Heavy metals are widely distributed in the environment due to the natural processes and
anthropogenic human activities. Their migration into no contaminated areas contributing …

Municipal sewage sludge is the residual material produced as a waste of municipal
wastewater purification. It is a sophisticated multi-component material, hard to handle. For …

Heavy metal pollution has resulted in serious environmental damage and raised significant
public health concerns. One potential solution in terminal waste treatment is to structurally …

Land-applied municipal biosolids, produced from municipal wastewater treatment sludge,
contributes to microplastics contamination in agroecosystems. The impacts of biosolids on …

The presence of higher concentrations of heavy metals in water affects its quality with a
concomitant adverse effect on its users thus their removal is paramount. A novel adsorbent …

Phytoextraction is an effective approach for remediation of heavy metal (HM) contaminated
soil. After the enhancement of phytoextraction efficiency has been systematically …

Traditional smelting process of manganese ore was plagued with high consume of power
and coke, and spraying and slag turning accidents caused by violent decomposition of …

The purpose of this study was to determine the heavy metal (HM: Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn, and
Hg) content in particular chemical fractions (forms) of sewage sludge with different …

In order to enhance heavy metals removal, two enhanced chemical leaching techniques
were examined comparatively using NaClO and NaNO 2 with the addition of FeCl 3. The …

Composting influences heavy metal (HM) speciation by transforming the exchangeable and
reducible forms of HMs to oxidisable and residual forms, promoting the redistribution of HMs …
