Optimization of Cr(VI) biosorption onto Aspergillus niger using 3-level Box-Behnken design: Equilibrium, kinetic, thermodynamic and regeneration studies

Heavy metal biosorption is an efficient technology for the decontamination of metal from industrial waste water. The present study focused on exploration of Aspergillus niger towards removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. The influence of different experimental parameters—initial pH, adsorbent dos...
