Lead(II) and Iron(II) removal from aqueous solution : biosorption by a bacterial biofilm supported on granular activated carbon

A biofilm of Arthrobacter viscosus supported on granular activated carbon (GAC) removed between 100% and 50% of Pb (II) and between 100% and 30% of Fe (II) from solution with initial concentration between 8-85 mgPb 1ˉ¹ and 2.5-42 mgFe 1ˉ¹ and a flow residence time of 1.2 min. The maximum uptake capa...
