Removal of heavy metal ions from wastewaters: A review

TL;DR: It is evident from the literature survey articles that ion-exchange, adsorption and membrane filtration are the most frequently studied for the treatment of heavy metal wastewater.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adsorption of methylene blue on low-cost adsorbents: A review

TL;DR: It is evident from a literature survey of about 185 recently published papers that low-cost adsorbents have demonstrated outstanding removal capabilities for MB, and these include agricultural wastes, industrial solid wastes, biomass, clays minerals and zeolites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetics of adsorption of metal ions on inorganic materials: A review

TL;DR: An attempt has been made to discuss the kinetics of adsorption of metal ions on inorganic solids on the basis of published reports, and the values of the kinetic rate coefficients indicate the speed at which the metal ions adsorb on the materials.

Removal of chromium (VI) from wastewater using bentonite-supported nanoscale zero-valent iron.

TL;DR: The removal of Cr (VI) using B-nZVI was consistent with pseudo first-order reaction kinetics and was used to remediate electroplating wastewater with removal efficiencies for Cr, Pb and Cu > 90%.

Comprehensive Supramolecular Chemistry

TL;DR: The aim of this book is to provide a history of Supramolecular Chemistry from its inception in the 1920s to the present day, with a focus on the period between 1950 and 1983.

Fundamentals of soil behavior

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed an understanding of the factors determining and controlling the engineering properties of soil, the factors controlling their magnitude, and the influences of environment and time, and developed a two-part book which contains the following chapters: Part 1 - the nature of soils; bonding, crystal structure and surface characteristics; soil mineralogy; soil formation and soil deposits; determination of soil composition; soil water; clay-water-electrolyte system; soil fabric and its measurement; Part 2 - soil behavior; soil composition and engineering properties; effective, intergranular

Arsenic removal from water/wastewater using adsorbents—A critical review

TL;DR: Strong acids and bases seem to be the best desorbing agents to produce arsenic concentrates, and some commercial adsorbents which include resins, gels, silica, treated silica tested for arsenic removal come out to be superior.
