Reducing or eliminating ions of toxic heavy elements such as iron and zinc from aqueous solutions has been adopted in this research. The batch process is used to remove metal ions using a cheap adsorbent material that is called hawthorn nucleus. In addition, the influences of contact time, pH, metal ions concentration, and adsorbent dose on the removal percentage have been studied.
The paper suggests the solution to the urgent problem of increasing the level of environmental safety of industrial wastewater treatment from heavy metal using natural and modified bentonite.The use of spent bentonite in the processes of filling polymers is investigated. The aim of the research was to study the influence of fillers on the crosslinking course and functional properties of vulcanized elastomeric mixtures. Test research compositions included chloroprene rubber and chlorosulfonated polyethylene. Nanofillers were used as a strengthening substance.
