Biosorption of Copper Ions by Marine Brown Alga Fucus vesiculosus
Copper is present in different types of industrial effluents, being responsible for environmental pollution. Biosorption of heavy metals can be an effective process for the removal and recovery of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions. The biomass of marine algae has been reported to have high uptake capacities for a number of heavy metal ions. In this paper, the adsorption properties of a pr...
متن کاملColumn biosorption of lanthanum and europium by Sargassum.
Batch and column biosorption of La(3+) (lanthanum) and Eu(3+) (europium) was studied using protonated Sargassum polycystum biomass. The ion exchange sorption mechanism was confirmed by the proportional release of protons and by the total normality of the solution, which remained constant during the process. Equilibrium isotherms were determined for the binary systems, La/H and Eu/H for a total ...
متن کاملCharacterization of the biosorption of cadmium, lead and copper with the brown alga Fucus vesiculosus.
The recovery of cadmium, lead and copper with the brown alga Fucus vesiculosus was characterized and quantified. The biosorption data fitted the pseudo-second order and Langmuir isotherm models, but did not adjust to the intraparticle diffusion model. The metal uptakes deduced from the pseudo-second order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model followed a similar sequence: Cu>Cd approxima...
متن کاملBiosorption of lead and nickel by biomass of marine algae.
Screening tests of different marine algae biomas types revealed a high passive biosorptive uptake of lead up to 270 mg Pb/g of biomass in some brown marine algae. Members of the order Fucales perfomed particularly well in this descending sequence: Fucus > Ascophyllum > Sargassum. Although decreasing the swelling of wetted biomass particles, their reinforcement by crosslinking may significantly ...
متن کاملAnti-HIV-1 activity of Sargassum swartzii a marine brown alga
Methods The HIV inhibitory activity of aqueous and methanolic extracts of S. swartzii was determined on laboratory adapted strains of HIV-1 clades C and A by indirectly measuring reduction in HIV-1 gag p24 antigen levels and inhibition of HIV-1 RT activity in supernatants of virus infected donor peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) cultures grown in varying concentrations of the extracts. P...
