Description ix, 160 leaves : illustrations ; 30 cm Summary Biosolids were used to remove zinc, manganese and cyanide from mining wastewaters. The effect of aqueous parameters and reaction variables on contaminant biosorption was quantified. The mechanism of removal was adsorption onto amine and carboxyl functional groups. Immobilisation was investigated to overcome problems of swelling and disintegration of the biosolids Notes Submitted to the School of Engineering and Technology of the Faculty of Science and Technology, Deakin University Thesis (Ph.D.)--Deakin University, Victoria, 2004 Bibliography Bibliography: leaves 155-160 Subject Mine water.
