Heavy metals in soils

Common methods for removing heavy metals have numerous drawbacks, including low efficiency and high costs. In the biosorption of heavy metals, ions biosorbed on surfaces and active sites of biosorbents. In this paper, the relationship between the factors (pH, temperature, biosorbent dosage, retention time and Functional groups) and removal efficiency has been investigated. The purpose of this work is to introduce optimal conditions for biosorption reaction. Also, by introducing various types of biosorbents, expressed the advantages and method of preparation for each one. In various papers, not all biosorption isotherm models have been mentioned, there are described various types of biosorption isotherm, kinetics and thermodynamics models and important process data is set up for quick access to the tables.

Biosorption, an efficient method for removing heavy metals from industrial effluents: A Review

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses four species of grain legumes of the lowland tropics—that is, peanuts, pigeon peas, cowpeas, and mung beans. Various aspects of these species, such as plant improvement, plant protection, growth processes, and management are described. These four species made up 87% of both the cultivated area and total production on a worldwide basis. Some botanical and adaptive characters of tropical lowland grain legumes are summarized to facilitate direct comparisons of their potential for specific situations. Although species are grouped according to their presumed ecological use patterns, considerable overlap occurs in adaptation and in microclimates of particular locales within regions. The chapter describes various comparative features of tropical species, such as (1) plant types, (2) soil and climate preference, (3) susceptibility to pests and diseases, and (4) yielding ability. To emphasize the positive aspects of growing tropical legumes, a broad array of uses for these crops and their beneficial effects on soil and crops are summarized.

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is one of the most important food crops globally with huge yield potential giving remunerative income to the farmers and having excellent nutritional value. It ranks third after rice and wheat in terms of human consumption (FAOSTAT, 2015). Among root and tuber crops, potato ranks first in volume of production and consumption, followed by cassava, sweet potato and yam (FAO, 2008). As potato is a short duration crop, it produces more amount of dry matter, edible energy and edible protein in lesser duration of time than cereals like rice and wheat. Hence potato may play a major role to attain national food security of India. Present trend of shifting more to potato cultivation brings more profits to farmers. Potato plays a crucial role in farm economy due to its great yield potential but the supposed yield is not reached due to several International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 6 Number 12 (2017) pp. 765-771 Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com
