Using optimized culture conditions, a flocculating activity of 70.3 % at a bioflocculation concentration of 0.3 mg/L at pH 7 with Ca 2+ as the cation and 88.9 % in 1.2 mg/L of bioflocculant concentration for Al 3+ as the cation was obtained for bacteria that were incubated at temperature of 40 °C for 2-day incubation period. It was found to be effective for flocculation of a kaolin suspension over weakly acidic pH (6-8); divalent and trivalent (Ca 2+ and Al 3+) enhanced the flocculating activity. This bioflocculant possesses a good flocculating activity, which can be promoted by the addition of trivalent and bivalent cations in kaolin suspension. 2014-02-21T03:42:37Z 2014-02-21T03:42:37Z 2012-09 Article Water, Air, and Soil Pollution, vol. 223(7), 2012, pages 3775-3781 0049-6979 http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs11270-012-1147-z http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/32076 en Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
