- W2181880312 abstract "Industrial effluents are the major sources of copper in the environment. It is important to regulate copper levels in water because excess amounts of copper in the human body is associated with adverse health effect such as liver and kidney damage, anemia, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's disease. Conventional copper removal methods are not environmentally friendly due to the increased level of chemical sludge, energy input, and nutrient requirements from the removal processes, and expensive due to the implementation of large infrastructure. Biosorption is a better alternative to conventional copper removal methods. Studies have shown that using fish scales as a biosorbent was effective in absorbing lead, chromium and arsenic in water. In this study, fish scales of Tilapia nilotica Linnaeus were used as a biosorbent in the investigation of copper sorption capabilities under different biosorbent to copper mass ratios and contact times. With the use of a biosorbent to copper mass ratio of 13.5, 33.988% (SE=1.008%) of the copper was removed after two hours. After eight days, 97.2% (SE=0.235%) of the copper was removed with the application of a biosorbent to copper ratio of 10.0. Larger amounts of biosorbent added and longer contact times yielded higher sorption percentage" @default.
