Sorbent Based on Polyvinyl Butyral and Potassium Polytitanate for Purifying Wastewater from Heavy Metal Ions

fabrication of new ion sensitive field effect transistors (isfet) based on modification of junction-fet for analysis of hydronium, potassium and hydrazinium ions

a novel and ultra low cost isfet electrode and measurement system was designed for isfet application and detection of hydronium, hydrazinium and potassium ions. also, a measuring setup containing appropriate circuits, suitable analyzer (advantech board), de noise reduction elements, cooling system and pc was used for controlling the isfet electrode and various characteristic measurements. the t...

Silica-Based Membrane Sorbent for Heavy Metal Sequestration

Antibody-based sensors for heavy metal ions.

Competitive immunoassays for Cd(II), Co(II), Pb(II) and U(VI) were developed using identical reagents in two different assay formats, a competitive microwell format and an immunosensor format with the KinExA 3000. Four different monoclonal antibodies specific for complexes of EDTA-Cd(II), DTPA-Co(II), 2,9-dicarboxyl-1,10-phenanthroline-U(VI), or cyclohexyl-DTPA-Pb(II) were incubated with the ap...

Using Nanocomposites of Chitosan and Montmorillonite for Adsorption of Heavy Metal Ions from Wastewater

Common technologies for heavy metal removal are membrane separation, ion exchange, electro-deposition, and chemical precipitation. These methods prove to be costly and inept, especially in removing trace amounts of heavy metals [2]. Another disadvantage is the production of sludge or mud, which requires proper disposal and confi nement [3]. On the other hand, adsorption eff ectively removes con...

Study on the Preparation of a Sol-Gel Sorbent Based Thiosemicarbazone for Selective Removal of Heavy Metal Ions

Sorbent material based on a novel thiosemicarbazone compound, C H N S, was prepared by 12 18 4 immobilizing the ligand into gel matrix (SG). The SG sorbent was characterized by FT-IR, EDX, SEM, TEM and TGA. The competitive sorption characteristics of eight transition metal ions (Ag , Cu , Co , Ni , Fe , Pb , Zn + 2+ 2+ + 3+ 2+ 2+ and Mn ) using batch method was studied using atomic absorption s...
