BIOSORPTION OF PRECIOUS AND HEAVY METALS* [PDF]
The biosorption of metals has already attracted a great deal of attention because of its application potential in environment protection and removal or recovery of precious and heavy metals. The research activities about biosorption of precious and heavy

Freshwater green macroalgae as a biosorbent of Cr(III) ions
The research was conducted to evaluate the possibility of using algae enriched with Cr(III) ions as a feed additive for horses. As a sorbent, macroalga Cladophora glomerata was chosen. The results of the kinetic and equilibrium experiments on biosorption

Effects of biosorption parameter: kinetics, isotherm and thermodynamics for Ni(II) biosorption from aqueous solution by Circinella sp. [PDF]
Circinella sp. was employed as a biosorbent for removal of Ni(II) from aqueous solution. The biosorption kinetics and isotherms were investigated. The effect of several parameters, such as biosorbent dosage, contact time, initial concentration, pH and ...

Toxic metal removal by Biosorption
Toxicity of Flouride and Chromate ions is well known,causing Fluorosis and Cancer respectively. Arsenic , mercury, lead and cadmium are highly toxic even at low levels. Zn( ll) is substituted in metallo enzymes by cadmium. Toxic As ( lll) inhibits enzyme action. Mercury is responsible for Minimata disease while lead poisoning occurs due to its presence

Effect of pH on cadmium biosorption by coconut copra meal
[[abstract]]Biosorption of cadmium ion by coconut copra meal, an agricultural waste product was investigated as a function of initial solution pH and initial cadmium concentration. Pseudo-second-order kinetic analyses were performed to determine the rate
