Heavy metals are among the most common pollutants affecting biological systems when ingested with drinking water and food. Heavy metal ions are capable of bioaccumulation in a human body and could cause various metabolic disorders. Here we present the results of using a unique glauconite from the Barguzinsky deposit as an adsorbent for heavy metals. The physicochemical properties of glauconite samples, including the specific surface area, specific pore volume, zeta potential, thermal and elemental analyses and scanning electron microscopy of the surface were studied for different fraction sizes. The sorption properties of the glauconite samples were studied under static conditions for extraction of iron and manganese ions from model solutions. Analysis of the content of the detected ions in solutions and filtrates was performed by the methods of stripping voltammetry. We revealed high sorption properties of glauconite for iron elimination, but comparatively lower ones in removing manganese.

Two forms of morphologically transformed glauconite (GL) involved exfoliated nanosheets (EXG) and nanorods (GRs), which were synthesized by facile exfoliating and scrolling modification under sonication. The two advanced forms (EXG and GRs) were applied as enhanced adsorbents for U(vi) ions and compared with using raw glauconite. The developed GRs structure displays higher saturation retention properties (319.

Constructing underground reservoirs in coal mines can effectively improve the recycling of mine water. Water-rock interactions within underground reservoirs have been demonstrated to improve water quality; however, the mechanisms underlying these water-rock interactions remain unclear, hindering the widespread applications of underground reservoirs. Thus, this study focused on the underground reservoir of the Shendong Daliuta coal mine.

Novel glauconite nanorods (GNRs) were synthesized by the sonication-induced chemical expansion and scrolling process of natural glauconite. The synthetic nanostructure was characterized by different analytical techniques as a superior adsorbent for the malachite green dye (MG). The synthetic GNRs were detected as porous nanorods with an average length of 150 nm to 5 μm, an average diameter of 25 to 200 nm, and a specific surface area of 123.

The paper presents the studies on the processes at the interface of the colloidal suspensions composed of clay mineral - glauconite (GT) and polysaccharide - sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC) with the cold plasma treatment (CPT). The surface composition and chemical binding in NaCMC and GT changes are determined by means of FTIR and XPS (both methods detected the incorporation of oxygen-related functional groups). Moreover, the additional information about both the textural properties and morphological changes on the surfaces before and after CPT are studied using the BET, CHN, SEM HRTEM and STEM-EDS methods.

The influence of the pseudoamphoteric zwitterionic surfactant cocamidopropylbetaine (CAPB) on the stabilizing flocculating properties of the aqueous suspensions of glauconite (GT) with cationic guar gum (CGG) at various pH values was investigated. The following techniques were used: turbidimetry, UV-VIS spectrophotometry, tensiometry, electrophoretic mobility measurements, SEM, CHN, XRD, and FT-IR. It was established that CGG is an effective glauconite flocculant.
