in this study, the blast furnace slag was used as absorbing bed and then, its ionic adsorption was studied. for this reason, various experimental parameters such as ph, contact time and the primary ion concentration were investigated. the remaining concentrations of ions such as; mn2+ and fe2+ in water were measured by atomic adsorption spectroscopy. the chemical and phase composition of slag, ...

algae have been proven efficient biological vectors for heavy metal uptake. in order to further study their biosorption potential, two strains spirogyra sp. and spirulina sp. have been studied under different initial metal concentrations. in recent years, the biosorption processes have been studied extensively using microbial biomass as biosorbent for heavy metal ions removal. in these studies,...

In the present study the kinetics of biosorption of cadmium(II) ions by deactivated protonated yeast converted to sodium form was investigated for different initial concentrations of the metal ion (10-100 ppm) and different sorbent dosages (0.1-2.0 g) at a pH of 6.5. The adsorption process occurred in four distinct steps and the rates for these steps decreased sequentially. The rate of cadmium ...

This paper reports the evaluation of adsorbing Cr (VI) ions on sorbent prepared from chitosan (CHT), a versatile derivative of chitin, and dodecyl amine modified locally available kaolinite clay (Bijoypur clay) (MC) that has excellent mechanical properties and great resistance to chemical and biological attack. The effect of the initial metal ion concentration, solution pH, contact time, and ad...

In this survey adsorption of some heavy metals such as cobalt and lead on montmorillonite and montmorillonite/copper oxide nano-composite is reported. Adsorption percent and adsorption capacity were studied under different conditions such as pH concentration of metal ions amount of clay and interaction time. The results show that an increase in absorption percent and absorption capacity wit...

The sorption behaviour of divalent cations M2+ (Cu, Pb and zn) and trivalent cations M3+ (Fe, Al) with humic acid isolated from oxidized coal (Hazro,se Anatolia,Turkey) was followed in aqueous solution. Coal humic acid and metal ion interaction was investigated with special emphasis on the effects of pH, metal ion concentration and humic acid concentration. it has been found that the interactio...

Metal ion homeostasis and heavy metal detoxification systems are regulated by certain genes associated with metal ion transport. Metallothionein (MT) and metal response element binding transcription factor 1 (MTF‑1) are important regulatory proteins involved in the mediation of intracellular metal ion balance. Differences in the zinc‑binding affinities of the zinc fingers of MTF‑1 and the α‑ an...

Salicylic acid-Formaldehyde-m-Cresol (SFM) terpolymer had been synthesized in DMF media by conventional method. The resulting resin had been characterized by FTIR spectra, elemental and thermogravimetric analyses. The morphology of SFM resin had been studied by SEM and Optical photograph. Various parameters like rate of equilibration, effect of pH on ion exchange capacity and effect of conc...
