Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRemoval and Recovery of Lead from Aqueous Solution by Low Cost MediaLucia Pappalardo, Fawwaz Jumean, Naser AbdoProblem statement: To remove Pb(II) from wastewater using local UAE sand and then to recover the removed Pb(II). Approach: Removal efficiency of Pb(II) from wastewater was investigated using white, yellow and red United Arab Emirates sand with pore sizes < 300 μm. Two methods were employed: batch equilibrium and column filtration. In the batch equilibrium study, the effect of sand … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 6,911 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupercritical CO2 Extraction of Heavy Metals Cu, Zn and Cd from Aqueous Solution using D ithizone as Chelating AgentJeton Halili, Altin Mele, Tahir Arbneshi, Ilir MazrekuMetal ions in liquid samples can be extracted by supercritical CO2, containing a suitable ligand. This paper presents the first experimental data for the extraction of three heavy metals Cu, Zn and Cd from aqueous samples in the presence of Dithizone as chelating agent. Extractions by supercritical CO2 have been performed at 120 bars with 50°C used dynamic technique. After … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 22 Jun 2015 · 7,306 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEast Kolkata Wetland: A Multifunctional Niche of International ImportanceI. Mukherjee, S. Ray Chaudhuri, D. Ghosh, A. R. ThakurProblem statement: In the megacity Kolkata, the need for space to accomodate the ever increasing population is increasing day by day. As a result the encoarchment of the large wetland on the eastern frindge of the city is increasing and so is the threat of its loosing the status of Ramsar Status. Approach: Proper documentation of the existing traditional practice … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2012 · 9,082 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecovery of Lead(II) from Aqueous Solutions by Zea mays Tassel BiosorptionCaliphs M. Zvinowanda, Jonathan O. Okonkwo, Nana M. Agyei et al.Problem statement: Major adsorbent materials used in heavy metal ion removal from polluted aqueous streams are expensive and difficult to regenerate. In this study, the possibility of using Zea mays tassel, as an alternative low cost biosorbent material to remediate heavy metal pollution was investigated. Lead (II) was used because of its wide application in industrial products and well documented … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,465 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTraditional Aquaculture Practice at East Calcutta Wetland: The Safety AssessmentS. Raychaudhuri, M. Mishra, S. Salodkar et al.The current study is on East Calcutta Wetland (ECW) which is a model for multi-use resource recovery system with activities like pisciculture and agriculture. The entire city's soluble waste is disposed into the raw sewage canals which finally drains into the shallow, flat bottom fish ponds called Bheri. These sewage fed fisheries act simultaneously for the purification process like removal … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 9,436 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Characterization of Novel Metal Accumulating Extracellular Protease Secreting Bacteria from Marine Coastal Region of Digha in West Bengal, IndiaSusmita Roy, Kaushal Mishra, Sanhita Chowdhury et al.Problem statement: The objective of the present piece of work was to explore the existing biodiversity of protease secreting microbes in a marine ecosystem, the site selected being the coastal region of West Bengal (Digha), India. Approach: The culture dependent method was used for isolation and characterization of novel microbes from the point of biotechnological application. The isolate obtained was … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudies on Metal Microbe Interaction of Three Bacterial Isolates From East Calcutta WetlandV. K. Adarsh, Madhusmita Mishra, Sanhita Chowdhury et al.The present paper put forth the isolation and complete characterization of three bacterial isolates from different sites of East Calcutta Wetland (ECW). These isolates show tolerance to heavy metals like Ag, Al, Cu, Cr, Co, Ni, Pb and were found to be efficient metal accumulators as evident from Energy Dispersive X Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) analysis and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 9,423 accessesView PDFCite
