RESUMEN
The term "biomass" encompasses all substances found in the natural world that were once alive or derived from living organisms or their byproducts. These substances consist of organic molecules containing hydrogen, typically oxygen, frequently nitrogen, and small amounts of heavy, alkaline earth and alkali metals. Magnetic biochar refers to a type of material derived from biomass that has been magnetized typically by adding magnetic components such as magnetic iron oxides to display magnetic properties. These materials are extensively applicable in widespread areas like environmental remediation and catalysis. The magnetic properties of these compounds made them ideal for practical applications through their easy separation from a reaction mixture or environmental sample by applying a magnetic field. With the evolving global strategy focused on protecting the planet and moving towards a circular, cost-effective economy, natural compounds, and biomass have become particularly important in the field of biochemistry. The current research explores a comparative analysis of the versatility and potential of biomass for eliminating dyes as a sustainable, economical, easy, compatible, and biodegradable method. The elimination study focused on the removal of various dyes as pollutants. Various operational parameters which influenced the dye removal process were also discussed. Furthermore, the research explained, in detail, adsorption kinetic models, types of isotherms, and desorption properties of magnetic biochar adsorbents. This comprehensive review offers an advanced framework for the effective use of magnetic biochar, removing dyes from textile wastewater.

The production of antibacterial colored textiles using nanomaterials (NMs) has become an ideal goal from both a research and industrial perspective. In this study, the clean synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on polyamide fabrics were performed using mullein extract for the first time. Natural dyes were extracted from mullein leaves using an ultrasonic method, with an optimal amount of 15 g/L. The synthesized AgNPs in different ratios of mullein extract and Ag ions were analyzed (using UV-visible spectroscopy) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). It was found that AgNPs synthesized with a ratio of 1:4 of mullein extract: to Ag ions had a diameter of 85 nm. The active site groups of the synthesized AgNPs were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Nylon fabrics dyed with different ratios of mullein extract and Ag ions exhibited acceptable color strength values (K/S) of 3.36. Furthermore, the reduction in bacterial growth for dyed fabrics improved with an increase in the ratio of Ag ions, with a 100% reduction observed for a sample dyed with mullein extract: Ag ions at a ratio of 1:4. Overall, this method offers a simple, low-cost, and compatible process with environment without the consumption of any chemicals to producing nylon with acceptable antibacterial and dyeing properties.
