[Display omitted] •Sorption mechanism of sulfamethazine (SMT) to different biochars was observed.•The presence of methacrylic and citric acids generally enhanced SMT adsorption.•Humic acid restrained the sorption of SMT to biochar produced at 600°C.•Bovine serum albumin showed a complicated effect o...
