Water quality is deteriorating continuously as increasing levels of toxic inorganic and
organic contaminants mostly discharging into the aquatic environment. Removal of such …

With globally increased human population and industrialization, the natural sources of water
are reduced and then contaminated. Therefore, development of advanced technologies for …

Chitosan and its modifications have received great attention over the past few decades due
to its outstanding adsorption behavior toward various toxic heavy metals from aqueous …

The smart combination of agriculture and other sciences can greatly reduce the limits of
fertilizer use. Chitosan is a linear amino polysaccharide with a rigid structure which has …

Chronic contamination of groundwaters by both arsenic (As) and fluoride (F) is frequently
observed around the world, which has severely affected millions of people. Fluoride and As …

Magnetic chitosan composites (MCCs) are a novel material that exhibits good sorption
behavior toward various toxic pollutants in aqueous solution. These magnetic composites …

Chitosan is among one of the most important and most studied natural polymers. The
cationic nature of chitosan makes it a polymer of high importance from environmental and …

In this work, chitosan-modified biochars were synthesized in efforts to produce a low-cost
adsorbent for heavy metal environmental remediation. Characterization results showed that …

Permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) are significant among all the promising remediation
technologies for treating contaminated groundwater. Since the first commercial full field …

Providing drinking water with safe arsenic levels in Latin American (LA) countries (a total of
22 countries) is a major current challenge. Arsenic's presence in water has been neglected …
