Upcycling contaminated biomass into metal-supported heterogeneous catalyst for electro-Fenton degradation of thiamethoxam: Preparation, mechanisms, and implications

Metal biosorption onto non-living algae: a critical review on metal recovery from wastewater

“…[96][97][98][99] Developing an integrative process entailing metal sorption from real matrices and applying the resultant biochar might be a sustainable metal recovery methodology. 100,101 More studies are required to assess the feasibility of the process. Ideally, a metal sorption assay should be conducted in wastewater and the recovered metalloaded algae should be treated and applied to investigate its potential as a supercapacitor or catalyst.…”
