Biosorption process is considered as economical treatment to remove metal from the aqueous solution compared to other established methods. In this study, Saccharomyces cerevisiae was used as biosorbent and subject to immobilization process which consists of ethanol treatment for the removal of binary metals, lead (II) and nickel (II) from aqueous solution. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize effective parameters condition and the interaction of two or more parameters in order to obtain high removal of the binary metals. The parameters that have been studied were initial concentration of binary metals solution (10 - 60 mg/L), biosorbent dosage (0.2 - 1.0 g), pH (pH 2 - pH 6) and contact time (30 - 360 minutes) towards lead (II) and nickel (II) ions removal. Based on analysis of variance (ANOVA), biosorbent dosage, solution pH and contact time factor were found significant for both responses. Through optimization procedure, the optimum condition for lead (II) and nickel (II) ions removal were obtained at initial concentration of 10.0 mg/L, biosorbent dosage of 1.0 g, solution pH of pH 6, and contact time of 360.00 minutes, which resulted in 95.08 % and 21.09 % removal of lead (II) and nickel (II) ions respectively.

This study was aimed to investigate the response surface methodology (RSM) to evaluate the effects of various experimental conditions on the removal of levofloxacin (LVX) from the aqueous solution by means of electrocoagulation (EC) technique with stainless steel electrodes. The EC process was achieved successfully with the efficiency of LVX removal of 90%. The results obtained from the regression analysis, showed that the data of experiential are better fitted to the polynomial model of second-order with the predicted correlation coefficient (pred. R2) of 0.723, adjusted correlation coefficient (Adj. R2) of 0.907 and correlation coefficient values (R2) of 0.952. This shows that the predicted models and experimental values are in good agreement. The results of the kinetic study showed that the second-order kinetic model was in good agreement with the experimental results and suggested that the mechanism of chemisorption controlled the LVX adsorption. The experimental results indicated that the adsorption of LVX on iron hydroxide flocs follows Sips isotherm with the value of the correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.937. Sips isotherm shows that both homogenous and heterogeneous adsorption can occur.
