ecological security

Pollution of the aquatic environment with heavy metals, particularly lead (Pb²⁺) and zinc (Zn²⁺) ions, is one of our most pressing environmental problems. Even insignificant concentrations of Pb²⁺ and Zn²⁺ ions in the water pose a serious threat to human health, biodiversity, and the functioning of aquatic ecosystems. The work aims to assess the effectiveness of zeolite as a low-cost natural sorbent for purifying the aquatic environment from toxic metals.
