This work deals with heavy metal removal from industrial effluents in order to reduce their negative impact on the environment. The biosorption capability for lead and chrome by different microorganisms was evaluated using batch system for synthetic heavy metal containing water and real wastewater effluents. In the synthetic heavy metal containing batch, different concentrations of lead (50, 100, 500 ppm) or chrome (100, 500, 1000 ppm) were used to screen for microorganisms that have the efficient biosorption capability for each heavy metal
