Biosorption of Pharmaceutical Pollutant
2015The adsorption of penicillin onto dried biomass was studied as a function of initial penicillin concentration and temperature. The maximum penicillin adsorption yield was obtained at the temperature of 30 °C; the equilibrium uptake increased with increasing initial penicillin concentration.

The term biosorption describes the passive (i.e. not metabolically mediated) binding of heavy metals by dead or living biomass. The term bioaccumulation, on the other hand, refers to active processes which require the metabolic activity of living organisms. Biosorption can be employed to eliminate heavy metals from industrial effluents (e.g.

Modeling of Biosorption Processes
2010Biosorption entails the use of microbial or plant biomass, usually inactivated, to remove toxic metal ions in aqueous solutions. It is particularly effective in dealing with low concentration, high volume metal waste streams. Although biosorption processes have not yet been commercialized to any significant extent, they offer a promising area for ...

BIOSORPTION OF HEAVY METALS BY FUNGAL BIOMASS AND MODELING OF FUNGAL BIOSORPTION: A REVIEW
Separation and Purification Methods, 2001The wastewaters discharged from chemical industries which may contain heavy metal ions have toxic effect on all the living organisms. Because of this, disposal of them to the environment is a major threat to both human health and ecosystem. So the development of new technologies is required to treat wastewaters as an alternative to traditional ...
