The synthesis of clay-biochar composite has been recognized as an effective way to enhance the removal of pollutants. The interaction between clay mineral and biomass during thermal pyrolysis and the sorption capacity for ionic/nonionic organic containments have not been elaborated. In this study, two types of biochar were obtained from pyrolytic carbonization of the cellulosic-rich corn straw (C) and lignin-rich pine wood (P) at 500 or 700 °C. Typical clay minerals kaolinite and montmorillonite were selected to prepare clay-biochar composite. The results showed that the addition of clay mineral could strengthen dehydration reaction of corn straw biomass and reinforce its carbon structure. Montmorillonite-biochar composite owned more CC functional groups and porous structure than kaolinite-biochar composite. The addition of clay minerals could promote electrostatic attraction of ionic formed norfloxacin (NOR) on clay-pine wood biochar. However, the sorption capacity of nonionic diethyl phthalate (DEP) adsorption on clay-corn straw biochar decreased, owing to that clay increased the compactness of the biochar carbon structure, thus inhabited hydrophobic partition of nonionic organic compounds on disordered carbon fraction. The results from this study provide insights into the suitable contaminated site remediation by clay-biochar composite.
