A comparative study of various biosorbents for removal of chromium(VI) ions from industrial waste waters
Abstract
Abstract Chromium(VI) biosorption to non-living biomass of Chlorella vulgaris, Clodophara crispata, Zoogloea ramigera, Rhizopus arrhizus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae was investigated. The initial pH of the metal ion solution effected metal uptake capacity of the biomass and the optimum initial pH was found as 1·–2·0 for all microorganisms. Maximum adsorption rates of metal ions to microbial biomass were obtained at temperatures in the range 25–35°C. The adsorption rate increased with increasing metal ion concentration for C. vulgaris, C. crispata, R. Arrhizus, S. cerevisiae and Z. ramigera up to 200, 200, 125, 100 and 75 mg/litre, respectively. Freundlich constants were determined from the Freundlich adsorption isotherms of all microorganisms.

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.
