Biosorption of Mercury Ion (Hg2+) using Live and Dead Cells of Rhizopus oryzae and Aspergillus niger : Characterization, Kinetic and Isotherm Studies

Mercury ions (Hg2+) are usually being discharged into water bodies without proper treatment. It is toxic, non-biodegradable and persistent naturally which leads to serious environmental problems. Through microbial approach, this study compares the efficiency of two types of fungi: R. oryzae and A. n...
