Environment is a habitat for all living things in the universe. Therefore, it must be preserved, especially on the surface and ground water. Environmental pollution in almost all over the world recently has been in a very alarming level. The main focus of this paper is to analyze the level of pollution on the surface and ground water that is influenced by industrial activities and other human activities. The method used in this research is field and laboratory investigations, and the material analyzed is the surface water and ground water samples. The analysis shows that industrial activities and human activities carried out so far correlated to the occurrence of pollution on the surface and ground water. The analysis showed that the heavy metal Ph at the highest water level of 0.01 mg/L was recorded in Lhokseumawe City. While the highest heavy metal Ph was also found in Lhokseumawe City by 0.0076 mg/L. The results of the analysis of heavy metals in groundwater analyzed at the three locations show that Lhokseumawe City is also the highest with 0.0076 mg/L compared to Bireuen and Aceh Utara District. While Aceh Utara District has the highest pollution for heavy metals Pb of 0.004 mg/L. Thus, there needs to be a supervision in active industries so that environmental pollution can always be stable in the future.

The use of longan skin biosorbents has been shown to reduce environmental pollution caused by heavy metals. Because it has an active site and its facial pores can support the absorption process, it is inexpensive and environmentally friendly. However, the ability of longan skin in absorption has several limitations such as particles that are lightweight, easily damaged and of low specific gravity. To overcome this, various methods have been carried out, one of which is the immobilization of sodium silica. The biosorption method used was the bath method. The results of this study, optimum absorption of Cd metal ions occurred at a concentration of 250 ppm, with a contact time of 120 minutes and a speed of 250 rpm.

On cause of environmental pollution is the presence of heavy metals. Heavy metal such as Cd (II), Pb (II) and Cu (II) are the metals commonly found in water pollution. The untapped shell of ketapang fruit can be used as an absorbent because it has an active side that can bind to the metal ion. From the research with batch sistem was found that the absorption efficiency of metal Cd (II), Pb (II) and Cu (II) by shell of ketapang will be optimum if done at pH 6 with contact time 60 minute for ion Cd(II), 45 minute for ion Pb (II) and 75 minute for ion Cu. The optimum stirring speed of each is 100 rpm, 150 rpm and 100 rpm. The optimum absorption efficiency occured at concentration of 10 mg/L on metal Cd (II) and Pb (II) that are 86,38 % and 98,51 % while the Cu (II) metal at 5 mg/L concentration is 94,06 % with mass of ketapang 0.1 g,0.5 g and 0.5 g each metal ion. The metal ion concentration was analyzed by AAS and the dominant functional group binding metal ions was analiyzed by FTIR Salah satu penyebab pencemaran lingkungan adalah terdapatnya logam berat. Logam berat seperti Cd, Pb dan Cu merupakan logam yang sering ditemukan dalam pencemaran air. Cangkang buah ketapang yang tidak termanfaatkan dapat dijadikan sebagai penyerap karena mempunyai sisi aktif yang dapat berikatan dengan ion logam. Dari penelitian dengan sistem batch didapatkan bahwa efisiensi penyerapan ion logam Cd (II), Pb (II) dan Cu II) oleh cangkang buah ketapang akan optimum jika dilakukan pada pH 6 dengan waktu kontak 60 menit untuk ion Cd (II), 45 menit untuk ion Pb (II) dan 75 menit untuk ion Cu (II). Kecepatan pengadukan optimum masing-masingnya adalah 100 rpm, 150 rpm dan 100 rpm. Efisiensi penyerapan optimum terjadi pada konsentrasi 10 mg/L pada logam Cd(II) dan Pb (II) yaitu 86,38 % dan 98, 51 %, sedangkan logam Cu (II) terjadi pada konsentrasi 5 mg/L yaitu 94,06 % dengan massa cangkang buah ketapang 0.1 g, 0.5 dan 0.5 g pada masing-masing ion logam. Konsentrasi ion logam dianalisis dengan Spektrofotometri Serapan Atom dan gugus fungsi dominan yang mengikat ion logam dianalisis dengan FTIR.

Adsorption is most commonly applied process for the removal of pollutants such as dyes and heavy metals ions from wastewater. The present work talks about preparing graphenic material attached sand grains called graphene sand composite (GSC) by using ordinary sugar as a carbon source. Physical morphology and chemical composition of GSC was examined by using (FTIR, SEM, EDAX and XRD). Efficiency of GSC in the adsorption of organic dyes from water was investigated using reactive green dye with different parameters such as (ph, temperature, contact time and dose). Adsorption isotherm was also studied and the results showed that the maximum adsorption capacity of dye is 28.98 mg/g. This fast, low-cost process can be used to manufacture commercial filters to treat contaminated water using appropriate engineering designs.

Background: The presence of pollutants in polluted water is not singularized hence pollutant species are constantly in competition for active sites during the adsorption process. A key advantage of competitive adsorption studies is that it informs on the adsorbent performance in real water treatment applications. Objective: This study aims to investigate the competitive adsorption of Pb(II), Cu(II), Fe(II) and Zn(II) using elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) biochar and hybrid biochar from LDPE. Method: The produced biochar was characterised by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The effect of adsorption parameters, equilibrium isotherm modelling and parametric studies were conducted based on data from the batch adsorption experiments. Results: For both adsorbents, the removal efficiency was >99% over the domain of the entire investigation for dosage and contact time suggesting that they are very efficient for removing multiple heavy metals from aqueous media. It was observed that removal efficiency was optimal at 2 g/l dosage and contact time of 20 minutes for both adsorbent types. The Elovich isotherm and the pseudo-second order kinetic models were best-fit for the competitive adsorption process. Conclusion: The study was able to successfully reveal that biomass biochar from elephant grass and hybrid biochar from LDPE can be used as effective adsorbent material for the removal of heavy metals from aqueous media. This study bears a positive implication for environmental protection and solid waste management.

AbstractThe heavy metals, such as Cr(VI), Pb(II) and Cd(II), in aqueous solutions are toxic even at trace levels and have caused adverse health impacts on human beings. Hence the removal of these heavy metals from the aqueous environment is important to protect biodiversity, hydrosphere ecosystems, and human beings. In this study, magnetic Nickel-Ferrite Nanoparticles (NFNs) were synthesized by co-precipitation method and characterized using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) and Field Emission Scanning Electronic Microscopy (FE-SEM) techniques in order to confirm the crystalline structure, composition and morphology of the NFN’s, these were then used as adsorbent for the removal of Cr(VI), Pb(II) and Cd(II) from wastewater. The adsorption parameters under study were pH, dose and contact time. The values for optimum removal through batch-adsorption were investigated at different parameters (pH 3–7, dose: 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 mg and contact time: 30, 60, 90, and 120 min). Removal efficiencies of Cr(VI), Pb(II) and Cd(II) were obtained 89%, 79% and 87% respectively under optimal conditions. It was found that the kinetics followed the pseudo second order model for the removal of heavy metals using Nickel ferrite nanoparticles.

AbstractBiomass of algae is a very potent adsorbent for absorbing aqueous waste containing heavy metals and organic dyes. This study purposes to confirm the ability of adsorbents from green algae Nannochloropsis sp. modified with silica (ASN) and followed by coating magnetite particles (ASN-MPs) to absorb simultaneously the mixture of Methylene Blue (ME) and Cu(II) cations in aqueous solution. Simultaneous sorption of ME and Cu(II) cations to ASN and ASN-MPs was carried out by the batch method with the interaction pH condition 7, contact time 90 min, and initial concentrations of ME and Cu(II) cations (0.1–1.0 mM). Based on adsorption data, Cu(II) cations have a greater adsorption rate and capacity (qm) compared to ME at the same contact time and initial concentration. The adsorption capacity (qm) values of the bi-component ME and Cu(II) cation mixture in ASN and ASN-MPs were 1.39 × 10− 1 and 5.32 × 10− 1 mmol g− 1, respectively, with the binary Langmuir adsorption isotherm constant for Cu(II) cations greater than ME. Modified adsorbent from algae Nannochloropsis sp. with silica matrix and magnetite particle coating is an adsorbent that has a high effectiveness in the collective sorption of ME and Cu(II) cations. Therefore, these adsorbents can be used for the adsorption of cation mixtures of heavy metals and organic dyes that are cationic in solution.
