Abstract
Human activities across domestic, commercial, and industrial sectors have significantly contributed to the accumulation of pollutants, including heavy metals, inorganic and organic compounds, and dyes, in aquatic environments. To improve water quality, it is crucial to develop a sustainable treatment method for the removal of these contaminants. Modifying cellulose by adding functional groups to its structure enhances its inherent properties which improves its ability to sorb heavy metals. This study focuses on current research into the effectiveness of cellulose as a sorbent for the eradication of heavy metals from effluents. The literature review indicates that modified cellulose-based sorbents are more promising than unmodified cellulose for the heavy metal elimination process. However, to optimize the wastewater treatment process further, it is necessary to explore effective methods such as tempo-oxidation, grafting, esterification, and electrospinning for producing more effective cellulose-based adsorbents and assessing their scalability in industrial applications.
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.
