Preface
Agriculture and industrial developments are not possible without the in-
dispensable element water. All living and non-living things require water for
their existence in one way or another. So, if somebody says that ‘water is the
liquid of life’, it is absolutely correct. Nobody can live without water.
The population explosion, increasing urbanization and industrialization
are the major reasons for the depletion of water availability worldwide and
that’s why the water crisis has become a global challenge today. Scientists,
policy makers and academicians are continuously trying hard to address this
problem to the best of their knowledge and abilities, but without complete
success.
11:25:20.
Besides the water crisis, the availability of ‘safe water’ is another associ-
ated challenge. Because of various types of pollutants and impurities present
in water, whatever water is available is not always ‘safe’. Unfortunately
drinking such ‘unsafe’ water is the fate of billions of people around the
world and pure water is always a ‘dream’ for them.
Dissolved solids, synthetic dyes, agriculture runoffs, industrial effluents
and microorganisms are a few of the things responsible for making water
unsafe. The presence of heavy metals is an add-on to this list, and these are
so dangerous that they may actually lead to death. Metals such as arsenic,
cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercury, nickel and zinc are commonly
found at contaminated sites and in aqueous systems. For example, arsenic
poisoning claims thousands of deaths every year in Bangladesh and West
Bengal in India, while lead is very toxic to living organisms, accumulating in
the bones, brain, kidney and muscles, and may be the cause of many serious
disorders such as anaemia, kidney diseases, nervous disorders, sickness and
even death.
The presence of heavy metals in water is due to both natural and an-
thropogenic sources. Natural sources may include parent rocks and metallic

anthropogenic sources.
Removal of these heavy metals is a big problem for everyone. Examples
of the many techniques being tried to achieve this include biosorption,
bioremediation, phytoremediation, photocatalytic processes, use of func-
tionalized magnetic nanoparticles and use of industrial and agricultural
waste.
This book is a sincere effort to showcase the latest research in the field of
heavy metals removal, written by leading scientists and researchers. At this
point in time I express my gratitude to all contributors who made this vol-
ume possible. I hope that the chapters presented will be a good source of
reference material for scientists in their further research and development.
Also, I hope that this book provides an insightful text on the theme of
‘heavy metals removal’ and processes that are being studied, optimized and
developed to sustain both mankind and nature.
I sincerely welcome feedback from all my valuable readers and critics.
Happy reading!

1.1 Introduction
The term ‘‘heavy metal’’ refers to any metal and metalloid element that has a
relatively high density ranging from 3.5 to 7 g cm 3 and is toxic or poisonous
at low concentrations, and includes mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), arsenic
(As), chromium (Cr), thallium (Tl), zinc (Zn), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu) and
lead (Pb). Although ‘‘heavy metals’’ is a general term defined in the litera-
ture, it is widely documented and frequently applied to the widespread
pollutants of soils and water bodies.1 These metals are found widely in the
earth’s crust and are non-biodegradable in nature. They enter into the
human body via air, water and food. A small number have an essential role
in the metabolism of humans and animals in very trace amounts but their
higher concentration may cause toxicity and health hazards. The hazardous

smelting and utilization by ancient civilizations, such as the Romans and the
Phoenicians.
The heavy metals are among the most common pollutants found in was-
tewater. These metals pose a toxicity threat to human beings and animals
even at low concentration. Lead is extremely toxic and shows toxicity to the
nervous system, kidneys and reproductive system. Exposure to lead causes
irreversible brain damage and encephalopathic symptoms.2 Cadmium is
used widely in electroplating industries, solders, batteries, television sets,
ceramics, photography, insecticides, electronics, metal-finishing industries
and metallurgical activities. It can be introduced into the environment by
metal-ore refining, cadmium containing pigments, alloys and electronic
compounds, cadmium containing phosphate fertilizers, detergents and
refined petroleum products. Rechargeable batteries with nickel–cadmium
compounds are also sources of cadmium.3–5 Cadmium exposure causes
renal dysfunction, bone degeneration, liver and blood damage. It has
been reported that there is sufficient evidence for the carcinogenicity of
cadmium.3
Copper, as an essential trace element, is required by biological systems for
the activation of some enzymes during photosynthesis but at higher con-
centrations it shows harmful effects on the human body. High-level exposure
of copper dust causes nose, eyes and mouth irritation and may cause nausea
and diarrhea. Continuous exposure may lead to kidney damage and even
death. Copper is also toxic to a variety of aquatic organisms even at very low

dose and creates severe health hazards to human beings and animals. It
enters the environment through the natural weathering of rocks and an-
thropogenic activities, mining and smelting processes, pesticide use and
coal combustion. The toxicity of arsenic as a result of the contamination of
groundwater bodies and surface waters is of great concern. Arsenic exists as
arsenate, As(V), and arsenite, As(III), in most of the groundwater.9–12 Ad-
sorption and solution pH commonly controls the mobility of arsenic in the
aqueous environment.13–17 Metal oxides of Fe, Al and Mn play a role in the
adsorption of arsenic in aquatic bodies.18–20 Arsenic has been found nat-
urally at high concentration in groundwater in countries such as India,
Bangladesh, Taiwan, Brazil and Chile. Its high concentration in drinking
water causes toxic effects on humans and animals.
The toxicity of mercury has been recognized worldwide, such as in
Minamata Bay of Japan. Mentally disturbed and physically deformed babies
were born to mothers who were exposed to toxic mercury due to con-
sumption of contaminated fish. The natural sources of mercury are volcanic
eruption, weathering of rocks and soils, whereas anthropogenic mercury
comes from the extensive use of the metal in industrial applications, its
mining and processing, applications in batteries and mercury vapor lamps.
Methyl mercury is more toxic than any other species of mercury.
Extensive use of chromium compounds in industrial applications has
discharged huge amounts of wastewater containing toxic chromium species
into water bodies. Chromium enters into the environment by natural inputs

metals and extensive use in the leather and tannery industries.21 Hexavalent
chromium is more toxic than trivalent chromium.
population. Mercury can result from volcanic eruptions and degassing. The
exposure to mercury causes toxicity to the brain, blindness, mental retar-
dation and kidney damage.
Nickel plays an essential role in the synthesis of red blood cells; however,
Published on 16 September 2014 on http://pubs.rsc.org | doi:10.1039/9781782620174-00001
it becomes toxic when taken in higher doses. Trace amounts of nickel do not
damage biological cells, but exposure to a high dose for a longer time may
damage cells, decrease body weight and damage the liver and heart. Nickel
poisoning may cause reduction in cell growth, cancer and nervous system
damage.5–7
The undesirable presence of iron and manganese in drinking water may
pose a toxicity threat to health. However, iron and manganese are required
by the biological system as they play major roles in the hemoglobin synthesis
and functioning of cells. The presence of these metals in water may cause
staining of cotton clothes and give a rusty taste to drinking water. The major
concerns focus on the dietary intake of iron because a higher dose may pose
acute toxicity to newborn babies and young children. The gastrointestinal
tract rapidly absorbs iron that may pose a toxicity risk to the cells and
cytoplasm. The liver, kidneys and cardiovascular systems are the major
toxicity targets of iron. Neurological disturbances and muscle function
damage are the result of toxic effects of manganese in human bodies.
Heavy metals are highly toxic to the fetus and newborn babies, where
higher levels of exposure exist for human beings, mainly to industrial
workers. Metal ions exposure to newborn babies may damage brain memory,

disrupt the function of red blood cells, the central nervous system, physio-
logical and behavioral problems. Severe toxicity from these metals may cause
cancers. Exposure of plants to heavy metals may lead to physiological and
morphological changes and damage to cell function and reduce photo-
synthesis rates. Mutagenic changes have also been observed in several plant
species. Metal ion toxicities may lead to chlorosis, bleaching, nutrient de-
ficiencies and increased oxidation stress in plants. Heavy metals obstruct the
growth of microbes.22 Table 1.1 shows the standards for metal concentration
in drinking water and the health effects.
An arsenic presence in groundwater through the weathering of rocks and
sediments and drinking of arsenic contaminated water causes poisoning to
the blood, central nervous system, lung and skin cancer, breathing prob-
lems, vomiting and nausea. Its presence in Third World countries is be-
coming hazardous. The countries that are suffering with the problems of
arsenic are India, Bangladesh, Taiwan, China, Brazil, Chile, South Korea,
Thailand and Indonesia. Arsenic is a geogenic problem worldwide but an-
thropogenic sources, such as the processing of metals and manufacture of
pesticides and their byproducts, are contributing equally to the levels of
arsenic in the environment.
Severe toxic effects and poisoning by heavy metal ions worldwide and
strict discharge regulations for wastewater effluents to aquatic bodies
requires better treatment techniques. Environmental scientists have de-
veloped several procedures such as coprecipitation, membrane filtration,
