Chitosan, a low cost polymer, has been used in many studies for adsorption of heavy metal
ions. This review covers the performance of all those adsorbents which were derived from …

Environmental biotechnology is the use of biotechnology to develop and regulate biological
systems for the remediation of environmental contamination. Nature has gifted ample …

Heavy metal contamination in soil and water has become a serious threat to all forms of life.
Finding a sustainable remediation method is the prime concern of researchers worldwide. In …

Separation of heavy metals from water bodies is a need of hour, to protect human kind,
marine life, and the environment. In this context, adsorptive separation of heavy metal over …

This study investigates the removal of manganese and nitrate from aqueous systems in
batch and column studies using date palm waste-derived biochar. High removal efficiencies …

Biosorption is one of the solute enrichment techniques driven by the concentration
difference of biosorbate molecules among the bulk liquid phase and solid biosorbent. The …

Adsorption of chromium (VI), lead (II) and zinc (II) metal ions from the industrial effluent by
tobacco leaves coated with iron oxides was investigated using continuous fixed bed column …

Background The presence of iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn) ions in rocky beds leads to
groundwater pollution. Moreover, their excessive concentration causes bad taste and color …

An effective and sustainable biosorbent (MagOPIC) was prepared from chitosan and olive
pomace by the combined action of immobilization and magnetic modification to remediate …

The potential of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) based polymeric composites for heavy
metal removal was analyzed in this study. Two mixed matrix composites, along with NH 2 …
