Adsorption of Lead Ions on Tea Waste Adsorbent
Abstract: Abstract In 2015 Indian Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi focused more on clean and green India. On behalf of it an effective tea waste collected from Hotel Rudrapratap Tomar Purani Chhawani, Gwalior, MP, India. This hotel generated tea waste of 10000 kg per month. In Nov 2015 it generated tea waste of about 29000 kg which created tremendous problems, particularly by environmental pollution control board. Characterization of the adsorbents showed …

Microbial Flocculants and Its Application in Wastewater Treatments: A Review
Abstract: Abstract Scarcity of water resources has compelled to develop techniques for effective wastewater treatments and reutilization of it. Industrial and municipal wastewaters are the biggest pollutants of natural water resources. Wastewaters from these sources are rich in suspended particles, dyes, toxic organic chemicals, heavy metals and nutrient content such as nitrogen and phosphorus. The removal of these chemicals and particles is biggest challenge for effective wastewater treatment and its disposal. …

Bioremediation: Sorption of Cu2+, Fe3+, Mn2+, and Zn2+ Using Immobilized Ficus Sycomorus Leaves Biomass
Abstract: Abstract Sorption of Fe3+, Mn2+, Zn2+, and Cu2+ by immobilized Ficus sycomorus leaves (IFSL) in aqueous solution was studied in this work. The sorption capacity (in percentage) was calculated with respect to the remnant ion concentration, determined using atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS) and these were obtained for the metal ions as follows; Fe3+: 99.84±0.0015%, Mn2+: 99.97±0.0005%, Zn2+: 84.10±0.0094% andCu2+: 94.32±0.0033%. Some conditions that influence the sorption capacity of metal ions …
