Biosorption of heavy metal by thermotolerant polymerproducing bacterial cells and the bioflocculant
Three strains of thermotolerant polymer-producing bacteria; Bacillus subtilis WD 90, Bacillus subtilis SM 29, and Enterobacter agglomerans SM 38 as well as their biofloculants were used to investigate on the adsorption of heavy metal, nickel and cadmium.The effects of pH and concentrations of heavy metal were investigated.The optimum pH for nickel
