Abstract: | Summary Biosorption of zinc by sludge micro-organisms obtained from different steps of a conventional SWT plant has been studied. The best types of activated sludge for the process were found to be thickened, anaerobic and dewatered sludge giving up to 90–98% of metal elimination when working at initial zinc concentration lower than 50 mg/l. A relationship between pH and conditional stability constant has been found. |
