Bioadsorcion de Plomo (HECHO)
Bioadsorcion de Plomo (HECHO)
and K
and K
) do not signi-
cantly interfere with the binding of heavy metal ions.
The biosorbent appears to be well suited for treatment
of dilute waste streams, where extremely low levels of
euent standards are to be met. The biosorbent can be
used in packed bed operations and current facilities used
for adsorption and ion exchange process can be utilised
for its applications.
