Arsenic and antimony in water and wastewater: overview of removal techniques with special reference to latest advances in adsorption

TL;DR: An overview of As and Sb chemistry, distribution and toxicity, which are relevant aspects to understand and develop remediation techniques are presented, and several alternative sorbents have been presenting promising results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance and prospects of different adsorbents for phosphorus uptake and recovery from water

TL;DR: A review of the literature about phosphate removal from water through adsorption and subsequent recovery through desorption or direct use of the phosphorus-loaded adsorbent as a fertilizer can be found in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selenium contaminated waters: An overview of analytical methods, treatment options and recent advances in sorption methods.

TL;DR: This review article provides a general overview about selenium distribution, sources, chemistry, toxicity and environmental impact, and published works on adsorption as a treatment method for Se removal from aqueous solutions are critically analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A review of the use of red mud as adsorbent for the removal of toxic pollutants from water and wastewater

TL;DR: It is evident from the literature survey that red mud has been found to be efficient for the removal of various aquatic pollutants, especially arsenic and phosphate, however, there is still a need to investigate the practical utility of these adsorbents on a commercial scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
