Article Synopsis
  • Low-cost industrial by-products like calcite are being studied as effective materials for removing lead from wastewater, aligning with the European circular economy strategy.
  • Research shows that as lead concentration increases, different lead compounds precipitate on the calcite surface, indicating a complex interaction at various concentrations.
  • Nearly 100% lead removal efficiency was observed, especially at lower concentrations, with sorption capacity significantly increasing at higher lead levels, showcasing calcite's potential as a sorbent for environmental cleanup.
