Biosorption of Hg (II) from aqueous solution using algal biomass: kinetics and isotherm studies

The present work investigated the ability of algal biomass Chlorella vulgaris to remove mercury from aqueous solutions. The mercury biosorption process was studied through batch experiments 35 °C temperature with regard to the influence of contact time, initial mercury concentration, pH and desorpti...
