Heavy metal pollution has become one of the most severe environmental issues. Adsorption
is an effective method for removing heavy metals from aquatic environments. The adsorption …

Algae synthesise structurally complex glycans to build a protective barrier, the extracellular
matrix. One function of matrix glycans is to slow down microorganisms that try to …

Here we report the adsorption of heavy metal ions from wastewater by the pellet material
(IT@ SA) of iron tailings (IT) compounded with sodium alginate (SA) as a regenerable …

The change of composition of an adsorbent material has been widely used as a method to
increase its adsorption capacity, particularly concerning adsorbents made of …

The primary goals of human civilization are sustainable growth and restoration of the
ecosystem. Currently, the continuous release of effluents containing heavy metals from …

abstract Heavy metal pollution has become a major environmental concern because
modern industries produce heavy metals in their effluents. Adsorption is regarded as an …

Arsenic (As) is a contaminant of global concern due to its negative impact on environmental
systems, where As occurs mainly as two inorganic species, arsenite (As (III)) and arsenate …

Microalgal biomasses have been established as promising biosorbents for biosorption to
remove heavy metal ions (HMIs) from wastewaters and contaminated natural waterbodies …

A simple polyacrylamide modification method was developed to improve the adsorption
capacity and anti-interference of kaolin, which enhanced the adsorption performance of …

In the context of a circular economy that recommends the most efficient use of wastes, algae
wastes have a huge potential for valorization. In this study, algae wastes obtained after the …
