The presence of heavy metals in the industrial effluents has recently been a challenging issue for human health. Efficient removal of heavy metal ions from environment is one of the most important issues from biological and environmental point of view, and many studies have been devoted to investigate the environmental behavior of nanoscale zerovalent iron (NZVI) for the removal of toxic heavy ...

background: the rapid increase in agricultural and industrial development has made heavy metal pollution a serious environmental problem and public health threat; therefore, removal of heavy metals from water is important. the current study prepared dnph@sds@fe3o4 nanoparticles as a novel and effective adsorbent for removal of hg(ii) ions from an aqueous solution. methods: a selective adsorbent...

Co-precipitation procedure was applied in order to obtain different kinds of magnetic nanoadsobents for the removal of Pb(II) and Cu(II) toxic metal ions from wastewater samples. Prepared nanoadsorbents were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The average sizes of t...

salicylic acid-formaldehyde-m-cresol (sfm) terpolymer had been synthesized in dmf media by conventional method. the resulting resin had been characterized by ftir spectra, elemental and thermogravimetric analyses. the morphology of sfm resin had been studied by sem and optical photograph. various parameters like rate of equilibration, effect of ph on ion exchange capacity and effect of concentr...

Sorption techniques are widely used to remove heavy metal ions from large volumes of aqueous solutions. Herein, the natural and some artificial materials, such as clay minerals, biosorbents, carbon-nanomaterials, metal oxides, are reviewed as adsorbents in the removal of different heavy metal ions, such as Ni(II), Cu(II), Pb(II), Cd(II), Cs(I), Eu(III), Th(IV), Cr(VI) from large volumes of aque...

in vascular plants, the soil solution is transported from the roots to the leaves through smalldiameter vessels found in the xylem; this transport not only allows the nutrient uptake but also the accumulation of heavy metals in their shoots. by analogy to this phenomenon, the present study aimed at the evaluation of heavy metals transport (pb, cr, as, cd, zn, ni and al) in ph 4 and ph 8 solutio...

heavy metal toxicity has serious adverse effects on the environment. the metal sequestering characteristics of a novel metal binding peptide (glu-cys) 11 gly+linker+hexahistidine (ec 11 :his 6 ) was investigated to determine if it can absorb cu 2+ or zn 2+ cations. molecular dynamics simulations were carried out using a model of 6 cu 2+ or zn 2+ and other ions enclosed in a fully hydrated simul...

Heavy metals released into the surface and ground water has been a major preoccupation for many years because of their increased discharge, acute toxicity, non-biodegradable nature and tendency for bioaccumulation [1-3]. Iron a common contaminant enters the water bodies through effluents of industries such as electroplating, mining, steel processing etc. The presence of Fe (II) in water results...

In this study, biosorption of heavy metal and dye by microbes will investigate. Optimum pH values of the maximum heavy metal biosorption will be finding. The bioremoval of the dye also investigate at different pH, Removal rates will measure respectively. The presence of heavy metal with dye analysis will be done for uptake by biosorbents .The results expected to indicate that the isolated bioso...
