Heavy Metal Contaminants Removal from Wastewater Using the Potential Filamentous Fungi
Biomass: A Review Page 1 Volume 7(6): 384-393 (2015) - 384 J Microb Biochem Technol …

Reactions involved in the sorption of heavy metal cations and anions to the surfaces of
inorganic and organic components of solid wastes are examined. The properties of various …

Biosorption is potentially an attractive technology for treatment of wastewater for retaining
heavy metals from dilute solutions. This study investigated the feasibility of anaerobic …

This work focuses on Cr (VI), Cu (II) sorption kinetics by chitin, a naturally occurring material,
chitosan, the deacetylated form of chitin, and Rhizopus arrhizus, a filamentous fungus …

Trametes versicolor mycelia were immobilized in carboxymethylcellulose, CMC, beads via
entrapment, and the bead containing immobilized fungus spores were incubated at 30° C for …

This paper investigates the ability of peanut hulls and peanut hull pellets to adsorb copper
from dilute aqueous metal ion solutions in batch and fixed bed systems. The kinetics of …

Experiments were carried out to evaluate the batch adsorption of COD from petroleum
refinery wastewater on a locally prepared date-pit activated carbon (DP-AC), and its …

A strain of Trichoderma atroviride, isolated from sewage sludge obtained from a water
treatment plant located in Madrid (Spain), has been studied for tolerance to heavy metals …

Biological methods for wastewater treatment are becoming more accepted all over the
world. The method, which makes use of accumulating abilities of living cells, is called …
