Industrial effluents containing heavy metals may consider a major source of contamination
causes serious environmental problems. Decontamination of heavy metals from wastewater …

In recent years, biosorption process has become an economic and eco-friendly alternative
treatment technology in the water and wastewater industry. In this light, a number of …

The paper summarizes the present and future course of biosorption and bioaccumulation, as
the branch of science, pointing out on their basic assumptions, philosophy and the goals …

Biosorption may be simply defined as the removal of substances from solution by biological
material. Such substances can be organic and inorganic, and in gaseous, soluble or …

The marine algae Sargassum sp., Padina sp., Ulva sp., and Gracillaria sp., harvested locally,
were investigated for their biosorption performance in the removal of lead, copper, cadmium …

The study reports removal of heavy metals when present singly or in binary and ternary
systems by the milling agrowaste of Cicer arientinum (chickpea var. black gram) as the …

The accumulation of Cd (II), Cu (II), Pb (II) and Zn (II) at mg L− 1 concentration levels by
inactive freeze-dried biomass of Pseudomonas Putida has been investigated. These metals …

In the present study, the process parameters affecting biosorption were optimized by
adopting Analysis of Mean (ANOM) approach for maximizing the percentage removal of …

In this study, a novel adsorbent was synthesized by functionalizing chitosan with ethylene
glycol-bis (2-aminoethylether)-N, N, N′, N′-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) ligands. The …

The Pb (II) and Cu (II) biosorption characteristics of Aspergillus flavus fungal biomass were
examined as a function of initial pH, contact time and initial metal ion concentration. Heat …
