Microbial extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are potential biosorbents for metal remediation and recovery. The Langmuir and Freundlich kinetics of Mn(II) binding by the EPS from a novel Mn(II) oxidising strain of Rhizobium etli were determined. Maximum manganese specific adsorptions (q(max)) decreased in the sequence: sulphate (62 mg Mn per g EPS) > nitrate (53 mg g(-1)) > chloride (21 mg g(-1)). Consideration of the anion during kinetic studies is usually neglected but is important in providing more practical and comparable data between different biosorbent systems.
