The removal of heavy metals from industrial waste has become crucial in order to maintain
water quality levels that are suitable for environmental and species reproductive health. The …

In this study two types of marine algae: red algae (Callithamnion corymbosum–CC-RAB)
and green algae (Ulva lactuca–UL-GAB), were used for the retention of Cu2+, Zn2+ and …

Many industries have high heavy metals concentrations in their effluents that should be
treated before disposal in drains or natural watercourses. When adsorption process is …

Marine algae are an important biomass resource because of the many properties they have
in solving various environmental problems such as the ability to decontaminate wastewater …

In this study, biosorption of Fe (II), Mn (II), and Zn (II) ions, from aqueous solution with free
(non-immobilised) and Ca-alginate beads with immobilised Chlorella vulgaris biomass was …

The biosorption of the heavy metals Cu2+ and Zn2+ by dried marine green macroalga
(Chaetomorpha linum) was investigated. The biosorption capacities of the dried alga for …

Red alga Gracilaria corticata biosorbent was evaluated as a new biosorbent of heavy metals
from aqouse samples. On contacting copper, lead, zinc and cadmium solutions with red alga …

Biosorption is the most favourable technique for the treatment of heavy metals as it is fast,
powerful, and low cost, it takes place in a wide range of temperatures as well as it can be …

Pollution by heavy metal ions is one of the major environmental problems in many countries.
In this study, four different species of dried marine macroalgae, Ulva lactuca, Jania rubens …

Contamination of water sources with inorganic pollutants (cations or anions) is still a serious
environmental problem, for which solutions are still being sought. Therefore, finding a …
