Integrated Assessment of Nickel Electroplating Industrial Wastewater Effluent as a Renewable Resource of Irrigation Water Using a Hydroponic Cultivation System
Abstract:Nickel, a micronutrient essential for plant growth and development, has been recognized as a metallic pollutant in wastewater. The concentration of nickel ions in the water course, exceeding the maximum tolerable limit, has called for an alarming attention, due to the bioaccumulative entry in the water–plant–human food chain, leaving a burden of deteriorative effects on visible characteristics, physiological processes, and oxidative stress response in plants. In this work, the renewable utilization of nickel e… Show more
“…Increases in such HMs can have profound and dangerous effects such as the inhibition of plant photosynthetic pigments and the induction of oxidative stress and ROS production [ 65 , 66 ]. Other effects include human neurological and renal dysfunction [ 67 , 68 ]. Furthermore, in some cases, several types of cancer can proliferate [ 69 ].…”

“…The value of COD is about several hundred milligrams per liter. 26–28 In order to obtain better coating quality, additives are essential. The common types of organic additives in the plating process are shown in Table 1 (in addition to these representative organics, their salts are usually added to the coating to produce synergistic effect).…”
