Low-cost physicochemical treatment for removal of ammonia, phosphate and nitrate contaminants from landfill leachate.

TL;DR: Four low-cost materials, oyster shells, pumice stone, sand and zeolite were employed as adsorbents in an adsorption batch assays investigating the removal of ammonia, phosphate and nitrate from an aqueous solution, with overall results indicating reduced phosphate advertisersorption in comparison to the other compounds tested.

Biosorption of Naphthalene from Refinery Simulated Waste-Water on Blank Alginate Beads and Immobilized Dead Algal Cells

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential use of blank alginate beads and immobilized dead algal cells for the removal of naphthalene from aqueous solutions was investigated, and the effects of contact time, solution pH, and naph-thalene concentration on the sorption of Naph-6 on either blank-alginate or immobilized-dead-algal cells were studied.
