Nano-iron based coated biomass as packing material in fixed-bed reactors for Lead removal from wastewater: experimental and mathematical modelling
(Corresponding) Vilardi G., Di Palma L., Verdone N.
Topic:
Heavy metals in the environment
The lead pollution of natural environments is considered a severe issue due to the high toxicity and mobility of lead ionic species. The present study deals with the removal of Pb(II) ions from synthetic wastewater by means of iron-based coated olive stones, used as packing material in lab-scale...Read more

Topic:
Nanomaterials in the environmnents applications and effects
A new nanocomposite material, consisting of nanoiron incorporated in cationic resin beads, was evaluated for the removal of Cr(VI) under flow conditions, by conducting column experiments. An aqueous solution containing Cr(VI) 5 mg/L and NaCl 0.01 M as inert electrolyte was introduced in the column...Read more
Evaluation of soil loaded with green iron nanoparticles for hexavalent chromium reduction

Topic:
Nanomaterials in the environmnents applications and effects
Chromate is a pollutant often found in groundwater and considered a serious threat for humans and ecosystem. Iron nanoparticles produced by green tea polyphenols (GT-nZVI) is a powerful reductant, appropriate for the reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III). GT-nZVI suspension was initially conceived ideal...Read more
