Hexavalent chromium is of particular environmental concern due to its toxicity and mobility
and is challenging to remove from industrial wastewater. It is a strong oxidizing agent that is …

There is a growing need for soil remediation due to the increase in heavy metals (HMs)
migrating into the soil environment, especially those from man-made sources dominated by …

Heavy metals are potential health risk, especially in mining sites where they deteriorate from
sulfide-rich ore bodies. Lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury are very carcinogenic, while …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is defined as the organic matter fraction in solution that
passes through a 0.45 μm filter. Although DOM is ubiquitous in terrestrial and aquatic …

In this study, chitosan-crosslinked-poly (alginic acid) nanohydrogel (CN-cl-PL (AA) NHG)
was synthesized by co-polymerization method. It was used an effective adsorbent for the …

Borohydride reduction of an aqueous iron salt in the presence of a support material gives
supported zero-valent iron nanoparticles that are 10− 30 nm in diameter. The material is …

A facile thermodecomposition process to synthesize magnetic graphene nanocomposites
(MGNCs) is reported. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and energy filtered …

In this study, we demonstrated that oxalate modification could promote the Cr (VI) removal
performance of zerovalent iron (ZVI) and increase the removal rate constant by about 20 …

Phytostabilization involves the establishment of a plant cover on the surface of the
contaminated sites with the aim of reducing the mobility of contaminants within the vadose …

This work was conducted to study the effect of soil pH (4.0, 6.0, and 8.0) on the transport,
fractionation, and oxidation of trivalent chromium [Cr (III)]. Variation in pH altered soil …
