Biochar, an eco, and renewable organic matter are often studied for its potential in the removal of pollutants, especially wastewater treatment. Experiments were conducted. To improve the efficiency of pure biochar, research was undertaken on biochar composites that were combined with various active components. The effectiveness of different biochar composites on Chromium (VI) removal from an aqueous solution was examined in this research using a review of many journals. Biochar composites were created prior to post-pyrolysis of pure biochar treated with relevant article active components. The conclusions of characterization techniques such as electron microscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and weighing scale were discussed and analyzed. Temperature and time of treatment affected adsorption and surface diameter pore size, according to the results of the parameter research
