Soil amendment products, such as biochar, with both sustained nutrient release and heavy metal retention properties are of great need in agricultural and environmental industries. Herein, we successfully prepared a new biochar material with multinutrient sustained-release characteristics and chromium removal potential derived from distiller grain by wet-process phosphoric acid (WPPA) modification without washing. SEM, TEM TG-IR, in situ DRIFTS and XRD characterization indicated that biochar and polyphosphate formed simultaneously and were tightly intertwined by one-step pyrolysis. The optimal product (PKBC-400) had the most stable carbon structure and an adequate P-O-P structure with less P loss. Batch experiments illustrated that 92.83% P (ortho-P), 85.94% K, 41.49% Fe, 78.42% Al and 65.60% Mg were continuously released in water from PKBC-400 within 63 days, and the maximum Cr removal rate reached 83.57% (50 mg/L K₂Cr₂O₇, pH=3.0) with an increased BET surface area (304.0557 m²/g) after nutrient release. SEM, IC and ³¹P NMR analyses revealed that the dissolution and hydrolysis of polyphosphates not only realized the sustained release of multiple nutrients but also significantly improved the sustained release performance. The proposed resource utilization strategy provided new ideas for Cr hazard control, biomass waste utilization and fertilizer development.
