Batch studies of hexavalent chromium biosorption from mining wastewater using Aspergillus niger

The effects of selected process parameters in the biosorption of chromium (VI) ions for wastewater treatment using Aspergillus niger were studied whilst keeping temperature and pH constant. The biosorption capacity was observed to be optimum at 15 h contact time, 2.8 g biomass dose and 200 rpm agita...
