A critical review of biosorption of dyes, heavy metals and metalloids from wastewater as an efficient and green process
Open accessAbstract
Wastewater contains many organic and inorganic pollutants and discharging them into received waters leads to serious environmental problems. The wastewater that is produced from various industries contains a noticeable amount of dyes; heavy metals and metalloids this has remained one of the major environmental problems facing public health. Unfortunately, the conventional wastewater remediation process is unable to remove dyes and heavy metals completely. One of the widely used water treatment technologies is biosorption, biosorbents are considered to be an emerging green, cost-effective, and efficient alternative. Therefore, the search for locally or regionally available biomasses for heavy metals/metalloids and dyes removal gained rapid attention. Methylene blue, Crystal violet, Reactive black 5, and Congo red; Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, Hg, Ni, and Zn; and As were selected as examples for dyes, heavy metals, and metalloids, respectively, In this regard, a comprehensive understanding of the biosorption capability of different biosorbents is necessary to know how they can remove inorganic and organic contaminants in wastewater. Biosorption is an ion exchange, complexation, and coordination process. Besides, the recent advances in various biomaterials-based biosorbents and different approaches of pollutants removal from wastewater with several examples to provide a backdrop for future research have been reviewed. This can be beneficial for developing more effective technologies to eliminate contaminants, thus bridging the gap between laboratory results and industrial use. crustacean shells, algae, chitosan are the most effective biosorbents. These biosorbents can serve as good alternatives to synthetic materials for pollutants removal from wastewater.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
