Abstract

BACKGROUND: This paper evaluates the biosorption of Reactive Orange 122 dye (RO 122) by dried Penicillium restrictum cells. The aim was to determine the pH, contact time, temperature and dye concentration for the applicability of biomass as an alternative biosorbent for the removal of RO 122.
