“…So generally it can be seen that the sorption capacity was steady or Decreased with biomass concentration. With further increase in biosorbent dose beyond the optimum level the removal efficiency of metal ions remained almost constant, this may be due to the reaching of equilibrium state at given experimental conditions [8]. It was also because to the screening effect between cells.…”

“…Rapid process of biosorption also initially could be attributed to the availability of more free surface active sites and involvement of mechanisms like ionexchange or physical biosorption at the FMB surface [20]. Once these sites are blocked, the intra-particle diffusion of biosorbate takes place which might be responsible for the slower biosorption process at the later stage [8,13]. …”

“…Modification of biosorbent by metal impregnation (Talreja et al 2014) and acid treatment ) improves the percentage removal of pollutants (Kuo and Bembenek 2008;FonsecaCorrea et al 2013;Owlad et al 2010;Cronje et al 2011). Chromium is found in the environment predominantly in two forms Cr(III) and Cr(VI) out of which Cr(VI) is most mutagenic and carcinogenic to the living organism (Acar and Malkoc 2004;Baral et al 2009). Chromium sulfate [Cr(III)] is used as a tanning agent which can be converted to Cr(VI) and causes severe contamination of ground water (El-Sherif et al 2013).…”
