Many natural biosorbents have been investigated for having low cost and submit binding properties, as is the case of marine marcoalgae Sargassum filipendula (S. filipendula) that has been used biosorbent material in the processes of biosorption of heavy metals. In the present study the brown seaweed has been used to study conducted in bach mode, where it was determined the optimum pH for biosorption of vanadium, the solid/liquid ratio ideal and the importance of speed of agitation. The kinetic and equilibrium study of metal ions were also performed in batches in the following test conditions: (1) 0.10 g of biomass, 25.0 mL of vanadium solution equal to 18.0 mg L-1, temperature 303 K and 150 rpm agitation. (2) 0.10 g of biomass, 25.0 mL of vanadium solution equal to 36.0 mg L-1, temperature 303 K and 150 rpm agitation. The optimum conditions for biosorption of vanadium was found to 36.0 mg L-1, pH 2,0. The kinetic study of vanadium biosorption showed that the second order model best describes the experimental data 36.0 mg L-1, (R2 = 0.9825). The balance study showed an increased uptake profile of vanadium. The best collection efficiency of vanadium ion was 46.0 % for Co = 36.0 mg L-1 at pH 2.0. The experimental isotherm data of vanadium were more suitable for the Langmuir model at pH 2.0. The equilibrium parameters calculated from the Langmuir model (b, qmax ) were 0.009 e 43.3 mg/g respectively, to better corroboration to interpretation of results when compared with the Freundlich model (kF, n) 1,56 e 2,41, whereas the correlation coefficient is higher for Langmuir
