Latest Patents

Lyu is named on 1 patent: “Layered Multi-Metal-Oxide-Based Magnetic Biochar and Preparation Method and Use Thereof.” The invention describes impregnating biomass with an iron salt solution, adjusting the material’s pH, and pyrolyzing it to produce magnetic biochar. The biochar is then combined with a solution containing at least two metal salts and subjected to hydrothermal treatment to create a layered, multi-metal-oxide material.

The resulting biochar is described as having a large specific surface area, magnetic properties, a layered morphology, and strong adsorption capacity. Its proposed uses include treating water contaminated with arsenic and cadmium and reducing the availability of these contaminants in farmland soil. These applications aim to lower risks to crops and support food safety.

Career Highlights

Lyu’s listed affiliation connects his work with agricultural environmental research. The patent focuses on applying engineered biochar to challenges involving contaminated water and soil.
