Fundamental behavior for biosorption of divalence cations by pleurotus mushroom spent-substrate
Biosorption behavior of Pleurotus mushroom spent-substrate was studied using two divalence cations: Ni(II) and Cu(II). Biosorption of both cations showed similar behavior on the effect of pH, initial concentration, temperature and contact time. Optimum biosorption was found to be between pH of 5-6,...
