Application of Bioremediation on Solid Waste Management: A Review

Biosorption of arsenic (III) and (V) from aqueous solutions by living and dried biomass of fresh water microalgae was investigated. A total of five microalgae namely Chlorella, Oscillatioria, Scenedesmus, Spirogyra and Pandorina were identified as arsenic tolerant and used for further studies. Varying conditions of pH, temperature, biomass and contact time were studied for As (III) and As (V) adsorption properties of living and dried biomass of...
