“…This mode of metal capture is referred to as active uptake (Kapoor et al, 1999). If one considers that nonviable biomass is not biologically active, its metal uptake can be regarded as a passive adsorption process and, thus, be correlated with mathematical sorption models as the Langmuir and Freundlich equations (Cruz et al, 2004). Furthermore the bacterial surfaces contain polarizable groups (sites) such as phosphate, carboxyl, hydroxyl and amino groups, which are capable of interacting with cations.…”

“…The pseudo-first-order Lagergren model [12] considers that the occupation rate of adsorption sites is proportional to the number of unoccupied sites [13]: t k e ads 1, e 1 q q (1) where q (mg g -1 ) is the amount of metal ion adsorbed at any given time t (min), q e (mg g -1 ) is the amount of metal ion adsorbed at equilibrium and k 1,ad (min -1 ) is the Lagergren rate constant.…”

“…These results confirmed the paramount role of electrostatic attractions in the ratelimiting step. Sorption process is chemisorption in nature (Gupta et al 1998;Cruz et al 2004;Gupta et al 2004). …”
