Abstract
The simultaneous biosorption of chromium (VI), copper (II), iron (II), and nickel (II) was investigated by alkaline-modified Chlorella vulgaris and Spirulina platensis in binary systems. The alkaline modified biosorbents were CV-KCl, SP-KCl, CV-Na2CO3, and SP-Na2CO3. The maximum removal efficiency recorded in this study was 99.7% with a biosorbent dosage of 0.3 g within a pH range of 2 to 6. The highest biosorption capacities obtained were 14.1, 13.5, 21.6, and 15.8 mg/g for Cr (VI), Cu (II), Fe (II), and Ni (II), respectively. The pseudo-second-order best described the biosorption rate, while the Langmuir isotherm model best described the biosorption equilibrium interaction. The values for Gibbs free energy (ΔG°) were in the range of 0.5 to 6.5 kJ/mol (Cr-Fe), 1.3 to 8.4 kJ/mol (Cr-Ni), and 3.9 to 11.3 kJ/mol (Cr-Cu) binary systems. This showed that the biosorption processes were characterized by physisorption reactions. The Temkin constant B values were in the range of 0.339 to 1.485 kcal/mol and the biosorption processes were largely exothermic reactions. The values for the Freundlich constant KF were between 1.4 and 10.4 (L/g), which indicated favourable biosorption. The Temkin isotherm model confirmed a strong binding affinity for Fe (II) and Ni (II). The results suggest that potassium chloride and sodium carbonate modification are very suitable for green algae and cyanobacteria for the efficient removal of heavy metals.

Abstract
Present study is based on application of live yeast Yarrowia lipolytica 70562 as new biosorbent was investigated for the simultaneous biosorption of Crystal Violet (CV) and Brilliant Green (BG) from wastewater. The effect of operating parameters such as initial dye concentrations (6-14mgL-1), solution pH (4.0-8.0) and contact time (4-20h) was investigated by response surface methodology (RSM) for modeling and optimization of biosorption process and accordingly the best operational conditions was set as: initial CV and BG concentration of 8.0, and 10mgL-1, pH of 7.0 and contact time of 16h. Above specified conditions lead to achievement of maximum biosorption of 98.823% and 99.927% for CV and BG dyes, respectively. The experimental equilibrium data well explained according to Langmuir isotherm model with maximum biosorption capacity of 65.359 and 56.497mgg-1 for BG and CV, respectively. The second order and intraparticle diffusion models as cooperative mechanism has high efficiency and performance for interpretation of real data.
