Adsorption of heavy metals (hexavalent chromium, lead, manganese and cadmium) on multiwall carbon nanotubes

(Corresponding) Mpouras T., Papadaki S., Dermatas D., Papassiopi N.
Topic: 
Nanomaterials in the environmnents applications and effects
Nanotechnology holds great potential in the sector of water/wastewater treatment since it is considered as an advanced technology for improving water quality. Carbon nanotubes is a carbonaceous material that shows exceptional adsorption capacity for the removal of heavy metals due to their novel...Read more

Removal of Cr(VI) under flow conditions using a green nano-iron loaded resin

(Corresponding) Toli A., Mystrioti C., Xenidis A., Papassiopi N.
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

(Corresponding) Mystrioti C., Mpouras A., Papassiopi N., Dermatas D.
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
