Asterococcus superbus as a biosorbent of copper, zinc, cadmium and lead: Adsorption isotherm and kinetic modelling
The adsorption capacity of copper, zinc, cadmium and lead by Asterococcus superbus, a freshwater microalgae, was studied in batch mode. The Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich models were applied and results demonstrate that for all cases the Langmuir model best describes the adsor...
