Biosurfactant production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from mining waste: From genomic analysis to development of a polymeric composite for removal of hexavalent chromium

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Biosurfactant was produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa using andiroba waste from Amazonia. A biosurfactant–alginate composite (Alg/BioS) was successfully synthesized via ionotropic gelation, and achieved up to 70% Cr6+ removal from water. Abstract Environmental contamination by heavy metals represents a significant challenge due to their persistence in ...

Carbon‐Modified SnS2/g‐C3N4 S‐Scheme Heterostructure with Enhanced Interfacial Charge Transfer for Efficient Photocatalytic Reduction of Cr(VI) and 4‐Nitrophenol

Small, EarlyView.
The S‐scheme of SnS2‐C/g‐C3N4 heterostructure enables Photocatalytic Cr(VI) and 4‐NP reduction. ABSTRACT Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) and 4‐nitrophenol (4‐NP) are persistent and highly toxic water pollutants that require efficient treatment under mild conditions. In this work, L‐cysteine‐derived carbon‐modified SnS2 (SnS2‐C) was prepared hydrothermally

Biosorption of hexavalent chromium by Pleurotus ostreatus [PDF]

Heliyon, 2019
The existing techniques for the removal of heavy metals are expensive and frequently inefficient. Thus the application of biosorbents has arisen as an alternative, this being emergent technology that must be studied and explored, with the aim of promoting better environmental and human life quality.

Hexavalent chromium removal by ferrochromium slag [PDF]

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2005
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the potential of Cr(VI) generation during jigging operation applied for ferrochrome recovery from slag. The Cr(VI) concentrations of water contacted with ferrochromium slag (W/FS=10) in a closed cycle after 50 batches were found as 0.61 mg/l.

Beyond Total Content: Assessing the Bioaccessibility of Metals in Tattoo Inks Using Validated Extraction Media

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, December 2026.
ABSTRACT A validated analytical workflow is presented for determining total and bioaccessible concentrations of regulated elements in tattoo inks, addressing the lack of harmonized protocols for comparing extraction approaches in complex matrices. Although current legislation defines limits for soluble fractions of selected metals, it does not specify ...
