Varanasi: A comparative study conducted by a team from IIT (BHU) revealed the adsorption capacity of vented and non-extractable beads in the removal of copper, nickel and nickel. zinc ions from the aqueous phase. The research is published in the Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering, published by Taylor and Francis online.
The study found that both the fired and non-extracted beads could be reused for up to four cycles of adsorption-dissolution. A comparison of the adsorption capacity showed that the non-removed beads removed copper, nickel and zinc ions better than the non-fired beads. Between random forest regression and decision tree regression, the former predicted better outcomes than the latter based on bootstrap aggregation and multiple decision trees.
Principal researcher at the School of Biochemical Engineering, Dr. Vishal Mishra Said adsorption is a cost-effective and environment-friendly method to tackle heavy metal pollution.
He added, “The present research work advances our understanding of metal ion adsorption on novel beads and will aid in future applications through the accumulation of reliable data in the scientific literature.” Other members of the team include Jyoti Singh and Sarvanshi Swarup.
Doctor Mishra stated that machine learning algorithms were used to identify scale-up criteria and reactor configurations for beads-mediated reactors.
He said that recent research on metal ion adsorption prediction has focused on machine learning and artificial intelligence which reduces the number of experiments, time and complexity and also saves time and resources.
Dr Mishra said that heavy metals are non-biodegradable, harmful and persistent pollutants in the environment. Zinc is the 23rd most abundant element in the Earth’s crust, and its concentration in wastewater is steadily increasing. Zinc occurs in water from plating and mining operations, fertilizer and fiber plants, and paper mills. n
Contamination of naturally occurring and man-made copper in water has been documented. Copper overdose can cause convulsions, convulsions, vomiting, and even death. The forging, mineral processing, steam power plants, and paint manufacturing industries are a major source of discharge nickel pollution. ,
Dr Mishra said that cheap and eco-friendly adsorbents should be developed.
