Application of a breakthrough biosorbent for removing heavy metals from synthetic and real wastewaters in a lab-scale continuous fixed-bed column

TL;DR: Desorption studies indicated that metal-loaded biosorbent could be used after three consecutive sorption, desorption and regeneration cycles by applying a semi-simulated real wastewater.

Functionalization of polyacrylonitrile/Na-Y-zeolite composite with amidoxime groups for the sorption of Cu(II), Cd(II) and Pb(II) metal ions

TL;DR: A composite material (PAN-Na-Y-zeolite) was prepared by polymerization of acrylonitrile in the presence of Na-Y zeolite, which was functionalized by amidoximation through the reaction of hydroxylamine on nitrile groups of the composite as discussed by the authors.
