Materials for Heavy Metals Removal from Waters.

This document discusses the importance of removing heavy metals from water sources due to their increased concentrations from industrial activities. The focus is on adsorption as an effective method for removing pollutants from contaminated streams using various adsorbents. The document highlights several research papers that explore different materials and technologies for heavy metal removal, including the use of yeast cells, magnetic biocomposites, cherry pit biochar, alkali-modified sawdust, nano-biocomposites, calcined mussel shells, mineral-organic hybrid adsorbents, and natural bentonites. These studies demonstrate the potential of these materials for efficient and cost-effective heavy metal removal from water sources. [Extracted from the article]
