Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of heavy metals on Na-montmorillonite. Effect of pH and organic substances.
TL;DR: The results suggest that complex formation hinders the sorption of the metals on the clay, with an increasing influence in the order: Mn = or = Pb < or = Cd < or= Zn < Ni < Cu < Cr.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of heavy metals on vermiculite: Influence of pH and organic ligands
TL;DR: The continuous column method was used in order to evaluate the feasibility to use the clay in wastewater purification systems and it is possible to conclude that the vermiculite has good potentialities for cost-effective treatments of metal-contaminated wastewaters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interaction of metal ions with montmorillonite and vermiculite
TL;DR: In this article, the behavior of vermiculite and montmorillonite toward adsorption of Cd2+, Pb2+, Zn2+, Mn2+, Cu2+ and Zn 2+ was compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heavy metals in agricultural soils from Piedmont, Italy. Distribution, speciation and chemometric data treatment.
Ornella Abollino,Maurizio Aceto,Mery Malandrino,Edoardo Mentasti,Corrado Sarzanini,Fabio Petrella +5 more
TL;DR: The distribution and speciation of heavy metals in five agricultural soils of Piedmont Region (north-western Italy) were investigated and the effect of sampling depth on concentrations was discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accumulation of heavy metals from contaminated soil to plants and evaluation of soil remediation by vermiculite
Mery Malandrino,Ornella Abollino,Sandro Buoso,Agnese Giacomino,Carmela La Gioia,Edoardo Mentasti +5 more
TL;DR: The results indicated that the addition of vermiculite significantly reduces the uptake of metal pollutants by plants, confirming the possibility of using this clay in amendment treatments of metal-contaminated soils.
