Chironomids are keystone primary benthic consumers with semi‐aquatic life cycles. They support aquatic and terrestrial consumers at higher trophic levels by conveying dietary nutrients, such as fatty acids. In this study, we combined field sampling and laboratory experiments to examine the effects of environmental parameters, including diet, on fat...

This study focused on kinetics, equilibrium and thermodynamics of Acid Blue 25 (AB25) dye biosorption from aqueous solution using the shell of Penaeus indicus shrimp as a biosorbent. Optimum sorption conditions were identified by varying solution pH, biomass dosage, initial dye concentration, contact time, salinity and ionic strength. Equilibrium d...

The present study was conducted to optimize the various experimental conditions, such as biomass loading, initial C.I. Acid Blue 25 (AB25) dye concentration, and initial solution pH for biosorption of dye on raw and HCl-treated brown alga, Padina australis and red alga, Jania adhaerens. Biosorption process was optimized in a batch system under Box–...

Biosorption and bioaccumulation studies of acid orange 7 (AO7) dye by an aquatic plant, C. demersum, were investigated in the present work. The effects of different parameters such as, initial solution pH (2–11), initial dye concentration (30–90 mg/L), contact time (5–150 min), biomass dosage (1.8–23.4 g/L for living and 0.2–2.6 g/L for nonliving o...

The brown macroalga Stoechospermum marginatum was tested for its ability to remove the acid dyes Acid Blue 25 (AB25), Acid Orange 7 (AO7) and Acid Black 1 (AB1) from aqueous solution. Biosorption was investigated under different conditions of pH, biomass and initial dye concentrations, temperature, contact time and biosorbent particle size. The res...

The adsorption of acid orange II (AO7) dye from aqueous solution was examined onto untreated and chemically modified forms (treated with (i) propylamine, (ii) acidic methanol, (iii) formaldehyde and (iv) formic acid with formaldehyde) of brown alga, Stoechospermum marginatum. The adsorption was studied as a function of initial solution pH (2.0–10.0...
