Abstract
Freshwater resources are limited on the earth, and we have highly contaminated it with various pollutants. Reuse and recycle of wastewater is the need of the hour in the present Anthropocene. Removal of heavy metals from the wastewater is one of the prerequisites for further reuse of the water. Evidence shows that heavy metal contamination can disrupt ecosystem functioning and human health. Several researchers have reported the bio-sorption process using waste material as alternative adsorbents to remove heavy metal from aqueous medium. Despite the advantages of the bio-sorption process, there are still several research need to be included like evaluation of bisorbent against industrial wastewater and its economic assessmment for its commercialization. This review synthesizes the contemporary information on heavy metal (Cd, Pb, Ni, Cr, As, Hg) removal from various biomaterials (plant-based, algae-based, animal/bacteria/fungi/protozoa) from the literature published between 2007 and 2020.
期刊介绍：
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution is an international, interdisciplinary journal on all aspects of pollution and solutions to pollution in the biosphere. This includes chemical, physical and biological processes affecting flora, fauna, water, air and soil in relation to environmental pollution. Because of its scope, the subject areas are diverse and include all aspects of pollution sources, transport, deposition, accumulation, acid precipitation, atmospheric pollution, metals, aquatic pollution including marine pollution and ground water, waste water, pesticides, soil pollution, sewage, sediment pollution, forestry pollution, effects of pollutants on humans, vegetation, fish, aquatic species, micro-organisms, and animals, environmental and molecular toxicology applied to pollution research, biosensors, global and climate change, ecological implications of pollution and pollution models. Water, Air, & Soil Pollution also publishes manuscripts on novel methods used in the study of environmental pollutants, environmental toxicology, environmental biology, novel environmental engineering related to pollution, biodiversity as influenced by pollution, novel environmental biotechnology as applied to pollution (e.g. bioremediation), environmental modelling and biorestoration of polluted environments.
Articles should not be submitted that are of local interest only and do not advance international knowledge in environmental pollution and solutions to pollution. Articles that simply replicate known knowledge or techniques while researching a local pollution problem will normally be rejected without review. Submitted articles must have up-to-date references, employ the correct experimental replication and statistical analysis, where needed and contain a significant contribution to new knowledge. The publishing and editorial team sincerely appreciate your cooperation.
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution publishes research papers; review articles; mini-reviews; and book reviews.
