Investigation of the simulated microgravity impact on heavy metal biosorption by Saccharomyces cerevisiae

This research shows that yeast commonly used in bread and beer production can absorb dangerous heavy metals from water, and this ability is even stronger in simulated weightlessness conditions. The metal-yeast complexes remain stable as they pass through the digestive system, making them safe for astronauts and potentially useful for cleaning contaminated drinking water in the food and beverage industry.

Iron-Modified Alkaline Lignin Chitosan Aerogel Microspheres for Sb(III) Removal in Water

Researchers developed a new material made from iron, lignin (a plant-derived substance), and chitosan that can effectively remove poisonous antimony from contaminated water. When tested, this material successfully removed over 95% of antimony from water samples and could be reused multiple times. The material works by creating chemical bonds with antimony molecules, trapping them on its surface. This environmentally friendly solution could help treat industrial wastewater containing multiple types of heavy metals.
