Separation of trace heavy metal ions with BaS from solutions of five kinds of systems was studied. One was prepared with the solution (called as original solution here) leached from pyrolusite with pyrite and H2SO4, and the other four kinds of systems were prepared in the laboratory according to the composition of the original solution. They are respectively: a ternary system of NiSO4CoSO4ZnSO4; two quaternary systems of (NH4)2SO4NiSO4CoSO4ZnSO4 and MnSO4NiSO4CoSO4ZnSO4; a quintuple system of MnSO4(NH4)2SO4NiSO4CoSO4ZnSO4. The experiments have researched the effect of reaction time and dosage of BaS on the separation of heavy metal ions. According to the results, it took the five systems 10minutes to reach the equilibrium state and re-dissolution was found in the results. As the increasing of BaS dosage, the residual heavy metal ions would reduce, but the results of five systems were different when the same BaS was used.

As one of the main industrial solid wastes, there are a large number of free alkaloids, chemically bound alkaloids, fluoride, and heavy metal ions in Bayer process red mud (BRM), which are difficult to remove and easily pollute groundwater as a result of open storage. In order to realize the large-scale industrial application of BRM as a backfilling aggregate for underground mining and simultaneously avoid polluting groundwater, the material characteristics of BRM were analyzed through physical, mechanical, and chemical composition tests. The optimum cement–sand ratio and solid mass concentration of the backfilling were obtained based on several mixture proportion tests. According to the results of bleeding, soaking, and toxic leaching experiments, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method was used to evaluate the environmental impact of BRM on groundwater. The results show that chemically bound alkaloids that remained in BRM reacted with Ca2+ in PO 42.5 cement, slowed down the solidification speed, and reduced the early strength of red mud-based cemented backfill (RMCB). The hydration products in RMCB, such as AFT and C-S-H gel, had significant encapsulation, solidification, and precipitation inhibition effects on contaminants, which could reduce the contents of inorganic contaminants in soaking water by 26.8% to 93.8% and the leaching of toxic heavy metal ions by 57.1% to 73.3%. As shown by the results of the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation, the degree of pollution of the RMCB in bleeding water belonged to a medium grade Ⅲ, while that in the soaking water belonged to a low grade II. The bleeding water was diluted by 50–100 times to reach grade I after flowing into the water sump and could be totally recycled for drilling and backfilling, thus causing negligible effects on the groundwater environment.

The manganese sulfate solution leached from low-grade pyrolusite with pyrite and H2SO4 contains heavy metal ions of high concentration, influencing the quality of the final products of manganese compounds and causing manganese ions not to be electrolyzed. The present study was focused on the separation of Co, Ni and Zn ions from the leached solution with BaS. By controlling the pH value at 5.0-6.5, temperature at 50-60°C, reaction time at 15 min and mixing velocity at 78 rpm, the heavy metal ions could be separated effectively. Under the above optimized conditions, the ion concentration of Co, Ni, and Zn in the solution was reduced to 0.06 mg.L-1, 0.27mg.L-1 and 0.01mg.L-1, and the separation efficiency was 99.72%, 99.18% and 99.9% respectively. The obtained pure solution meets the demands of manganese electrowinning.

From 1 to 50 ppm of 10 different heavy metal ions were added to blended muscle taken from freshly killed cod, haddock, flounders, redfish, herring, mackerel, scallops, and lobster, and stored for 24 hr at 0 C. The resulting rancidities were determined by thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values and odours. With some exceptions, Fe++, V++, and Cu++ were the most active catalysts. Fe++ was always more effective than Fe+++. Cd++, Co++, and Zn+ produced randicity with the fatty species but not with any of the other species that were tested. Ni++, Cr++, Ce++, and Mn++ did not accelerate rancidity in any of the muscles. There was considerable difference in the relative susceptibility of muscle from different species to rancidity induced by specific metals. During frozen storage, changes in fish muscle took place that rendered it less susceptible to subsequent metal-induced rancidities.

Calixarenes are well-known supramolecular host molecules with versatile applications. Over the past decades, hundreds of selective and sensitive detections of several analytes have been reported by employing calixarenes as the chemosensor agent. The detection and quantification of metal ions and anions are crucial as heavy metal ions are harmful to living organisms, while monitoring anions is pivotal in the environmental samples. On the other hand, detecting and quantifying biomolecules and neutral molecules are critical due to their irreplaceable role in human health. In this review, we summarized the application of calixarenes as the supramolecular chemosensor agent for detecting metal ions, anions, biomolecules, and neutral molecules through fluorescent spectroscopy to give brief information on the design and development of the chemosensor field. This review updates the world with the application of calixarene derivatives as fluorescent chemosensors and challenges researchers to design and develop better chemosensor agents in the future.

Heavy metal ions contamination has become more serious which is caused by the releasing of toxic water from industrial area and landfill that are very harmful to all living organism especially human and can even cause death if contaminated in small amount of heavy metal concentration. Currently, peoples are using classic method namely electrochemical treatment, chemical oxidation/reduction, chemical precipitation and reverse osmosis to eliminate the metal ions from toxic water. Unfortunately, these methods are costly and not environmentally friendly as compared to bioadsorption method, where agricultural waste is used as biosorbent to remove heavy metals. Two types of agricultural waste used in this research namely oil palm mesocarp fiber (Elaesis guineensis sp.) (OPMF) and mangrove bark (Rhizophora apiculate sp.) (MB) biomass. Through chemical treatment, the removal efficiency was found to improve. The removal efficiency is examined based on four specification namely dosage, of biosorbent to adsorb four types of metals ion explicitly nickel, lead, copper, and chromium. The research has found that the removal efficiency of MB was lower than OPMF; whereas, the multiple metals ions removal efficiency decreased in the order of Pb2+ > Cu2+ > Ni2+ > Cr2+.
