Chicken feather is a waste that can be used as an alternative to adsorbents that can be used to overcome environmental pollution in waters containing heavy metal pollutants, especially on metal Zn (II) ions, Biomass Chicken Feathers using NaOH and Na2SO3 as adsorbent activation and proven using FTIR spectrophotometer . The metal adsorbent of Zn (II) ion by chicken feather biomass has been influenced to the variation of pH of the solution, mass of adsorbent, contact time, and concentration of chicken feather biomass. The method used is the method of "batch" and the metal concentration of Zn (II) ions measured by an atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS). Optimal variations that have been achieved under conditions of pH 6, adsorbent mass 0.7 gram, contact time for 80 minutes, and optimal concentration at 100 ppm with absorption of Zn (II) metal on chicken feather biomass of 6.04 mg/g. The metal adsorbent Zn (II) using chicken feather biomass is more in line with the Langmuir isothermal model with an adsorption capacity (Qo) value of 6.45 mg/g.

AbstractChromium (Cr) is a common toxic heavy metal that is widely used in all kinds of industries, causing a series of environmental problems. Nanoscale zero- valent iron (nZVI) is considered to be an ideal remediation material for contaminated soil, especially for heavy metal pollutants. As a material of low toxicity and good activity, nZVI has been widely applied in the in situ remediation of soil hexavalent chromium (Cr(vi)) with mobility and toxicity in recent years. In this paper, some current technologies for the preparation of nZVI are summarized and the remediation mechanism of Cr(vi)-contaminated soil is proposed. Five classified modified nZVI materials are introduced and their remediation processes in Cr(vi)-contaminated soil are summarized. Key factors affecting the remediation of Cr(vi)-contaminated soil by nZVI are studied. Interaction mechanisms between nZVI-based materials and Cr(vi) are explored. This study provides a comprehensive review of the nZVI materials for the remediation of Cr(vi)-contaminated soil, which is conducive to reducing soil pollution.

In the South Coastal Forest area, West Sumatra, a luminous mushroom with the species Neonothopanus Sp. This research was conducted with the aim of seeing the effect of heavy metals on the bioluminescence reaction of luminous mushrooms. Starting from the effect of heavy metal concentrations on the intensity and inhibition coefficient of luminous mushroom biolumination. From the measurement results, the maximum intensity value of luminous mushrooms is 499.6 au occurring at a wavelength of 505 nm. At a wavelength of 505 nm, visible light is produced in green. The results obtained are in accordance with observations, because the light emitted by the glowing mushroom is green. If the concentration of heavy metals is greater, the intensity of the bioluminescent fungus (Neonothopanus sp) will decrease. The type of heavy metal affects the intensity of the fungus biolumination. The greatest decrease in intensity occurred in copper (Cu) and iron (Fe), zinc (Zn) and lead (Pb). If the heavy metal concentration is greater, the inhibition coefficient will be smaller. The greatest inhibition coefficient due to the presence of heavy metals occurs in copper (Cu) then iron (Fe), zinc (Zn) and the smallest is lead (Pb).

Consider heavy metal pollution of topsoil in the city of world today is a hot science research project. A fuzzy clustering algorithm l is constructed ed by analyzing the propagation characteristics of heavy metal pollutants. Considering topography, areas, factories, roads, , irredentist, etc. we calculate a evaluation on comprehensive pollution, and the degree of heavy metals pollution, by using fuzzy clustering and fuzzy AHP. The results show that the index of the comprehensive pollution of heavy metals on the region, and the weight of pollution of each category.
