  • Cadmium and lead are dangerous metals that can pollute the environment and harm living things, including humans.
  • Researchers created a small and easy-to-use sensor to detect these metals in seawater using a special technique.
  • They tested this sensor with a sea creature called Styela plicata and found that it can help clean up polluted water by absorbing these heavy metals.

This work enters in the optics of the denitrification of a polluted water by two membrane techniques, the Donnan dialysis (DD) and the ion exchange membrane bioreactor (IEMB), using a conventional barrier, composed by an anion exchange membrane (AEM), and a hybrid barrier, where the AEM is combined to an anion exchange textile (AET). The effects of the hydrodynamic factor and the nature of the carbon source on the transfer and the reduction of nitrate ions were studied. The study results obtained through the DD showed the effectiveness of the hybrid barrier in the recovery and concentration of nitrate ions.
