Lead (Pb) is an element present in the environment that negatively affects all living
organisms. To diminish its high toxicity, micro-organisms have developed several …

Abstract Heavy metals (HMs) like Zn, Cu, Pb, Ni, Cd, and Hg, among others, play a role in
several environmental problems. The marine environment is polluted by several …

In this study, the biosorption of Pb (II) ions onto peanut shells from an aqueous solution was
studied in a batch system as a function of temperature, pH of the solution, contact time, initial …

The biosorption characteristics of Pb (II) and Cd (II) ions from aqueous solution using the
macrofungus (Amanita rubescens) biomass were investigated as a function of pH, biomass …

A process of competitive biosorption of Cr (VI) and Fe (III) ions on Streptococcus equisimilis,
Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Aspergillus niger is described and compared to single metal …

The equilibrium, thermodynamics and kinetics of the biosorption of Pb (II) and Cd (II) onto
(Lactarius scrobiculatus) macrofungus from aqueous solution were investigated at different …

Metals can be dispersed, both naturally and by man's activities, into any of the Earth's
elements-soil, water or air. Biological techniques for removing metal pollutants from soil, air …

Sorption capacity of oyster mushroom (Pleurotus platypus), button mushroom (Agaricus
bisporus) and milky mushroom (Calocybe indica) were evaluated on biosorption of heavy …

Biosorption of lead (II) onto Cephalosporium aphidicola was examined and the effects of pH,
contact time, biosorbent and lead (II) concentrations and temperature on biosorption were …

The optimum conditions for biosorption and bioaccumulation of lead and nickel were
investigated by using a tolerant bacterial strain isolated from El-Malah canal, Assiut, Egypt …
