Background Underwater gliders are widely used in marine applications for monitoring purposes.These gliders must withstand hydrodynamic forces and maintain its body stability.The underwater environments are highly unpredictable, and small changes in the environment can lead to significant instability in underwater vehicles.Methods This study uses di
Three strains of thermotolerant polymer-producing bacteria; Bacillus subtilis WD 90, Bacillus subtilis SM 29, and Enterobacter agglomerans SM 38 as well as their biofloculants were used to investigate on the adsorption of heavy metal, nickel and cadmium.The effects of pH and concentrations of heavy metal were investigated.The optimum pH for nickel
