Abstract
Methods of physical and chemical adsorption of heavy metals, has some disadvantages such as high cost and are ineffective at low concentrations. Methods for biological uptake of heavy metals in recent decades were considered. Among the biological adsorbent include: bacteria, fungi and alga, algae have the highest efficiency of metal uptake. This study determined that the main role in the uptake of metals, nickel (II) and cadmium (II) Alginic acid is responsible. Focus serratus brown alga, as adsorbent in this study used a cost-effective biological and biological uptake of cadmium and nickel ions simultaneously in a batch reactor has been studied. Surface structure of algae has been studied. Adsorption kinetics have been studied, the equilibrium time is about 300 minutes, the Langmuir adsorption isotherm using the equation can be interpreted as the maximum adsorption of about 0/85and 0/95mmol/g are, respectively, for cadmium(II) and nickel(II).
