Tolerance of Chemoorganotrophic Bioleaching Microorganisms to Heavy Metal and Alkaline Stresses
The bioleaching potential of the bacterium Bacillus mucilaginosus and the fungus Aspergillus niger towards industrial residues was investigated by assessing their response towards various heavy metals (including arsenic, cadmium, cobalt, chromium, nickel, lead, and zinc) and elevated pH. The plate diffusion method was performed for each metal to determine the toxicity effect. Liquid batch cultu...
متن کاملGreen Synthesis of Metal nanoparticles by microorganisms; a current prospective
Synthesis and applications of nanomaterials has been an interesting area of nanotechnology since last decade. Several physico-chemical methods have been used to synthesize the nanoparticles of noble metals. Numerous other methodologies are also in practice including the laser ablation, aerosol technologies, lithography, and ultraviolet irradiation. However, traditional methods are less preferr...
متن کاملSolubilization of iron-containing minerals by soil microorganisms.
Eighty-eight strains of microorganisms were isolated from soils collected in northern and southern Chile, and 10 fungi which showed the highest solubilizing action upon the iron in granodiorite were then selected. These fungi were incubated with the following iron-containing minerals: augite, hornblende, biotite, magnetite, hematite, and the igneous rock granodiorite. The solubility of iron in ...
متن کاملEffect of substrate concentration on bioleaching of metal-contaminated sediment.
The remediation of metal-contaminated sediment was studied using the bioleaching process with a mixed culture of sulfur-oxidizing bacteria. The effects of substrate concentration (elemental sulfur) on sediment acidification, sulfur oxidation and metal solubilization from contaminated sediment during the bioleaching process were investigated with free-cell suspensions. Sulfur concentration great...
متن کاملMetal solubilization from metal-containing solid materials by cyanogenic Chromobacterium violaceum.
Different cyanogenic bacterial strains (Chromobacterium violaceum, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Bacillus megaterium) were cultivated under cyanide-forming conditions in the presence of metal-containing solids such as nickel powder or electronic scrap. All microorganisms were able to form water-soluble metal cyanides, however, with different efficiencies. C. violaceum was able to mobilize nickel as ...
