چکیده

The aim of the present study was to reduce the Ni (II) ions present in the waste water which is highly toxic to the environment. Biosorption experiments were carried out in a batch process which includes the factors like pH, contact time, size variation, adsorbent dose and metal ion concentration. The maximum percentage removal of Ni (II) ions in the aqueous solution is 96.95 % at pH 6 and contact time 40 min. Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were applied to describe the equilibrium data. Kinetic models like Pseudo first order and Pseudo – second order both fit well for the biosorption process. The results show that the leaves of Araucaria cookii can be efficiently used for the removal of Ni (II) ions as low cost biosorbent.

Biosorption of Ni(II) from electroplating wastewater by modified (Eriobotrya japonica) loquat bark

ss as: Sa t bark. Abstract Biosorption of nickel ions from aqueous solutions by modified loquat bark waste (MLB) has been investigated in a batch biosorption process. The biosorbent MLB was characterized by FTIR analysis. The extent of biosorption of Ni(II) ions was found to be dependent on solution pH, initial nickel ions concentration, biosorbent dose, contact time, and temperature. The exper...

Removal of nickel and total chromium using Escherichia coli biofilm supported on clinoptilolite

-Biofilm is communities of microorganisms attached to the surface and is able to concentrate metal species within their cell structure. Therefore, the aim of this study was to produce Escherichia coli biofilm on zeolite (clinoptilolite) and evaluate its ability for nickel (Ni) and chromium (Cr) adsorption from aqueous solutions. A laboratory-scale batch model was used for biodsorption assay. Th...
