Key Points

This research aims to assess the effectiveness of biochar in adsorbing endocrine-disrupting chemicals and to explore the underlying mechanisms.
Analyzed the adsorption capacity of biochar for various endocrine-disrupting chemicals.
Investigated the interaction mechanisms between biochar and EDCs.
Employed experimental trials to evaluate performance under different conditions.
Biochar demonstrated significant capacity for adsorbing several types of endocrine-disrupting chemicals.
Findings suggest specific mechanisms by which biochar interacts with EDCs are effective in reducing hormonal interference.

Implication

Research investigates how biochar adsorbs endocrine-disrupting chemicals, indicating its potential for health protection.

Abstract

Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in the environment can interfere with the normal levels of hormones in human bodies, posing threats to human health.
