Heavy-metal pollution represents an important environmental problem due to the toxic
effects of metals, and their accumulation throughout the food chain leads to serious …

This paper reviews the technology and biotechnology to remove heavy metals (such as
copper, arsenic, lead and zinc) and cyanide from contaminated wastewater. The paper …

Removal of hazardous metals through biological means has received considerable attention
in the last few decades. Nevertheless, only a fraction of these studies employed growing …

The authors review presently available or potential biological methods to remove and
detoxify toxic heavy metals and metalloids from polluted water and sediments (ie …

A study on olive mill residues (OMR) as copper adsorbing material is reported in this work. A
rough characterization of this waste material has been performed, by microanalysis and …

We tested the hypothesis that dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is degraded when filtered
through permeable shelf sediments. In a laboratory flume experiment the concave shape of …

The ability of microbial cells to sequester solutes selectively from aquatic solutions, via
nonmetabolically mediated pathways, has been termed biosorption. The mechanism of …

Efficient removal of dissolved nickel was observed in a biologically active moving-
bedMERESAFIN'sand filter treating rinsing water from an electroless nickel plating plant …
