The drivers for increasing incineration of sewage sludge and the characteristics of the
resulting incinerated sewage sludge ash (ISSA) are reviewed. It is estimated that …

In this work, we have studied the Pb 2+ sorption capacity of Zeolite (Z) and Montmorillonite
(Mt) functionalized with nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI), at 50% w/w, obtained by means of …

Abstract Cadmium (Cd 2+) can affect plant growth due to its mobility and toxicity. We
evaluated the effects of Cd 2+ on the production of phenolic compounds and antioxidant …

Anthropogenic activities like agriculture have resulted in increased concentrations of some
trace elements of toxicological and environmental concern in soils. Application of fertilizers …

The improper disposal of incinerated sewage sludge ash (ISSA) and air pollution control
residues (APCR) from sewage sludge incinerators has become an environmental concern …

This paper proposes, for the first time, the use of sewage sludge ash (SSA), obtained by
sludge combustion for the stabilization of fly ashes containing heavy metals as Pb and Zn. In …

Imogolite and magnetic imogolite-Fe oxide nanocomposites (Imo-Fe 50 and Imo-Fe 25, at
50 and 25% Fe loading (w/w), respectively) were synthesized and tested for the removal of …

Heavy metals contaminated wastewater sludge is classified as hazardous solid waste and
needs to be properly treated to prevent releasing heavy metals to the environment. In this …

Modification of surface charge and changes in the isoelectric point (IEP) of synthetic
imogolite were studied for various cations in the background electrolyte (K+, NH 4+, Mg 2+ …

Glyphosate (N‐phosphonometylglycine) is widely used due to its broad spectrum of activity
and nonselective mode of action. In Chile it is the most used herbicide, but its adsorption …
