Magnetic porous biochars (MCHCₗ, MCHAc) with nanostructure on surfaces were prepared from penicillin fermentation dregs by pyrolysis with K₂FeO₄ activation and used in penicillin adsorption. MCHCₗ and MCHAc had high BET surface areas of 672 and 735 m²/g, respectively; mainly be attributed to the activation of K₂FeO₄ as well as acid pickling. Saturation magnetizations of MCHCₗ and MCHAc were 75.29 and 42.45 emu/g, respectively; the magnetism was mainly derived from the Fe₃O₄ and Fe₃C in magnetic biochars. MCHCₗ had nano sticks of ~ 80 nm and MCHAc had petal-like slice of ~ 30 nm on surfaces. The maximum adsorption capacities of penicillin on MCHCₗ and MCHAc were 196 and 322 mg/g at 308 K, respectively. The adsorptions of penicillin on MCHCₗ and MCHAc were consistent with pseudo primary kinetics and the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model, and thermodynamic analysis indicated that the adsorption mechanism included physical and chemical adsorption.
