This research explores the effects of milling on fecal sludge (FS) biochar with an emphasis on milling time (5, 10, and 15 min) and ball-to-powder ratio (BPR) (4.533 g/g, 9.067 g/g, and 10.5 g/g). FS biochar was prepared through slow co-pyrolysis of a 50:50 mixture (by weight) of fecal sludge and rice husk powder at 550 °C. The resultant FS biochar with good qualities was subjected to methylene blue (MB) dye adsorption at varying FS biochar weights (0.05 g, 0.1 g, and 0.15 g) and adsorption durations. The BSA peaked at 50 m²/g for a BPR of 10.5 g/g and a milling duration of 10 min. Prolonged milling (15 min) led to structural degradation and reduced BET surface area (BSA). The pore volume peaked at a BPR of 9.067 g/g for shorter milling times and 10.5 g/g for extended milling. The SEM revealed that a milling time of 10 min at a BPR of 9.067 g/g provided the best balance between particle size reduction and uniform morphology, minimizing agglomeration. MB adsorption revealed that FS biochar milled for 10 min and 9.067 g/g BPR demonstrated the best properties. These findings highlight the potential of FS biochar for applications in environmental remediation and agricultural fields, contributing to resource recovery from FS.
