TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the biosorption mechanisms of methylene blue (MB) and Cr(III) onto pomelo peel collected from local fruits by combining experimental analysis with ab initio simulations.

TL;DR: The results obtained within the Langmuir model gave the highest R2, the smallest root-mean-squared error (RMSE), and the best nonlinear chi-square test (χ2) values, indicating that this model is the most appropriate approach for describing the adsorption of lead onto the MnO2/CS nanomaterials as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, red mud modified by chitosan (RM/CS) was utilized as an adsorbent to effectively remove Pb(II) from aqueous solution.

TL;DR: The results tentatively suggest that D. lumholtzi showed a higher sensitivity to metals than related species in the temperate region and underscore the importance of including the local species in ecological risk assessment in important tropical ecosystems to arrive at a better conservational and management plan and regulatory policy to protect freshwater biodiversity.

TL;DR: Kinetic and thermodynamic studies based on a combination of FT-IR and TG-DSC spectroscopies demonstrate that electrostatic attraction plays a primary adsorption mechanism of lead (II) and cadmium ( II) cations onto pomelo fruit peel.
