Adsorption of Cd (II), Cu (II), Ni (II), and Zn (II) from aqueous solutions on anaerobically digested sludge has been investigated. Experimental data has been fit to Langmuir, Freundlich, and Redlich-Peterson isotherms to obtain the characteristic parameters of each model. Based on the maximum adsor

β¦ Synopsis
The effect of different concentrations of copper or zinc on the anaerobic biodegradability of sludge has been investigated. An attempt has been made to correlate the metal forms with the performance of the digester. The presence of organically-bound copper is indicative of the deteriorated condition of the digester. However, an increased HNO, extractable fraction is associated with the failure of the zinc-spiked digesters.
