Abstract To develop an efficient and economic technology to remove nitrate from constructed wetland in high-latitude areas under the conditions of autumn temperature, modified hydrophyte biochars were prepared with aquatic plant litters collected from constructed wetlands. Laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the removal of nitrate from aqueous solution and wastewater by modified hydrophyte biochars. The experimental results showed that the modified biochars (MRB and MCB) carried positive charge and that Zeta potentials were respectively +5.46mV and +2.31mV. The second order model fit the nitrate sorption kinetics of modified hydrophyte biochars with a high coefficient of determination (R2>0.99). Freundlich isotherms performed well to fit the nitrate sorption data (R2>0.98) of modified hydrophyte biochars when compared to Langmuir isotherms. The maximum adsorption capacity of MRB and MCB to nitrate was 14.6661mg/g and 5.5559mg/g, respectively. Batch adsorption experiments also showed that both initial solution pH and coexisting anions could affect the adsorption of nitrate onto modified hydrophyte biochars. Modified hydrophyte biochars could efficiently remove nitrate from wastewater in constructed wetland.
