heavy metals such as cu(ii) and pb(ii) are among the hazardous pollutants that lead to severe ecological problems and have a toxic effect on living organisms. the removal of cu(ii) and pb(ii) by iranian bentonite experiment were conducted in single component and multi component systems. the bentonite from the birjand area was characterized by x-ray diffraction pattern and ftir spectroscopy. the...

background: in recent years, various toxic chemicals/compounds have been widely detected at dangerous levels in drinking water in many parts of the world posing a variety of serious health risks to human beings. one of these toxic chemicals is lead, so this paper aimed to evaluate of efficiency coconut husk as cheap adsorbent for removal lead under different conditions. methods: in the spring o...

heavy metal pollution all around the world has become a major environmental concern and the bioremediation of polluted environments is an increasingly popular strategy due to both its efficiency and safety. in this study, a bacterial strain resistant to heavy metal was isolated from metal contaminated sites. strain mkh2 was removed pb (ii) with 95.06%. this isolate was also resistant to zinc, c...

the biosorption of heavy metals can be an effective process for the removal of such metal ions from aqueous solutions. in this study, the adsorption properties of nonliving biomass of phanerochaete chrysosporium for pb (ii) and zn (ii) were investigated by the use of batch adsorption techniques. the effects of initial metal ion concentration, initial ph, biosorbent concentration, stirring speed...

sawdust is now being investigated as an adsorbent to remove contaminants from aqueous solution. heavy metals can be decreased very effectively with the organic material. in this research, adsorption of pb (ii) onto modified beech sawdust in a batch system was investigated. sawdust was collected from timber mill of qom, iran, and modified with h2so4 and naoh. then, the effects of various paramet...

in the current investigation a novel nano hybrid adsorbent mcm-41/n-(3-trimethoxysilyl)-propyl)diethylenetriamine (mcm-41/tmspdeta) was prepared and was characterized using dls (dynamic light scattering), fourier transform infrared (ftir), x-ray diffraction (xrd), brunauer–emmett–teller (bet) analytical techniques and transmission electron microscopy (tem). the synthesized mcm-41/tmspdeta adsor...

interaction of pb(ii) ion with modified banana shell (mbs) and banana shell (bs) during adsorption fromaqueous solution were investigated. batch experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of contact time,ph, and idmid ion concentration on adsorption efficiency. the favorable pll for maxim= pb(ii) adsorptionwas at 5.0. for the investigated imoi) concentrations (10-80 mph), maximum ad...

background: lead (pb) is a heavy metal that is widely utilized in industries. it contaminates soil and groundwater. its non-biodegradability, severe toxicity, carcinogenicity, ability to accumulate in nature and contaminate groundwater and surface water make this toxic heavy metal extremely dangerous to living beings and the environment. therefore, technical and economic methods of removing pb ...
