Removal of Heavy Metal Ions Using the Fungus
The potential use of the fungus Penicillium canescens for the removal of cadmium, lead, mercury and arsenic ions from aqueous solutions was evaluated in this study. Equilibrium biosorption of the heavy metal ions was attained in 4 h. The binding of heavy metal ions to P. canescens was clearly pH-dep...
