The presence of lead compounds in the environment is an issue. In particular, supply water
consumption has been reported to be a significant source of human exposure to lead …

Heavy metal pollution has become a more serious environmental problem in the last several
decades as a result of its toxicity and insusceptibility to the environment. This paper attempts …

A continuous fixed-bed study was carried out utilising a breakthrough biosorbent,
specifically multi-metal binding biosorbent (MMBB) for removing cadmium, copper, lead and …

The present study deals with the evaluation of biosorptive removal of Cd (II), Ni (II) and Pb
(II) ions by both intact and pre-treated brown marine algae: Cystoseira indica, Sargassum …

A significant number of biosorption studies on the removal of heavy metal from aqueous
solutions have been conducted worldwide. Nearly all of them have been directed towards …

The biosorption of cadmium (II) ions on Oedogonium sp. is studied in a batch system with
respect to initial pH, algal dose, contact time and the temperature. The algal biomass …

Biosorption of nickel and copper ions from aqueous solution onto treated alga biomass
Undaria pinnatifida has been studied and the Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkine …

Algal biomass possesses tremendous metal binding ability and therefore has great potential
for gleaning these pollutants from wastewaters. The algal cell wall and exopolymers contain …

In order to make it more suitable for biosorption process, algae waste obtained after oil
extraction, have been activated by alkaline treatment and used for cadmium (II) removal in …

Recent years have seen explosive growth in research concerning the use of cellulosic
materials, either in their as-recieved state or as modified products, for the removal of heavy …
