Vanadium(V) is a highly toxic multivalent, redox-sensitive element. It widely distributed in the environment and employed various industrial applications. Interactions between V (micro)organisms have recently garnered considerable attention. This Review discusses biogeochemical cycling of its corresponding bioremediation strategies. Anthropogenic activities resulted elevated environmental concentrations compared to natural emissions. The global distributions atmosphere, soils, water bodies, sediments are outlined here, with notable prevalence Europe. Soluble V(V) predominantly exists exhibits high mobility chemical reactivity. transport within media across food chains also discussed. Microbially mediated transformation evaluated shed light on primary mechanisms underlying microbial reduction, namely electron transfer enzymatic catalysis. Additionally, this highlights strategies by exploring their geochemical influences technical implementation methods. identified knowledge gaps include particulate speciation associated behaviors as well processes marine environments. Finally, challenges for future research reported, including screening hyperaccumulators V(V)-reducing microbes field tests approaches.

Heavy metals pose a significant threat to ecosystems and human health because of their toxic properties ability bioaccumulate in living organisms. Traditional removal methods often fall short terms cost, energy efficiency, minimizing secondary pollutant generation, especially complex environmental settings. In contrast, molecular simulation offer promising solution by providing in-depth insights into atomic interactions between heavy potential adsorbents. This review highlights the for removing types pollutants science, specifically metals. These powerful tool predicting designing materials processes remediation. We focus on specific like lead, Cadmium, mercury, utilizing cutting-edge techniques such as Molecular Dynamics (MD), Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, Quantum Chemical Calculations (QCC), Artificial Intelligence (AI). By leveraging these methods, we aim develop highly efficient selective unravelling underlying mechanisms, pave way developing more technologies. comprehensive addresses critical gap scientific literature, valuable researchers protection health. modelling hold promise revolutionizing prediction metals, ultimately contributing sustainable solutions cleaner healthier future.
