Sorption Extraction of Heavy Metal Ions from Industrial Sewage

Abstract

Contaminated water purification from products of anthropogenesis activity remains one of the main problems that chemists and ecologists are facing nowadays. The main mass of pollutants in the form of toxic compounds of heavy metals is made by insufficiently purified and untreated sewage from the mining and machine-building industries. Industrial sewage treatment has become one of the most common technological processes, thus the issues of its improvement and optimization are especially relevant.
