Biosorption 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...
متن کاملBiosorption of heavy metals.
Only within the past decade has the potential of metal biosorption by biomass materials been well established. For economic reasons, of particular interest are abundant biomass types generated as a waste byproduct of large-scale industrial fermentations or certain metal-binding algae found in large quantities in the sea. These biomass types serve as a basis for newly developed metal biosorption...
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 کاملAdvances in Biosorption of Heavy Metals
Biosorption of heavy metals by various types of non-living (microbial) biomass appears as a very cost-effective new alternative for decontamination of metal bearing effluents. The understanding of metal biosorption mechanisms has progressed to the point where the process is being readied for scale up and field applications. Packed bed sorption columns is perhaps the most efficient equipment for...
متن کاملSelective 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...
