Removal of Inorganic Contaminants Using Sodalite Synthesized From Alum Sludge
Alum sludge was successfully converted into sodalite adsorbent through a mild hydrothermal for contaminants adsorption in wastewater. ABSTRACT The growing concern over water contamination by potentially toxic metals underscores the need for sustainable and cost‐effective remediation strategies. In this study, sodalite (SOD‐Na) was synthesized from alum

Sintering of Negative and Zero Thermal Expansion Phases in A2M3O12 Family: A Review
This study assesses multiple synthesis methods for A2M3O12 powders, as well as consolidation and sintering routes for preparation of monolithic A2M3O12 ceramics. Correlations between powder features, consolidation, and sintering have been discussed to enable the fabrication of high‐density A2M3O12 monoliths with fine microstructure and improved ...

Phytoremediation of Wastewater From Oil Well Drilling: Potential of Different Plant Species
Purple fountain grass (Cenchrus setaceus “Rubrum”) is a promising plant for using in constructed wetlands treating complex oil drilling effluents. ABSTRACT This study evaluated the removal of contaminants present in wastewater from oil well drilling in the presence of three plant species: water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), cattail (Typha ...

Redox‐Dependent Luminescence in a Pentavalent Uranyl Complex
Redox‐dependent luminescence in a molecular pentavalent uranyl complex supported by a pyridine dipyrrolide pincer ligand is presented. Electrochemical and chemical reduction of the uranyl(VI) species provides a stable uranyl(V) complex that emits blue light from a high‐energy excited state. The anti‐Kasha emission is credited to the presence of “nested”

Hexavalent chromium (Contaminants)
The Food Safety Commission of Japan (FSCJ) conducted a risk assessment of hexavalent chromium, hereinafter referred to as Cr (VI), related to the amendment of the standards for beverages established by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. Major toxicities induced by Cr (VI) were damages to small intestine and anemia in experimental animals.

Hexavalent chromium removal by Osage Orange
Abstract This study explores the sorption potential of Osage Orange ( Maclura Pomifera ) for the removal of Cr(VI) ion. The influence of contact time, solution pH, initial metal concentration, amount of biosorbent and ionic strength on the removal of Cr(VI) ion was studied.

Carcinogenicity of hexavalent chromium.
Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)), a commonly used industrial metal, is a well known human lung carcinogen. Epidemiology and animal studies suggest that the particulate Cr(VI) compounds, specifically the water insoluble compounds, are the more potent carcinogens; however, the carcinogenic mechanism remains unknown.
