Many algae have immense capability to sorb metals, and there is considerable potential for
using them to treat wastewaters. Metal sorption involves binding on the cell surface and to …

A number of microalgae species are efficient in removing toxicants from wastewater. Many of
these potential species are a promising, eco-friendly, and sustainable option for tertiary …

Algae has potential to remediate heavy metals. However, the physiological responses of live
algae to heavy metals are not well studied. In this study, the physiological responses of …

This review analyses the account of biological (microalgae) and synthetic (bio-polymeric
adsorbents) elements to compass the treatment efficiencies of various water pollutants and …

Aquatic environments are often exposed to toxic heavy metals, which gain access to the
food chain via microalgae and may cause severe problems at higher trophic levels …

Industrial wastewaters often contain high levels of metal mixtures, in which metal mixtures
may have synergistic or antagonistic effects on aquatic organisms. A combination of …

Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is one of the promising and reliable thermochemical
conversion processes capable of converting wet biomass feedstock into renewable bio-oils …

Photosynthetic biofilms successfully colonize the sediments of a mine tailings reservoir
(Guanajuato, Mexico) despite the high metal concentrations that are present. To elucidate …

Copper is an important metal for industry, and its toxic threshold in natural ecosystems has
increased since the industrial revolution. As an essential nutrient, it is required in minute …

Macroalgae have received much attention for heavy metal removal in treatment of domestic
wastewater. In this report, the uptake capacity of a common freshwater green alga …
