Abstract
With the advancement of technology, wastewater treatment has become a significant challenge limiting the clean and sustainable development of chemical and metallurgical industries. Foam extraction, based on interfacial separation and mineral flotation, has garnered considerable attention as a wastewater treatment technology due to its unique physicochemical properties. Although considerable excellent accomplishments were reported, there still lacks a comprehensive summary of process features and contaminant removal mechanisms via foam extraction. According to the latest research progresses, the principles and characteristics of foam extraction technology, the classification and application of flotation reagents are systematically summarized in this work. Then comprehensively commented on the application fields and prospects of iterative flotation technology such as ion flotation, adsorption flotation and floating-extraction. The shortcomings and limitations of the current foam extraction technologies were discussed, and the feasible process intensification techniques were highlighted. This review aims to enchance the understanding of the foam extraction mechanism, and provides guidance for the selection appropriate reagents and foam extraction technologies in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explore the pickering emulsion liquid membrane (PELM) performance for removing divalent lead ions (Pb II) from aqueous solution. In the present work, the membrane phase was prepared by dissolving methyltrioctylammonium chloride (Aliquat 336) with Mahua oil and adding oleic acid coated-ferrosoferric oxide (OA-Fe3O4) as magnetic nanoparticles. Experimental investigation on percentage removal of lead ions was carried out by studying the influencing process parameters such as pH, agitation speed, stripping concentration, initial feed concentration, surfactant concentration, treat ratio, M/S ratio and carrier concentration. The optimum condition to remove 98.52% of lead ions from the feed solutions has achieved at a stripping phase concentration of 0.3 M, treat ratio of 3, agitation speed of 300 rpm, initial feed concentration of 10 ppm and stabilizer concentration of 2 wt%. The experimental results were validated using box-behnken response surface methodology. The extraction ability of OA-Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles-based PELM has been evaluated using statistical optimization of all the affecting process factors using the design of the experiments.

Abstract
Hazardous ions, like those of heavy metals, cause significant health and environmental problems when they are discharged into water resources naturally or through various industrial processes. Removing these ions from water is of significant importance in the provision of high-quality water for drinking and agricultural usage. This work discusses current techniques that are frequently used for the removal of heavy-metal ions from aqueous solutions by absorption, particularly the use of biodegradable surfactants in ion flotation. Certain new surfactants promise high efficiency in their use in the ion-flotation process and in their application in industrial-water treatment to remove heavy metals. As an example, this work demonstrates the high efficiency of surfactants based on an amino-acid (L-cysteine) in removing a range of heavy-metal ions in a simple, single-stage ion-flotation process. High foaming ability, the ability to operate in various temperatures and pHs, decomposing into natural products and high binding affinity for heavy-metal ions make the cysteine-based surfactants a highly suitable compound to replace current commercial surfactants in ion- and froth-flotation processes. Removal of particular ions can also be achieved in ion flotation; a suitable choice of parameters, such as pH and surfactant concentration, favours the surfactant binding to those ions. Further intensive work is required to develop an optimal process to recover valuable elements from waste solutions.

Abstract
The increase in photovoltaic panel installations in Europe will generate vast amounts of waste in the near future. Therefore, it is important to develop new technologies that allow the recycling of end-of-life photovoltaic panels. This material can serve as a secondary resource, not only for precious metals (e.g. silver), but also for base metals. In this work, the extraction and recovery of the base metals copper, zinc and lead from a copper-rich photovoltaic panel residue was investigated. The material was first leached at 80 °C under microwave irradiation with a mixture of hydrochloric acid, sodium chloride and hydrogen peroxide solutions. Based on the Box-Behnken factorial design optimization, it was possible to extract 81.2% of Cu, 96.4% of Zn and 77.6% of Pb, under the following leaching conditions: [HCl] = 0.5 mol L-1, [NaCl] = 200 g L-1, [H2O2] = 7.5 wt% and t = 60 min. Cementation with iron powder at a 1.2 iron-to-copper stoichiometric ratio allowed the recovery of copper nearly quantitatively (99.8%) as a copper-iron sediment. The gas-liquid separation technique of ion flotation was employed to separate lead and zinc from the dilute copper-free leachate. Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), a cationic surfactant, selectively recovered lead (99.4%) over zinc as lead(ii) tetrachloro cetyltrimethylammonium colloid, after eight ion flotation stages and [CTAB]total = 7.2 mmol L-1. The zinc that remained in the solution after the ion flotation step was recovered by precipitation and by adding sodium sulfide at 110% of the stoichiometric amount after removing iron as ferric hydroxide by slowly raising the pH to 3.7.

Abstract
Mg(OH)2 suspensions were floated utilising sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) and sodium lauroyl isethionate (SLI) collectors, for rapid dewatering of radwaste suspensions. Freundlich adsorption isotherms were first used to compare the adsorption densities of SDS and SLI on Mg(OH)2 surfaces, to determine the maximum monolayer coverage capacity, and were found to be 0.11 μmol m−2 at a dosed concentration of 172 μM for SDS and 0.05 μmol m−2 at a dosed concentration of 188 μM for SLI. The natural and salt induced coagulation kinetics of Mg(OH)2 were examined using static light scattering, where the influence of collector adsorption on particle size distributions was also investigated, to probe potential hydrodynamic limitations of flotation. Particle stabilised foam formation was then characterised using a Bikerman column test, where the dynamic foamability indices (DFIs) of SDS and SLI were determined to be 49 × 103 s L mol−1 and 321 × 103 s L mol−1 respectively. Flotation performance was measured, and a collection efficiency factor used to compare the solid–liquid separation ability of mixed 2.5 vol% suspensions with SDS or SLI, as well as MIBC frother. Optimal performance aligned with collector concentrations relating to predicted maximum monolayer coverage, and whilst both surfactants were effective, SDS systems performed better than SLI in all metrics. Recoveries of >80% of the Mg(OH)2 wastes were achieved, whilst only transferring 35% of the water mass at the optimum SDS dosed concentration of 82 μM, likely due to its denser surface adsorption and minimised lamella water entrainment. Mg(OH)2 suspensions were floated utilising sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) sodium lauroyl isethionate (SLI) collectors, for rapid dewatering of radwaste suspensions.![]()

Abstract
Adsorption based on natural fibre seems to widely used for oily wastewater recovery due to its low cost, simplicity, feasibility, easy handling, and effectiveness. However, oil sorbent based on natural fibre without modification has low adsorption capacity and selectivity. Thus, this paper proposes chemical modification of sago hampas to improve its adsorbent efficiency for the removal of palm-based cooking oil. The chemical modification was performed using a cationic surfactant, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The chemical and surface properties of both unmodified and modified sago hampas were characterized by Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Parameters studied for the removal of cooking oil using modified sago hampas were sorption time, adsorbent dosage, and initial pH. The removal capacity was also compared using unmodified sago hampas. The results showed that additional functional groups were introduced on the surface of modified sago hampas. Modified sago hampas also showed a greater porosity than unmodified sago hampas. These properties enhanced the adsorption of palm-based cooking oil onto the surface of modified sago hampas. Modified sago hampas shows better removal of palm-based cooking oil than unmodified sago hampas, where 84.82% and 68.08% removal were achieved by modified and unmodified sago hampas, respectively. The optimum adsorption of palm-based cooking oil was identified at 45 min sorption time, pH 2, and 0.2 g adsorbent dosage.

Abstract
Abstract
In this study, the biosorption of lead (Pb(II)), copper (Cu(II)), and cadmium (Cd(II)) ions from aqueous solution using waste of cabbage leaves powder (CLP) was investigated as a function of pH, shaking time, initial metal concentration, and biosorbent dose. The maximum removal efficiency at optimum condition in single biosorption system was 95.67, 92.42, and 88.92 % for Pb(II), Cu(II), and Cd(II) ions, respectively. These values reduced in ternary systems in the same sequence. Langmuir and extended Langmuir isotherm models were found to be the best fit of the isotherm data for single and ternary biosorption systems, respectively. The kinetic data of the three metals were better fit by the pseudo-second-order model with higher coefficient of determination and more closely predicted uptake. In addition, the results showed that the intraparticle diffusion was the dominating mechanism. Thermodynamic study showed that the biosorption of Pb(II), Cu(II), and Cd(II) onto CLP was a chemical reaction which was exothermic in nature. Finally, SEM image shows that CLP has a number of heterogeneous small pores while the Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic analysis showed that the carboxyl, amine, and hydroxyl groups are the major groups that are responsible for the biosorption process.
