Abstract

Language:

Lead is a major cause of environmental concern for industries such as paint, pesticides, battery, and mining due to its potential to cause kidney, liver, brain, and nervous system diseases. This review explores various methods for lead removal in wastewater treatment, focusing particularly on techniques such as electro-coagulation, ion exchange, membrane separation, and biological approaches involving both suspended and attached growth systems. In the context of electro-coagulation, factors influencing lead removal efficiency, including current density, pH, and initial concentration, are examined. The adsorption process is highlighted as an effective method for lead removal, discussing parameters such as pH, initial concentration, adsorbent dose, and particle size. Additionally, the use of low-cost and waste materials for adsorbent preparation is emphasized. The review summarizes significant research findings on adsorption, encompassing removal efficiencies, isotherms, kinetics, and modeling approaches for both batch and packed bed systems. This comprehensive analysis aims to inform and guide future research efforts in the field of lead removal from wastewater.
