Effects of rhamnolipid on the adsorption of Pb2+ onto compost humic acid
Abstract
Biosurfactants can be applied to improve the micro-environment and efficiency of composting, but their biosurfactant effects on the adsorption of heavy metals and humic acid (HA) remain undefined. This study aims to deal with the effects of biosurfactant rhamnolipid (RL) on the adsorption of Pb2+ onto compost HA at various concentrations, temperatures, and pH values. Adding RL solution influenced the adsorption of Pb2+ onto compost HA without …
