Summary: | This scientific research is determined to a study of sorption process of heavy metal ions removal from aqueous solution at water purification with a help of sorption materials on a basis of residual biomass of microalgae and duckweed. It is known that Chlorella sorokiniana and duckweed Lemna minor have in their composition different valuable substances such as lipids, proteins, pigments, pectic substances. After their extraction residual biomass is formed. And in present study it is proposed for using as biosorbent for water purification. At different pH values the removal of ions of heavy metals (Zn(II), Cd(II), Pb(II), Cu(II)) occurs with varied efficiency; it is an important and informative parameter. Equilibrium and initial concentration of the solution with heavy metal ions were measured by voltammetric method of analysis with a use of special equipment. Chitosan was used as a component for making composite sorption materials with residual biomass of microalgae and duckweed. It is biopolymer which widely used in water purification. Due to this, prepared granules have good sorption properties. Nowadays in the era of technology and wide industrial production it is important and actual to develop new ecological technology and useful materials for water treatment and other fields for environment protection in general.
