Metal contamination of a few aquatic, atmospheric, and soil ecosystems has increased ever
since the industrial revolution, owing to discharge of such elements via the effluents of some …

Microorganisms play important roles in the environmental fate of toxic metals and
radionuclides with a multiplicity of mechanisms effecting transformations between soluble …

The present work represents the biosorption of Cd (II) and Pb (II) from aqueous solution onto
the biomass of the blue green alga Anabaena sphaerica as a function of pH, biosorbent …

The biosorption of cadmium (II) and lead (II) ions onto a natural, plentiful and low-cost
biosorbent developed from cactus cladodes was investigated in batch mode. Experiments …

The sorption of Cu2+, Cd2+, Pb2+, and Zn2+ by a dried green macroalga Caulerpa
lentillifera was investigated. The removal efficiency increased with pH. The analysis with FT …

Microorganisms play an important role in the bioremediation of heavy metal-contaminated
wastewater and soil. In this research, isolation of heavy metal-resistant fungi was carried out …

The biosorption of cadmium and lead ions from artificial aqueous solutions using waste
baker's yeast biomass was investigated. The yeast cells were treated with caustic, ethanol …
