“…Adsorption isotherms are mathematical models which explain the behavior of adsorption species between liquid and solid phases. Langmuir isotherm model and Freundlich isotherm model are two important and commonly used isotherm models [15]. The desorption process which concentrates the metal ions that are previously adsorbed by biosorbent is also important for possible reuse of biosorbent and recovery of metal ions.…”

Heavy metal pollution in the aquatic water bodies via the discharge of various toxic heavy metals from industrial effluents has been a major concern in the present era. Various physical and chemical processes are available to solve this problem of heavy metal pollution. Biosorption is considered as a potential alternative for the removal of heavy metals from waste waters as compared to other conventional processes. In the present work, biosorption of Cu(II), Cr(VI), Pb(II) and Zn(II) ions from aqueous solutions was carried out by using peels of Citrus aurantifolia. The peels were found to be efficient in the biosorption of all four metal ions under study. The biosorption process was found to be influenced by factors like contact time, temperature, pH, turbidity as well as biosorbent dose. Further, the change in characteristics of Citrus aurantifolia after biosorption process was studied by using E-SEM, EDAX and FT-IR analysis. The adsorption isotherm studies revealed that Freundlich isotherm model showed better fir to experimental data as compared to Langmuir isotherm model. The results were found to be significant statistically. The regeneration of biosorbent was carried out by desorption study by using certain eluents.
