christi Mill.) was clarified by characterizing the biosorbent with Fourier-transform infrared
spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray analyses. The
effect of pH, biosorbent dosage, contact time and temperature on the biosorption yield was
studied. There was an increased tendency for biosorption with increasing temperature for
both metals, and the best biosorption capacity was measured at 40° C. The highest …
