TL;DR: In this article, a detailed comparison of reported nano-metal oxide sorbents has been done in order to rank them and to predict the knowledge gaps in this area, and a study involves the identification of environmentally friendly, low-cost, and efficient nano metal oxides for water/wastewater purification.
Abstract: Environmental water samples contain wide range of contaminants including heavy metal ions that are required only in trace amount. Excessive level of metal ions in water may be detrimental to health and environment. Heavy metal poisoning has been a serious concern all over the globe. Heavy metals are well known to be non-biodegradable and tend to bio-accumulate at various concentrations. A number of methods have been proposed to remove heavy metal ions from water and among them adsorption is one of the best methods. Cadmium has been identified as one of the toxic heavy metals that enters the water through disposal of waste from industries. The increasing technological use of cadmium has raised the concern for its removal from water/wastewater. This review article provides an overview of use of nano-metal oxides as adsorbents for removal of cadmium from water/wastewater. This study involves the identification of environmentally friendly, low-cost and efficient nano-metal oxide sorbents for water/wastewater purification. A detailed comparison of reported nano-metal oxide sorbents has been done in order to rank them and to predict the knowledge gaps in this area.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the recent developments in the area of polymer electrolytes using aqueous and nonaqueous-based natural polymers for developing a cheaper, ecofriendly, biodegradable, and widely used electrolytes as a substitute for existing synthetic polymers.
Abstract: Polymer electrolytes are an important component of many electrochemical devices. Researchers have carried out a significant work for the development of polymer electrolytes. This paper reviews the recent developments in the area of polymer electrolytes using aqueous and nonaqueous-based natural polymers for developing a cheaper, ecofriendly, biodegradable, and widely used electrolytes as a substitute for existing synthetic polymer electrolytes. This paper also encompasses the merits and demerits of the different natural polymers used by the researcher. There is a scope to develop a nonaqueous-based natural polymer electrolyte as an alternate for synthetic polymer electrolyte for batteries and other electronic devices.

TL;DR: The current state of the art, merits and shortcomings of the systems, devices and transdermal delivery patches, including drugs’ and other payloads’ passage facilitation techniques, permeation and absorption feasibility studies, as well as physicochemical properties affecting the delivery through different transDermal modes are covered.
Abstract: Pay-load deliveries across the skin barrier to the systemic circulation have been one of the most challenging delivery options. Necessitated requirements of the skin and facilitated skin layer cross-over delivery attempts have resulted in development of different non-invasive, non-oral methods, devices and systems which have been standardized, concurrently used and are in continuous upgrade and improvements. Iontophoresis, electroporation, sonophoresis, magnetophoresis, dermal patches, nanocarriers, needled and needle-less shots, and injectors are among some of the methods of transdermal delivery. The current review covers the current state of the art, merits and shortcomings of the systems, devices and transdermal delivery patches, including drugs' and other payloads' passage facilitation techniques, permeation and absorption feasibility studies, as well as physicochemical properties affecting the delivery through different transdermal modes along with examples of drugs, vaccines, genes and other payloads.
