TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between the factors (pH, temperature, biosorbent dosage, retention time and functional groups) and removal efficiency has been investigated, and the purpose of this work is to introduce optimal conditions for biosorption reaction.
Abstract: Common methods for removing heavy metals have numerous drawbacks, including low efficiency and high costs. In the biosorption of heavy metals, ions biosorbed on surfaces and active sites of biosorbents. In this paper, the relationship between the factors (pH, temperature, biosorbent dosage, retention time and Functional groups) and removal efficiency has been investigated. The purpose of this work is to introduce optimal conditions for biosorption reaction. Also, by introducing various types of biosorbents, expressed the advantages and method of preparation for each one. In various papers, not all biosorption isotherm models have been mentioned, there are described various types of biosorption isotherm, kinetics and thermodynamics models and important process data is set up for quick access to the tables.

TL;DR: Several knowledge gaps are stated in this new line of research and it is apparent that degradable microplastics, such as polylactic acid or polybutylene succinate, have a greater affinity for hydrophobic contaminants than conventional synthetic non-degradablemicroplastics according to recent studies.

TL;DR: The findings demonstrate the promise of porous cyclodextrin-based polymers for rapid, flow-through water treatment and outperformed a leading activated carbon for the rapid removal of a complex mixture of organic micropollutants at environmentally relevant concentrations.
Abstract: The global occurrence in water resources of organic micropollutants, such as pesticides and pharmaceuticals, has raised concerns about potential negative effects on aquatic ecosystems and human health. Activated carbons are the most widespread adsorbent materials used to remove organic pollutants from water but they have several deficiencies, including slow pollutant uptake (of the order of hours) and poor removal of many relatively hydrophilic micropollutants. Furthermore, regenerating spent activated carbon is energy intensive (requiring heating to 500-900 degrees Celsius) and does not fully restore performance. Insoluble polymers of β-cyclodextrin, an inexpensive, sustainably produced macrocycle of glucose, are likewise of interest for removing micropollutants from water by means of adsorption. β-cyclodextrin is known to encapsulate pollutants to form well-defined host-guest complexes, but until now cross-linked β-cyclodextrin polymers have had low surface areas and poor removal performance compared to conventional activated carbons. Here we crosslink β-cyclodextrin with rigid aromatic groups, providing a high-surface-area, mesoporous polymer of β-cyclodextrin. It rapidly sequesters a variety of organic micropollutants with adsorption rate constants 15 to 200 times greater than those of activated carbons and non-porous β-cyclodextrin adsorbent materials. In addition, the polymer can be regenerated several times using a mild washing procedure with no loss in performance. Finally, the polymer outperformed a leading activated carbon for the rapid removal of a complex mixture of organic micropollutants at environmentally relevant concentrations. These findings demonstrate the promise of porous cyclodextrin-based polymers for rapid, flow-through water treatment.
