Maspion, Waru - Sidoarjo. This waste if discharged into the environment will accumulate and damage either directly or indirectly to human beings in particular. Directly, the accumulation of heavy metals in the human body can occur through contaminated water systems for domestic purposes - day, while indirectly through the food chain, such as vegetables, fish or animals that have been contaminated with heavy metals. The purpose of this study was to Taking Cd concentration in the electroplating industry wastewater using bacteria Pseudomonas fluorescens and seek the best capabilities of bacteria, so that industrial waste is dumped is not harmful to the environment and in accordance with standard quality. Provision can be made with the metal cadmium bioremoval process, which is a biological process - which involves the physics of bacteria to eliminate the pollutant. The process that occurs can be done in facultative and use of Pseudomonas fluorescens that can produce compounds with low molecular weight ligands known as penjerap so siderophor Cd metal will stick to the surface of the bacteria or precipitated. Variables used in this research is the metal concentration (mg / l) and processing time (hour), while the parameters used are acid pH of between 4.0 - 4.5, and temperature according to room temperature. The method used in analyzing the UV method - Spektrofometer with precision below 10 -6. From this research gained elimination percentage cadmium left on 60 minutes with concentration 135 mg/l about 99,97 % with using bacteria Pseudomonas fluorescense.} }
