TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the results of research undertaken in the last decade on the application of various nanomaterials to decrease chromium concentrations in contaminated waters and examined major factors influencing the removal efficiency.

TL;DR: This review is a one-stop-reference by bringing together recent research works in the scope of the application of carbon nanomaterials for the recovery of rare earth elements from water by describing the sorption of REEs from synthetic and mono-elemental solutions at unrealistic metal concentrations.

TL;DR: Evaluating the biochemical alterations caused by Nd in the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis exposed to this element for 28 days demonstrated that Nd was accumulated by mussels, leading to mussel's metabolic capacity increase and GLY expenditure, in an attempt to fuel up defense mechanisms.

TL;DR: The results obtained highlighted that Dy was responsible for mussel's metabolic increase associated with glycogen expenditure, activation of antioxidant and biotransformation defences and cellular damage, with a clear loss of redox balance.

TL;DR: In this paper, six widely available living marine macroalgae (Ulva intestinalis, Ulva lactuca, Gracilaria sp., Osmundea pinnatifida, Fucus vesiculosus, Fus spiralis) were characterized and evaluated in the pre-concentration and recovery of Europium from contaminated seawater, under different relevant contamination scenarios (10, 152 and 500 μg L−1).
