        abstract = {Heavy metal pollution, particularly Cadmium contmination in aquatic ecosystem has significant environmental and public health impact due to cadmium toxicity, their persistance in environment and ability to bioaccumulate in aquatic organisms and higher food chain. Effective and sustainable methods for the removal of cadmium from aquatic ecosystem are thus important as traditional methods such as chemical precipitation, ion exchange and filtrations are often costly and generated large amount of secondary wastes. This study investigates the influence of sugarcane bagasse biochar as a bio-absorbent for the cadmium metal remediation from aquatic ecosystem. The absorption potential of sugarcane bagasse biochar which is a modified form of bagasse was eveluated to understand their effectiveness in metal removal. Results indicate that biochar exhibits a high affinity for cadmium ions particularly when the biochar concentartion is higher as the surface area for absorption increases. This study highlights the benefits of utilizing sugarcane bagasse: as a sustainable and eco-friendly solution for reducing heavy metal pollution, adding value to agricultural wastes by converting them to functioning material.},
