Abstract
In this study, a spent mushroom substrate (SMS) from Lentinus edodes cultivation was used to prepare biochar (BC) and magnetic biochar (MBC) at high temperatures. The magnetic field strength of MBC was proved via VSM analysis. The results of the nitrogen adsorption‒desorption isotherms of BC and MBC showed that MBC exhibited stronger adsorption, and SEM was performed to compare the microstructures of BC and MBC. TEM was performed to compare the distributions of C, O, and Fe. The FT-IR and XRD results revealed changes in the structure and the formation of new substances after magnetization; that is, MBC was more conducive to the adsorption and recovery of pesticides. Moreover, a method for the detection of tetramethrin, beta-cypermethrin, and fenvalerate in water samples (tap water, lake water, and river water) was established, and this method combined the use of MBC as adsorbent and high-performance liquid chromatography. Moreover, great linearity of the method was obtained in the range of 0.5–2.5 μg/mL; the recoveries in real samples were in the range of 70.20–73.32%, and the RSDs were in the range of 0.22–1.09%. The method is simple and effective, is suitable for the detection of pyrethroids in water, and has certain application potential.
