Maximum sorption of Cu(II) and Pb(II) by dried filamentous green alga Pithophora oedogonia occurred at pH 4.5 and 5.0, respectively. Chemical pretreatment could not appreciably enhance the metal sorption ability of the biomass. HCl and EDTA desorbed 92-96% of the sorbed metal from the metal-loaded biomass. Sorption and desorption of both the test metals were very rapid attaining an equilibrium within 15 min. The time course data of both the processes fitted well to the pseudo-first and the pseudo-second-order Lagergren kinetic models with r(2) >= 0.979. The isotherm equilibrium of Cu(II) and Pb(II) followed the Redlich-Peterson and Sips model very well with r(2) >= 0.991. The sorption of Cu(II) and Pb(II) at varying biomass doses could be well defined by linear and hyperbolic decrease, respectively. The regenerated biomass of Pithophora has better reusability for Pb(II) than for Cu(II). A good mechanical strength of Pithophora biomass was apparent as only 10-15% loss of biomass occurred at the end of the fifth cycle. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
