Abstract
This review critically assesses the use of various adsorbents for the removal of Nickel (II) ions from contaminated water sources, with a focus on identifying sustainable, cost-effective solutions for wastewater treatment. The primary goal is to contribute to the development of efficient and affordable purification technologies by exploring innovative adsorbents and optimizing the conditions for their use. Significant findings from the review of over 140 papers highlight the potential of agricultural solid wastes, natural materials, and biosorbents, which demonstrate robust Ni(II) ion removal capacities and strong adsorption characteristics. These adsorbents are presented as promising alternatives to conventional methods, offering practical applications not only in wastewater treatment but also in broader environmental management. The study also outlines future research directions, emphasizing the need for comprehensive testing of these adsorbents under diverse operational conditions to ensure their scalability and applicability in real-world scenarios. The insights provided by this review aim to guide the advancement of sustainable water treatment practices, addressing the pressing global issue of water contamination.
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.
