“…The highest removal of As(III) and As(V) was observed at 30°C on powdered P. guajava (guava) leaf [79] as well as on GAC and GAC-Fe [69] and GAC-Cu [73]. Similar trend has been reported by Roy et al [110] using iron impregnated sugarcane carbon and also by Saqib et al [111] using Blue Pine (Pinus wallichiana) and Walnut (Juglans regia).…”

“…These pollutants are considered toxic in the context of wastewater and water treatment. Several sorbents have used for heavy metal removal including activated carbons, polymers, zeolites, clays and other materials (Nadaroglu et al 2010;Dhir and Srivastava 2011;Celebi et al 2012;Kalkan et al 2012;Kamsonlian et al 2012;Nadaroglu and Kalkan 2012;Saka et al 2012;Saqib et al 2013;Dubey et al 2013;Nadaroglu et al 2013). Denim wastes have not been applied in the removal of toxic pollutants from water.…”

In this study, the denim fiber scraps were reused as an alternative low-cost sorbent for the removal of heavy metals Pb 2? , Cd 2? , Zn 2? and arsenic from aqueous solutions. Results showed that this textile waste was an effective sorbent for the removal of these heavy metal ions and offered a better removal performance than those reported for other synthetic and natural sorbents such as activated carbons and zeolites. On the other hand, raw and metal-loaded denim wastes were also useful for the removal of arsenic (V) from aqueous solutions and their sorption capacities were higher than 1.5 mg/g. In particular, the presence of Pb 2? ions on the surface of denim wastes improved significantly its arsenic (V) sorption performance. In summary, the reuse of denim textile wastes in wastewater treatment can be considered as an eco-friendly application that could be useful for waste management and also for reducing the production costs in this important industrial sector.

“…Schwindaman et al (2014) showed that the oxidation conditions significantly impacted As removal in a constructed wetland. It is also possible that the jute material itself could have sorbed As onto the fiber (e.g., Saqib et al, 2013), and this needs to be investigated.…”
