Article Synopsis
  • The research explores the effectiveness of algae and algae-bacteria partnerships in removing the dye Remazol Red 5B from wastewater, achieving impressive removal rates of around 75-78% within 40 minutes.
  • The study finds that the interaction between the dye and the biosorbent, particularly in a composite system of algae and bacteria, fits well with the Temkin model and indicates high biosorption capacity through the Langmuir model.
  • Machine learning models, particularly the Random Forest, are utilized to predict dye removal efficiency, showcasing strong predictive power and suggesting further investigation into hybrid methods for improved wastewater treatment solutions.
