Adsorption of heavy metals on kaolinite and montmorillonite: a review.

TL;DR: Montmorillonite and its modified forms have much higher metal adsorption capacity compared to that of kaolinite as well as modified-kaolinite.

Cadmium minimization in rice. A review

TL;DR: Sustainable agriculture and molecular techniques that prevents Cd uptake in rice can be done either by field remediation or change in plant functions, and organic farming decreasesCd uptake and remediates crop fields.

The adsorption of gases on plane surfaces of glass, mica and platinum.

TL;DR: In this article, the absorption index at the wave length of the band maximum was found to be proportional to the total concentration of metal at shorter wave lengths, however, deviations were observed, the absorption increasing more rapidly with concentration than Beers' law would demand.

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.
