Removal of Cd2+ metal ions from aqueous solutions by Na-alginate-containing composite biosorbent

This research is related to the effect of alginate-containing composite biosorbent on the sorption capacity of heavy metal Cd2+ ions. The study aims to determine the character and optimization of the sorption of Na-alginate-containing composite biosorbent on the sorption of heavy metal Cd2+ metal ions in an aqueous solution. The results suggested that composite biosorbent is suitable as a sorbent material for recovery and sorption of metal ions from aqueous solutions.
