Toxic cadmium removal from water effluents by Rhizobium sp. (BJVr-12) extracellular polysaccaharides (EPS)
Cadmium is one of the "big three" toxic metals (mercury, lead, and cadmium) well recognized for their deleterious effects on the environment. The capacity of coconut husk-immobilized Rhizobium sp. (BJVr-12) cells to adsorb Cd sup 2+ from aqueous solutions was studied. A maximum of 98.7 per...
