Platinum group metals (PGMs) are precious metals which are widely used in industries because of their specific physical and chemical properties such as corrosion resistance, high melting point, high mechanical strength and good ductility [1].The discharge of PGMs dilute streams represents a loss of unreclaimed water and valuable …
The Platinum Group metal (PGMs) possess specific properties and have been applied for decades in many industrial sectors, for instance as core materials of many electronic devices. They enter as crucial components of fuels cells and as the key ingredients of chemical catalysis used to remove automotive pollutants automatically [1].
1. Introduction. Platinum group metals (PGMs) are a group of six elements, namely iridium (Ir), osmium (Os), platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd), rhodium (Rh) and ruthenium (Ru) [1, 2].PGMs together with gold and silver are classified as noble or precious metals because of their high corrosion and oxidation resistance [1, 2, 3].The …
Platinum-based cytotoxic drugs are complexes of Pt used in 50–70% of cancer patients. This study was performed during 2015, in two oncology wards of Qom hospitals in Iran. Sampling was carried out using effluent of the oncology wards for measurement of total Pt concentration. Analysis was performed by ICP–OES, and limit of …
The removal of platinum group metals from synthetic aqueous solutions using a phosphine and thiourea – functionalized resin, MPX-317, and an anionic resin, SQD, was investigated. The batch methodology was used throughout the studies. The affinity and sorption capacity of selected metal ions Pd(II), Pt(II), Rh(III), Ir(III) were evaluated. The addition of sodium …
Zinc was used for the reduction of the platinum group metals (PGMs) in acidic effluents. Due to the increasing cost of zinc, sodium formate was investigated as an alternative reductant.
The Os record at PVO indicates that fossil combustion is a source of PGE to the environment. Platinum concentrations in gasoline are on the order of 1–6 ng L −1, corresponding to an emission of 0.1–0.6 ng km −1 for a gasoline consumption of 10 L per 100 km (Hoppstock and Michulitz 1997 ).
Solvent extraction of platinum group metals such as: Pd, Pt and Rh was carried out from chloride media with Kelex 100 in the absence and presence of a large amount of tin.

Platinum Group Elements (PGEs) are contaminants of emerging environmental concern considering their continuous increasing use and subsequent release in the environment. ... Spatial mapping of PGE contamination was, to a certain extent, correlated with proxies of urban effluents. The use of Pt/Rh ratios reflected the dominant influence of PGE ...
Platinum group metals (PGM) were separated from gold processing plant effluent using biomaterials with novel functional groups. Different biomass wastes, such as wheat straw, canola meal, and wood bark nuggets were used and immobilized with dithiooxamide (DTO), ethylenediamine (EN), and primary amine (PA) to create 12 novel …
