Bio-sorption of Pb2+ ion from wastewater with Chlorella was investigated in the batch mode. The influence of pH of the solution, biosorbents dose, concentration of ions and contact time on bio-sorption capacity of Pb2+ ions was studied. The studies revealed that Pb2+ ions uptake rate was rather slow, with 75% of the total amount occurring in the first 10min for Chlorella. The optimum pH for bio-sorption...
The removal of ammonia from aqueous solutions using zeolites (ZFAs) synthesized from coal fly ash (CFA) as low-cost absorbent was investigated in a batch mode. When raw CFA was subjected to alkaline hydrothermal zeolite synthesis, the Zeolite X (ZFA-X) and zeolite A (ZFA-A) were formed. ZFAs had a much greater ability than CFA to remove ammonia. The pH strongly influenced ammonia removal by ZFAs....
