Toxic heavy metal ions may have adverse health effects on human health. sensing and effective removal is an important issue. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a novel group of crystalline porous materials. Because their extremely high surface areas, optimized pore volumes size distributions for specific detection, electrochemical sensors based MOF's gaining popularity. They reliable, easy to ...

Tannins gel was investigated as an adsorbent for heavy metal ions, such as lead, cadmium, copper, and others. The gel used in the present work was made by Mitsubishi Nuclear Fuel Co. Ltd. (MNF). It was found that the gel showed high adsorption capacity of heavy metal ions and the adsorption isotherms were correlated well by the Langmuir equation. The maximum adsorption capacity was influenced b...

Removal of Cd 2+ , Pb 2+ , and Ni 2+ from aqueous solutions using cellulosegraft-acrylic acid (C-g-AA) hydrogels was investigated. Various factors affecting the adsorption capacity, such as pH, time, initial ions concentration, and competitive ions, were tested. The results showed that the adsorption of hydrogels was very pH dependent, and maximum adsorption was obtained at a pH of 5.0. The ads...

The most important pollutants in wastewater are heavy metal ions. In this paper, the effects of various parameters such as pH, contact time, initial concentration, and temperature on the adsorption of Cu (II) by nanochitosan (NCS) was investigated in batch experiment. Nanochitosan was prepared based on ionic gelation and charac­terized by means of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR),...

Butyryl cholinesterase of different origin along with variations of the time of enzyme immobilization on the potentiometric transducer surface is offered to control the ion sensitive field effect transistor (ISFET)-based biosensor sensitivity. Because butyryl cholinesterase has been already used to develop the sensors for heavy metals, organophosphorus/carbamate pesticides, and steroidal glycoa...
