Selective biosorption of heavy metals by algae*
Thirty strains of algae were examined for their biosorption abilities for the uptake of cadmium, lead, nickel and zinc from aqueous solutions. A wide range of adsorption capacities was observed between the different strains of algae and between the four metals. The cyanophyceae Lyngbya taylorii exhibited high uptake capacities for the four metals. It was confirmed by using instrumental analysis...
متن کاملBiosorption of Heavy Metals Using Algae: a Review
Various algal species can be used for removing heavy metals like Cd, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn from aqueous solutions successfully. Biological removal of metals is possible by both living and non living algal biomass. Algal biosorption is dependent on various parameters such as pH, biomass concentration, temperature, contact time and initial concentration of metal ion in the solution. The potential me...
متن کاملAdsorption of heavy metals using marine algae
The discharge of heavy metals into aquatic ecosystem has become a matter of concern in South Africa over the last few decades. These pollutants are introduced into the aquatic systems significantly as a result of various industrial operations. Conventional methods for metal removal such as ion exchange, reverse osmosis, etc. have proven to be expensive. Due to the increasing awareness of ecolog...
متن کاملHeavy metals biosorption by mushrooms
The use of absorbents of biological origin has emerged in the last decade as one of the most promising alternatives for the control of environmental pollution caused by heavy metals. A number of methods, viz. chemical precipitation, evaporation, electroplating, ion exchange, membrane, processes, etc. exist for the removal of heavy metals from liquid wastes. All these methods are expensive and h...
متن کاملBiosorption of Heavy Metals
The discharge of heavy metals into aquatic ecosystems has become a matter of concern in India over the last few decades. These pollutants are introduced into the aquatic systems significantly as a result of various industrial operations. Industrialization in India gained a momentum with initiation of five year developmental plan in the early 50's. The pollutants of concern include lead, chromiu...
