Summary: A versatile hybrid coagulant is reported to indescriminately remove various metal ions through the synergistic effect of its organic and inorganic groups. The coagulant achieves nearly full removal of a wide range of metal ions, including free metal ions and a typical complexed metal ion. Free metal ions are captured through complexation with hard and soft bases, while the complexed metal ion is removed via ion exchange and ligand exchange.

Summary: The removal of metal ions by the chelating membrane mainly depends on its adsorption capacity, while the retention of proteins is mainly influenced by their concentration in the solution. The chelating membrane performs poorly when the wastewater has high metal ion concentration and low protein concentration, but shows excellent separation performance when the concentrations are reversed.

Summary: This research evaluates the suitability of Dowex PSR2 and Dowex PSR3, strongly basic anion exchangers, as sorbents for nickel ions in aqueous solutions. Due to the increasing discharge of nickel into wastewaters, primarily from steel production, the search for new solutions is necessary. Nickel sorption experiments were conducted under static conditions, optimizing pH, contact time, concentration, and temperature. Kinetic, isothermal, and thermodynamic parameters were calculated, and the exchangers were characterized using spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The sorption process was found to be most effective at pH 6, after 240 minutes, and at 293K. Thermodynamic parameters indicated exothermic and spontaneous adsorption. Physicochemical analyses combined with experimental research enabled determination of the sorption mechanism of Ni(II) ions.

Summary: The paper investigated the adsorption of alginate-based adsorbents (ALG-based adsorbents) for La(III) ions' removal. Fixed-bed adsorption studies were carried out with different alginate-based adsorbents. The effects of inlet concentrations on breakthrough curves were studied and the best operational parameters were determined using different models. The ALG-based adsorbents showed high desorption efficiency for La(III) ions after passing through 100 cm(3) of 1 mol/dm(3) HCl. Overall, the results demonstrated the potential of ALG-based adsorbents as cost-effective and environmentally friendly materials for La(III) ion recovery.

Summary: This study synthesized novel hydroxyapatite modified biochars and conducted sorption-desorption studies and physicochemical analysis. The hydroxyapatite used for the modification was sourced from egg shells, boiler stone, chalk, and marl. The obtained sorbents showed satisfactory results in removing vanadium ions from aqueous solutions, with BCHAp1 (hydroxyapatite modified biochar from egg shells) achieving a qt of 27.45 mg/g (concentration 100 mg/L) under optimized sorption conditions of pH 3, time 240 min, and temperature 293 K. The sorption process was found to involve a complex, mixed mechanism of physical and chemical interactions, as revealed by the calculated ΔH, ΔS, and ΔG. Washing the sorbents with hydrochloric acid resulted in a desorption efficiency of nearly 80%.

Summary: The use of machine learning to predict the performance of specific adsorbents in phosphate adsorption shows great promise in saving time and revealing underlying mechanisms. However, the small size of the dataset and insufficient detailed information limits the model training process and the accuracy of results. To address this, the study employs a fuzzing strategy that replaces detailed numeric information with descriptive text messages on the physiochemical properties of adsorbents. This strategy allows the recovery of discarded samples with limited information, leading to accurate prediction of adsorption amount, capacity, and kinetics. The study also finds that phosphate uptake by adsorbents is generally through physisorption, with some involvement of chemisorption. The framework established in this study provides a practical approach for quickly predicting phosphate adsorption performance in urgent scenarios, using easily accessible information.
