Biosorption of Zinc on Immobilized Green Algae: Equilibrium and Dynamics Studies

The efficacy of using blank alginate beads and immobilized dead algal cells for the removal of zinc ions from aqueous solutions was investigated. It was found that the sorption capacities were significantly affected by solution pH; with higher pH favoring higher zinc ion uptake. Dynamics and isother...
