Abstract Exemplified by nine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and four pure compounds, the process of HNO3 oxidation of biochar to produce benzene polycarboxylic acids (BPCAs) molecular markers was investigated. It had been proved that BPCAs could be adopted to describe the carbon black or condensed organic matter in the environment quantitatively and qualitatively. Then, biochar was prepared from cellulose (CE) and lignin (LG) at different temperatures (0—500 ℃). The variations of BPCAs information before and after NaClO oxidation were analyzed and compared by conventional physicochemical characterization. The results indicated that the total content of BPCAs and the relative content of benzene hexacarboxylic acid (B6CA) increased with the increasing preparation temperature of biochars, which meant that the condensation degree of biochar increased with the increasing temperature and the condensation degree of lignin biochar was higher than that of cellulose biochar at the same temperature. NaClO oxidation resulted in a BPCAs mass loss of 1.8%—79.3% in biochar, while there was no obvious change of BPCA proportion in each individual monomer, indicting that NaClO oxidation would not alter the distribution pattern of BPCAs in biochar. Both the ratios of benzene pentacarboxylic acid / benzene hexacarboxylic acid (B5CA/B6CA) and benzene hexacarboxylic acid / benzene tetracarboxylic acid (B6CA/B4CAs) were employed to discriminate the source of environmental carbon black, and the denoted same biochars sources before and after NaClO oxidation confirmed that BPCAs method is highly reliable in identifying biochar sources in the environment.
