INTRODUCTION
The use of micro-organisms in the dissolution of metals bearing minerals and the removal of some anions e.g. phosphates and ammonia is well known e.g. sulphur oxidisers Acidithiobacillus spp, Leptospirillum spp and Sulpholobus spp. (Acharya,1990) (Momba, 2005).
However, not much has been done on the use of microorganisms in the removal of leached metals from their aqueous solutions. E.g. Fixation of Ni and Fe by Pseudonomonas species through biosorption (Danalkova et al,2005).
In this study copper and cobalt are being removed from hydrometallurgical solutions using microorganisms

The use of biological methods for heavy metal recovery have gained considerable momentum due to their high efficiency, low operating costs and simplicity.

CULTURING AND IDENTIFICATION
Soil samples were suspended in distilled water, vortexed (thoroughly mixed).
oBoth the water and soil samples supernatant were diluted in a sterile phosphate buffer and there after inoculated in Pseudomonas agar base.
oThe isolation of bacteria using Pseudomonas agar base yielded positive results meaning that there blue-green colonies of Pseudomonas spp were observed.

Synthetic solutions
Solutions of different concentrations (0.07M, 0.33M and 0.66M) were prepared using copper and cobalt sulphate.
Batch scale experiments to test the effects of
Contact time, concentration, pH, temperature, co-ions, biomass concentration were conducted.

Metal recovery
Bacteria : water (3:1) ratio Bacteria were inoculated into synthetic
solutions water samples and recovery was allowed to take place over a period of 24 h in a shaking incubator (150 rpm) at 36.5°C.
Metal concentrations were analysed using AAS and ICP.
Control experiments were conducted to monitor parameters like precipitation.
The same procedure was repeated for hydrometallurgical solutions which had lower metal concentrations.

Results & discussions
Contact time and temperature had an almost similar effect on the rate of biosorption. Increased up to a certain level then decreased.

Freundlich equation model
The Freundlich equation gave a plot with higher correlation as compared to the Langmuir equation. The Freundlich gave an R2 value of 0.9622 whereas the Langmuir had an R2 value of 0.8615. Therefore the Fruendlich plot is favoured over the Langmuir.
R2=0.9622

Conclusions
Pseudomonas spp reclaim both copper and cobalt from their sulphate synthetic solutions .
It tends to remove or extract more metal ions at low concentrations and the ratio of bacteria population to solution volume being 3:1 works best.
The maximum uptake of both copper and cobalt occurred at a pH of 6.5 beyond which the adsorption rates decreased.
The bacteria have successfully removed up to 45 % of copper from 0.07M and up 40 % from 0.07M cobalt from cobalt sulphate solutions and 73 % and 65 % of copper and cobalt respectively from mine water samples.
