Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial biosorbents and biosorption
TL;DR: The present review highlights the necessity for the examination of biosorbents within real situations, as competition between solutes and water quality may affect the biosorption performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of the equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic parameters of the batch biosorption of nickel(II) ions onto Chlorella vulgaris
TL;DR: In this article, a batch system with respect to temperature and initial metal ion concentration was studied and the activation energy of biosorption (E A ) was determined as 25.92 kJ mole −1 using the Arrhenius equation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biosorption of nickel onto treated alga (Oedogonium hatei): Application of isotherm and kinetic models.
TL;DR: The proposed adsorbent for nickel removal is effective in terms of its performance and the FTIR results of algal biomass showed that biomass has different functional groups and these functional groups are able to react with metal ion in aqueous solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomass-derived biosorbents for metal ions sequestration: Adsorbent modification and activation methods and adsorbent regeneration
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a comprehensive appraisal of the equilibrium modeling of a number of biosorption processes as well as the structural, chemical and morphological modifications and activation of biosorbents.
Journal Article
Review on Bioremediation of Polluted Environment: A Management Tool
TL;DR: Bioremediation and natural attenuation are also seen as a solution for emerging contaminant problems, e.g. endocrine disrupters, landfill stabilization, mixed waste biotreatment and biological carbon sequestration.

Hard and soft acids and bases
TL;DR: In this paper, the rate data for the generalized nucleophilic displacement reaction were reviewed, and the authors presented a method to estimate the rate of the generalized displacement reaction in terms of the number of nucleophiles.

Biosorption of Heavy Metals
Bohumil Volesky,Z. R. Holan +1 more
TL;DR: The state of the art in the field of biosorption is reviewed, with many references to recent reviews and key individual contributions, and the composition of marine algae polysaccharide structures, which seem instrumental in metal uptake and binding are discussed.

Advances in the biosorption of heavy metals
David Kratochvil,Bohumil Volesky +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a cost-effective new alternative for the decontamination of metal-containing effluents by using metal biosorption of non-living biomass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial sorption of heavy metals.
TL;DR: The results indicate that bacterial cells are capable of binding large quantities of different metals and Adsorption equations may be useful for describing bacterium-metal interactions with metals such as Cd and Cu; however, this approach may be adequate when precipitation of metals occurs.
