چکیده

in this research, the batch removal of toxic hexavalent chromium ions from wastewater and aqueous solution using dried (bd) sargassum sp. (brown marine algae) and activated carbon (ac) prepared from it was examined. biomass, ph and the initial concentration of cr(vi), adsorption models and kinetic studies were investigated. the experiment was performed in a batch system and theeffect of solution ph, initial concentration and contact time on biosorption by both biomasses were investigated and compared. when we used ac and bd as biosorbents, optima conditionswere established at ph=2.0, cr6+ concentration at 3.69 mg/g bd and 6.877 mg/g acand equilibrium time of 120 min. the adsorption was in therange of 83.55% and 91.98%, respectively. the experimental adsorption data were fitted to the langmuir adsorption model.the chromium (vi) uptake by the biosorbents was best described by a pseudo second-order rate model.

Removal of Hexavalent Chromium Using Activated Carbons Derived from Marine Algae Gracilaria and Sargassum Sp

Industrial wastewater contain higher quantities of salts besides chromium (VI) ions, therefore, the effect of these salts on the adsorption of chromium (VI) should be studied. In this research, the batch removal of toxic hexavalent chromium ions from wastewater and aqueous solution using two different activated carbon marine algae Gracilaria (red algae) and Sargassum sp. (brown algae) were exam...

Antioxidant Effects of Brown Algae Sargassum on Sperm Parameters

The occurrence of oxidative stress during the sperm freeze-thaw cycles affects the sperm parameters and eventually leads to a decrease in its reproductive potential. Sperm protection against oxidative reactions during freezing is done by antioxidants. Since the selection of a suitable sperm cryopreservation bank is effective in maintaining acceptable reproductive potential and motility of sperm...
