated with the substrate, wherein the apparatus is configured to be disposed on a surface, wherein the absorbent medium comprises a biochar, wherein the absorbent medium is configured for absorbing at least one contaminant from at least one of the surface and an environment, wherein the absorbent medium further comprises at least one microorganism, wherein the at least one microorganism at least one of consumes and metabolizes the at least one contaminant absorbed by the absorbent medium, wherein the at least one contaminant decomposes based on the at least one of the consumption and the metabolization of the at least one contaminant.
An apparatus for absorption of contaminants, the apparatus comprising:
- a substrate comprised of at least one of a biodegradable material and a non-biodegradable material;
- and
- an absorbent medium incorporated with the substrate, wherein the apparatus is configured to be disposed on a surface, wherein the absorbent medium comprises a biochar, wherein the absorbent medium is configured for absorbing at least one contaminant from at least one of the surface and an environment associated with the surface, wherein the absorbent medium further comprises at least one seed, wherein the at least one seed germinates into at least one seedling, wherein the at least one seedling absorbs at least one carbon compound from the environment.
An apparatus for providing a habitat for microorganisms, the apparatus comprising:
- a substrate comprised of at least one of a biodegradable material and a non-biodegradable material;
- and
- an absorbent medium incorporated with the substrate, wherein the apparatus is configured to be disposed on a surface, wherein the absorbent medium comprises a biochar, wherein the absorbent medium further comprises at least one microorganism, wherein the apparatus is configured to maintain a controlled environment condition for providing the habitat for one or more microorganisms.
