This study reports on acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) biosorption onto fungal-bacterial biofilm supported on two types of activated carbons (one commercial type made of coconut fibers, CAC, and one other manufactured from fruit rinds of Hymenaea stigonocarpa Mart., HYAC, which after biofilm inoculation, they were named CAC-b and HYAC-b), via batch and fixed-bed experiments. These materials were characterized by BET Specific Surface Area and Scanning Electronic Microscopy (SEM).

This study addressed the removal performance of RR2 from aqueous solutions in adsorption columns experiments by comparing the potential of activated carbon alone (ACA) and microbially inoculated (MIAC), prepared from barks of a largely available tree in Brazilian Cerrado biome, Hymenaea courbaril L. or "Jatobá," presenting the kinetics, isotherms, breakthrough curves, and dissolved organic carbon removal. ACA presented strong interaction to RR2 dye, evidenced at the first 20 min when absorbance already attained 66.
