Biosorption of Aqueous Pb(II) by a Metabolically Inactive Battery Recycling Plant Consortium: the Role of Paraclostridium Bifermentans Microbial Strain
A microbial consortium which was obtained from lead contaminated soil at a battery recycling plant in South Africa has been demonstrated to remove 90 % of Pb(II) from an 80 mg/L solution over a period of 7 days. The consortium was effective at precipitating Pb(II) from solution and was shown to remo...
