TL;DR: Thermodynamic parameters such as Gibbs free energy,Enthalpy, enthalpy and entropy have declared that the adsorption process was feasible, exothermic and spontaneous in nature.
Abstract: In this study, chitosan functionalised magnetic nano-particles (CMNP) was synthesised and utilised as an effective adsorbent for the removal of Pb(II) ions from aqueous solution. The experimental studies reveal that adsorbent material has finer adsorption capacity for the removal of heavy metal ions. Parameters affecting the adsorption of Pb(II) ions on CMNP, such as initial Pb(II) ion concentration, contact time, solution pH, adsorbent dosage and temperature were studied. The adsorption equilibrium study showed that present adsorption system followed a Freundlich isotherm model. The experimental kinetic studies on the adsorption of Pb(II) ions exhibited that present adsorption process best obeyed with pseudo-first order kinetics. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of CMNP for the removal of Pb(II) ions was found to be 498.6 mg g−1. The characterisation of present adsorbent material was done by FTIR, energy disperse X-ray analysis and vibrating sample magnetometer studies. Thermodynamic parameters such as Gibbs free energy (ΔG°), enthalpy (ΔH°) and entropy (ΔS°) have declared that the adsorption process was feasible, exothermic and spontaneous in nature. Sticking probability reported that adsorption of Pb(II) ions on CMNP was favourable at lower temperature and sticking capacity of Pb(II) ions was very high.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) on human health and environment is discussed and the application of microbes to degrade pollutants is getting attention due to its environmental and economic benefits.
Abstract: Nowadays pollution control and abatement are critical issues faced by environmental scientists due to rapid industrialization. Petroleum industry is one of the major industries which release hydrocarbon pollutants in environment. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are the priority pollutants which are released into the environment by exploration activities of petroleum industries. The indiscriminate accumulation of petroleum hydrocarbon pollutants can be hazardous to the human life and aquatic biota. Due to toxicity of these pollutants, establishing efficient and environment-friendly method to degrade and detoxify these pollutants is an important research challenge. Various physiochemical methods are applied all over the world to remediate of petroleum hydrocarbon pollutants. Bioremediation technique has been developed for treatment of crude oil pollutants using biological agents like bacteria, fungi, algae, and plants. Applications of certain microorganisms have gained importance in the field of applied environmental microbiology. The application of microbes to degrade pollutants is getting attention due to its environmental and economic benefits. They can be used to change bioavailability and toxicity of petroleum hydrocarbons present in polluted soil and aqueous environment. This paper explores hydrocarbons present in petroleum crude. The effect of petroleum hydrocarbon pollutants on human health and environment is also discussed. This chapter also explains microbial degradation of these pollutants.
