The article is a literature review. It shows the drawbacks of traditional wastewater treatment, heavy metal polluted wastewater in particular. The dangers of heavy metal poisoning have been reported together with main sources of pollution. The current studies on bioadsorbents and techniques involving biomass were presented.
The authors previously proposed an artificial hollow fibre for use as a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) material to produce a wearable sensing system and developed a fabric tactile sensor to apply to it. In this Letter, the authors developed a ball-shaped projection for producing the umbonal fibre to improve sensing performance for normal- and lateral-forces detection. An adhesive was manually...
The authors previously proposed a type of fabric tactile sensor produced by weaving artificial hollow fibres such as clothes. In this study, the authors enlarged its size by using a handloom and investigated the characteristic of the contacted object detection. The authors produced two kinds of fabric tactile sensors having different sizes 87.5×52.0×mm and 180.0×56.0×mm. The pitch values of the detection...
We previously proposed a fabric-type tactile sensor fabricated by using an artificial hollow fiber to produce a wearable sensing system. We now are presenting our newly-developed fabric force sensor, which can detect both normal and lateral forces, that uses an umbonal fiber. The artificial hollow fiber was fabricated by depositing thin metal and an insulation layer on an elastic hollow fiber. We...
