Novel Strategies for the Removal of Toxic Metals from Soils and Waters

Abstract: This article surveys the toxicities of mercury, cadmium, lead, copper, cadmium, and the actinides. Strategies for the removal of these metals include surfactants, aqueous biphasic systems, and liquid membranes. For soils, both in situ stabilization and detection are discussed. For extraction from soils, electrokinetic extraction, phytoremediation, and bioremediation methods are critically evaluated. This article provides an educator with the resources to set up a series of lectures on inorganic aspects of envi… Show more

“…If the metal contains in the blood up to 10 mg/mL, it can cause illness symtoms and Pb(II) concentrations in the water does not depend on the season, but on the depth. Lead ions contained in the water can get into the body of the fish and other aquatic animals [2]. Siswanta research resulted that the adsorbent Calix [4]resorcinarene, hybrid or Calix [4]resorcinarene-chitosan and chitosan can be applied to eliminate the Pb(II) metal ions.…”

“…Of these, adsorption is considered to be the best technology for removing heavy metals at low concentrations. Among the most suitable adsorbents, activated carbon is one of the most attractive and the most used adsorbent in various wastewater treatment industries (Kadirvelu et al 2004;Roundhill 2004;Ayyappan et al 2005;Machida et al 2005a;Foo and Hameed 2011).…”
