Abstract: Regional modeling of subsurface cadmium and zinc transport in a diffusely polluted area in the south of the Netherlands is the subject of this study. The atmospheric deposition of cadmium and zinc was caused by three zinc-ore... more
Swelling mica exhibits unique characteristics for purification of drinking water contaminated by heavy metals and for selective removal of Sr2+ and Ba2+ ions from nuclear waste solution. As a new approach to recycle fly ash, conversion of... more
Abstract: As a group, heavy metals include both those essential for normal biological functioning (e.g., Cu and Zn), and nonessential metals (e.g., Cd, Hg, and Pb). Both essential and nonessential metals can be present at concentrations... more
In this work, a brewer’s yeast strain was used to remove heavy metals from a synthetic effluent. The solid–liquid separation process was carried out using the flocculation ability of the strain. The yeast strain was able to sediment in... more
Two high performance flow atomic absorption (HPF-AAS) related techniques were chosen to assess their suitability for the determination of several trace elements in complex environmental and biological samples. The technique selected were... more
Aluminium sulfate (alum), polyaluminium chloride (PACl) and magnesium chloride (MgCl2) have been used as coagulants with Koaret PA 3230 as the polyelectrolyte to determine the effectiveness of coagulation method for the removal of heavy... more
