scholarly journals Determination of Sensitivity to Pollutants Impact of Mollusc Installed into the “Symbio” Water Toxicity Operational Monitoring System. Statement 2. Heavy and Non-ferrous Metal Ions in more than 20 MPC Range of Concentrations for Domestic/recreational Water Bodies

Author(s):  

Results of experiments on assessment of sensitivity of mollusc installed into the “Symbio” water toxicity operational monitoring system in respect of ions of copper (2+), zinc (2+), cadmium (2+), lead (2+) and chromium (6+) exceeding 20 MPC for domestic/recreational water bodies.

Regularity of heavy metal ions isolation from waste waters with modified montmorillonit hydrosoles has been studied. The agents’ sorption characteristics have been investigated. The possibility of heavy non-ferrous metal ions isolation up to the current norms of permissible discharge to water bodies has been demonstrated.

The growth of industry fulfills our necessity and promotes economic development. However, pollutants from such industries pollute water bodies which pose a high risk for living organisms. Thus, researchers have been urged to develop an efficient method to remove toxic heavy metal ions from water bodies. The adsorption method shows promising results for the removal of heavy metal ions and is easy to operate on a large scale, thus can be applied to practical applications. Numerous adsorbents were developed and reported, among them hydrogels, which attract great attention because of the reusability, ease of preparation, and handling. Hydrogels are generally prepared by the cross-linking of polymers that result in a three-dimensional structure, showing high porosity and high functionality. They are hydrophilic in nature because of the functional groups, and are non-toxic. Thus, this review provides various methods of hydrogel adsorbents preparation and summarizes recent progress in the use of hydrogel adsorbents for the removal of heavy metal ions. Further, the mechanism involved in the removal of heavy metal ions is briefly discussed. The most recent studies about the adsorption method for the treatment of heavy metal ions contaminated water are presented.
