Cadmium biological treatment with Saccharomyces bloulardii

Abstract

The bio removal process was carried out using Saccharomyces bloulardii and cadmium at concentrations (0.1,0.2,0.3 mg/ml) at temperature of 37°C and PH7 for a period (24,48,72 hours). The results showed that the highest of cadmium removal at concentration of 0.1 mg/ml. Also, it has been study of effect of incubation period on removing heavy element ions and it was found that the best period was72 hours compared to48 and 24 hours.
