Adsorption of rhodamine B and methylene blue dyes using waste of seeds of Aleurites Moluccana, a low cost adsorbent

TL;DR: In this article, the removal of cationic dyes by waste seeds Aleurites moluccana (WAM) was studied in a batch system, where the adsorbent was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), point of zero charge measurement, and the Boehm titration method.

Biosorption of Heavy Metals: A Review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the removal of heavy metals from aqueous solutions using various materials of biological origin such as fungi, algae, yeast and bacterial biomass, and highlighted the undelaying features of biosorption and the operation conditions such as pH, dose required, initial concentration, temperature, and treatment performance.
