Biosorption of Silver Ions by Biomass: Equilibrium, Kinetics and Thermodynamics
The freeze-dried biomass of Paecilomyces lilacinus was employed as a biosorbent for the removal of silver ions from aqueous solution. The effects of factors such as the solution pH, the initial Ag(I) ion concentration, contact time and temperature were examined. Maximum Ag(I) adsorption was obtained...
