Reuse of vegetable wastes for the removal of metal ions from aqueous solutions.
Dr.Isabel Villaescusa

University of Girona, Catalonia, Spain

THURSDAY 28 OCTOBER 2004

Several vegetable wastes including crushed olive stones from olive oil production and grape stalks from wine production have been used as alternative materials to polymeric resins for the removal of metal ions from aqueous solutions. In her presentation, Dr Villaescusa will outline how these wastes may be used in either their natural form or encapsulated in calcium alginate beads for the decontamination of waters.
