Biosorption of metals by a waste biomass

Mattuschka, Beate, Straube, Gunhild·1993·Journal of Chemical Technology & Biotechnology

Abstract

The binding of several metals by waste biomass of Streptomyces noursei was investigated. With respect to the binding capacity, the following order was observed: Ag > Cr > Pb > Cu > Zn > Cd > Co > =Ni. The sorption of metal ions increased with the increasing initial concentration of metal. The adsorption equilibrium of copper, lead and chromium sorption, and silver sorption at low concentration can be described by the Freundlich and Langmuir models. The possibilities for desorbing the metals from loaded biomass and the repeated use of biomass were investigated. The influence of various ions in water on metal sorption was tested. The metal capacity and selectivity of metal binding by biomass are important qualities for practical use.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
