It was investigated the potential of Rhodococcus erythropolis AW3 as a biosorbent for the removal of crystal violet (CV) dye from natural water and real effluents. The biosorbent was characterized by flow cytometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy X-ray dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and point of zero charge (pHZPC). Batch biosorption experiments were performed to optimize different parameters involved in the biosorption process. The equilibrium was reached at 90 min at the optimum biosorbent dose of 0.50 g L⁻¹ and pH of 9.0. Results indicated that Langmuir isotherm model was the most suitable to represent the experimental data, and the highest biosorption capacity was 289.8 mg g⁻¹. Kinetic data were well fitted with the pseudo-second-order model. The thermodynamic study showed that the process was favorable, exothermic, and associated with an increase of entropy. Finally, it was demonstrated that the biosorption process using Rhodococcus erythropolis AW3 could be successfully applied to remove CV from natural water and effluents derived from clinical and industrial activities.
