The removal of cadmium from dilute solutions using a continuous undivided electrochemical reactor with a rotating cylinder cathode of expanded metal is analysed. The effects of cathodic applied potential, size and orientation ...

Many industrial activities generate large quantities of biomass wastes. The use of these to produce added value products or energy has become very important in recent years. Heavy metals as lead and cadmium are among the ...

Considering the biotechnological potential of Trichoderma harzianum in the xenobiotic metabolization and its resistance to heavy metals, the aim of this work was to evaluate the utrastructural and biochemical behavior ...

The aim of this work was to evaluate the capacity of Lactobacillus. kefir strains to remove cadmium cations and protect eukaryotic cells from cadmium toxicity. Lb. kefir CIDCA 8348 and JCM5818 were grown in a 1/2 dilution ...

In this work the microalgae Pseudokirchneriella supcapitata was used for the removal of the cadmium in liquids. The accumulations of metal ions by the alga occur in two stages: a very fast absorption (passive adsorption) ...

A new metallosilicate based on yttrium was synthesized and characterized by XRD, FT-IR, 29Si MAS-NMR, and 89Y MAS-NMR. The mixed framework of the material was confirmed by the detection of distinct chemical shift groups ...

The increasing generation of wastewater with high levels of pollutants has become a serious environmental challenge. In this context, sustainable technologies are required to treat wastewater efficiently. Therefore, it was ...
