چکیده
To solve the environment pollution problem by toxic heavy metal contamination resulting from human technological activities has for long presented a challenge. Electroplating industries poses a major contribution to heavy metal pollution to environment. Since the process of biosorption has many attractive features compared to the conventional effluent treatment methods in electroplating industries, a study has been conducted to find out a cost effective and environment friendly biosorbent from a selected list. The result reveal that Bengal gtram husk (Cicer arientinum), a locally available milling agro waste is a best biosorbent to remove heavy metals as well general pollutants from effluents of electroplating industries.

متن کاملEfficiency of Washing Techniques for Removal of Heavy Metals from Industrial Sludge
The effluent treatment plant sludge is one of the major sources of contamination with toxic metals. Since the sludge contains heavy metals, it must be pretreated to reduce the contamination. The heavy metals from the sludge can be reduced/ separated by washing it with a suitable leaching solution. In the present study, the efficiencies of three leaching solutions to remove the contaminants from...
