Phytoremediation: Mechanisms, plant selection and enhancement by natural and synthetic agents

Arjun Kafle, Anil Timilsina, Asmita Gautam et al. · 25 Feb 2022

With current intensive agriculture practices and industrialization, pollution of natural resources like land and water with heavy metals, organic pollutants, radionuclides, pesticides, and fertilizers has become a major concern. Phytoremediation is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly technique that utilizes plants to immobilize, uptake, reduce toxicity, stabilize, or degrade the compounds that are released into the…

A comprehensive review on conventional and biological-driven heavy metals removal from industrial wastewater

Shaikh Abdur Razzak, Mohammed Omar Faruque, Zeyad Alsheikh et al. · 10 Jan 2022

Due to high concentrations of numerous harmful and hazardous pollutants, particularly heavy metals, industrial wastewater has become a major problem. Heavy metal pollution and its implications for human health and the environment have increased research in developing low cost and sustainable remediation technology. Diverse conventional physicochemical and green biological methods are applied to remove heavy…

Zeolite synthesis from low-cost materials and environmental applications: A review

Abdul Khaleque, Md Masruck Alam, Mozammel Hoque et al. · 13 Nov 2020

Zeolites with the three-dimensional structures occur naturally or can be synthesized in the laboratory. Zeolites have versatile applications such as environmental remediation, catalytic activity, biotechnological application, gas sensing and medicinal applications. Although, naturally occurring zeolites are readily available, nowadays, more emphasis is given on the synthesis of the zeolites due to their easy synthesis in…

Plastic pollution during COVID-19: Plastic waste directives and its long-term impact on the environment

Mehnaz Shams, Iftaykhairul Alam, Md Shahriar Mahbub · 27 Sep 2021

Majority of the million tons of plastic produced each year is being disposed after single-use. Plastic bottle, bags, food containers, gloves, and cup that end up in landfills and environment could linger for hundreds to thousands of years. Moreover, COVID-19 pandemic caused by the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), will also exacerbate the global plastic pollution as…

Carbon-based material derived from biomass waste for wastewater treatment

Muhammad Shamil Soffian, Faezrul Zackry Abdul Halim, Farhana Aziz et al. · 14 Jun 2022

Biomass waste has known as a new precursor for the production of carbon-based materials due to its carbon richness, low cost, ease to access, ubiquitous, renewable and environmental-friendliness. In this publication, the study on the availability of biomass waste and the carbon-based materials (CBMs) for wastewater treatment application is reviewed and addressed. This paper discussed…
