ABSTRACT
Water is an important natural resource for life and its chemical pollution is one of the most serious problems the current society is facing. Therefore, an environment-friendly method to reduce metal contaminants of aquatic ecosystems is required, and one potentially useful method for treatment of wastewater comprises the use of microbial biosorption. The objective of this work was to determine the effects of the main variables involved in cadmium and zinc removal by Pseudomonas mendocina (Ps-1) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc-10). Variables like pH, metal concentration, physiological age of the culture and state of the microbial biomass were assessed. The pH, metal concentration and the dead or inactive biomass had greater significant effect on the biosorption of cadmium and zinc by both microorganisms. The adjustment of the variables tested facilitated the increase of capture levels of the metal ions, which indicates that under the determined conditions P. mendocina (Ps-1) and S. cerevisiae (Sc-10) can be used in the decontamination of wastewater containing both heavy metals.
