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: 
Heavy metals in the environment
This paper reports on the development of a novel CMOS device employing lead-sensing bacteria to assay lead in drinking water. The objective of the PlomBOX project is to develop a low-cost sensor (£10) which can expedite access to on-demand assay methods and thus help mitigate lead intake through...Read more
