Abstract

The production of antibiotics in Algeria generates huge quantities of biomass that should be considered as a valuable biosorbent. This work is a contribution to the valorization of this biomass for the removal of hexavalent chromium Cr(VI). Therefore, the biosorption by Pleurotus mutilus biomass was studied in batch. Optimal conditions were determined by varying the initial Cr(VI) concentration and contact time. The maximum uptake capacity was found to be 15 mg/g of Cr(VI) at 50 mg/L of Cr(VI) initial concentration and biomass dose of 2 g/L. Equilibrium isotherm data was best described by the Langmuir model than Freundlich. The biosorption kinetics of Cr(VI) removal using pleurotus mutilus was better described by the pseudo-first-order. Globally, this work demonstrates that Pleurotus mutilus was a good biosorbent for hexavalent chromium treatment in contaminated water.
