Biosorption of Cadmium by Fucus spiralis [PDF]
Environmental Chemistry, 2004 Environmental Context. Conventional processes for the removal of heavy metals from wastewaters generally involves chemical precipitation of metals (changing the pH) followed by a period to allow the metal precipitates to settle and be separated. These processes are inefficient when the metals are at a low concentration and still demand handling and ...
