Removal of metal ions from a petrochemical wastewater using brown macro-algae as natural cation-exchangers

Four brown macro-algae, Ascophyllum nodosum, Fucus spiralis, Laminaria hyperborea and Pelvetia canaliculata, were investigated as natural cation exchangers for the removal of transition metals from a petrochemical wastewater. The wastewater presents a high conductivity due to chloride, sulfate, sodi...
