Method for the recovery of Cr and Co species from effluents using agricultural adsorbent – immobilized <i>E. coli</i>, <i>S. aureus</i> and <i>S. typhi</i> isolates and FAAS detection
Abstract:Microbial chromium and cobalt reduction was investigated for application in their recovery from industrial wastewater using flame atomic absorption technique. This paper presents the development of a routine method for the recovery of Cr and Co species in microbial-treated industrial wastewater using agricultural adsorbents and silica gel. E. coli, S. typhi and S. aureus were used in reducing these heavy metals. Results indicate that the palm kernel shell charcoal exhibited a good recovery capacity in the pres… Show more
