Biogenic selenium, Se(0), has colloidal properties and thus poses solid-liquid separation problems, such as poor settling and membrane fouling. The separation of Se(0) from the bulk liquid was assessed by centrifugation, filtration, and coagulation-flocculation. Se(0) particles produced by an anaerobic

Composite metal-organic frameworks combine large and accessible surface areas with low density and high stability. Herein, we present novel nanocomposites of polypyrrole/aluminum fumarate metal-organic framework (PPy/AlFu MOF), which were synthesized via in situ oxidative polymerization with the aim of MOF
