| Abstract | Present study deals with the biosorption of metal ions (Cu$^{2+}$, Zn$^{2+}$, Pb$^{2+}$, and Cd$^{2+}$) from aqueous solutions as well as from wastewater using Fenton modified Hydrilla verticillata dried biomass. Fenton modification process was optimized by varying different parameters such as pH, temperature, contact time, and Fe$^{2+}$/H$_{2}$O$_{2}$ ratio. The modified biosorbent was characterized by using scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and Malvern particle size analyzer. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis revealed the enhancement in weight percent of Cu$^{2+}$ (47.53 %), Zn$^{2+}$ (41.82 %), Pb$^{2+}$ (43.76 %), and Cd$^{2+}$ (43.15 %) ions on the surface of modified biosorbent after the biosorption process. The experimental data obtained from the batch study were modeled using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. Experimental data showed best fitting to Freundlich isotherm model. The increase in biosorption capacity after the Fenton modification was observed, which follows the sequence: Cu$^{2+}$ > Pb$^{2+}$ > Cd$^{2+}$ > Zn$^{2+}$. The biosorption process followed the pseudo-second-order kinetics, suggesting that the chemisorption may be the rate-limiting step in this study. The thermodynamic study revealed that the biosorption process was spontaneous and exothermic in nature. The biosorption capacity for multi-metal solution was found to be relatively lower than the single-metal solution. Performance of batch reactor in treating wastewater showed significant increase in removal efficiency of Cu$^{2+}$ (from 74 to 96 %), Zn$^{2+}$ (from 67 to 84 %), Pb$^{2+}$ (from 71 to 92 %), and Cd$^{2+}$ (from 71 to 89 %) ions after the modification of biosorbent as compared to raw biomass. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
