abstract = "Promising new removal of pollutants and the improvement of existing ones make up development of new sorbents with improved sorbing properties. With this aim, this research include the development of hybrid organic-inorganic and combined (bio)sorbents. The use of biomass originated materials for cleansing of wastewaters is extensively studied. Removal of lead ions from aqueous solutions was examined with different materials: Myriophyllum spicatum, peach pits, modified apricot pits, corn cobs, bentonite, zeolite, apatite. Two materials organic and inorganic with best characteristic – capacities of removal Pb(II) were selected for development of combined (bio)sorbents. Selected mixture of 75% M. spicatum and 25% bentonite showed lead binding capacity of 45 mg/g. The main effective biding sites were identified by FTIR spectral comparison of the pure and lead (bio)sorbed material: M. spicatum, bentonite and their best mixture 75%MS-25%B. Our research is applied to the expansion of ways of updating vegetative waste products and mineral materials with the purpose of improving their ability to selectively remove ions of heavy metals and application of this hybrid organic-inorganic - (bio)sorbents is innovative, simple and low cost.",
