Adsorptive Removal of Cr(VI) and Cu(II) Ions from Water Solution using Graphene Oxide-Manganese Ferrite (GMF) Nanomaterials
Chromium (Cr) and copper (Cu) are heavy metals known for their dangerous effect towards human health and could enter into human body mainly through ingestion. Over the years, different treatment methods have been used to eliminate heavy metal from raw water source and these include (co)precipitation, coagulation/flocculation, adsorption and ion- exchange. Nonetheless, adsorption is the most pro...

An intensive use of pesticides in agriculture has caused serious health and environmental problems. Various adsorbents and photocatalysts have been used for the remediation of pesticides from aqueous environment. In recent years, nanomaterials viz. nanocomposites and nano-biocomposites are playing a promising role towards the removal of pesticides. The present review focuses the updated informa...
متن کاملVersatility of oxidoreductases in the remediation of environmental pollutants.
Enzymatic transformation of recalcitrant and other pollutants is a promising eco-friendly alternative to physico-chemical methods in environmental remediation. This review summarizes some of the significant advances in applications of oxidative enzymes for treatment of xenobiotics. The review also discusses some of the underlying principles and enzyme reaction mechanisms in the detoxification o...
متن کاملReductive Remediation of Pollutants Using Metals
Metal systems have been extensively used for the abiotic remediation of recalcitrant pollutants. Zero-valent metals such as iron (Fe 0 ), zinc (Zn 0 ), magnesium (Mg 0 ) have been used for the reductive dechlorination of organic compounds Nanoscale zero-valent iron particles have been reported to be very effective for the transformation and detoxification of a wide variety of contaminants, such...
متن کاملPhotoassisted remediation of toxic chemical warfare agents using titania nanomaterials
Introduction Remediation of environment polluted with toxic chemical warfare agents (CWA) is a challenging task for authorities who deal with public health and environmental safety. Abnormal health symptoms appear when the human beings are exposed to these hazardous chemicals. Decontamination of surface or environment tainted with these toxic chemicals is the main job we have to do, to avoid he...
