biosorption of lead (ii) and zinc (ii) ions by pre-treated biomass of phanerochaete chrysosporium

Biosorption of Lead (II) and Zinc (II) ions by pre-treated biomass of phanerochaete chrysosporium

The biosorption of heavy metals can be an effective process for the removal of such metal ions from aqueous solutions. In this study, the adsorption properties of nonliving biomass of phanerochaete chrysosporium for Pb (II) and Zn (II) were investigated by the use of batch adsorption techniques. The effects of initial metal ion concentration, initial pH, biosorbent concentration, stirring speed...

Biosorption of Cd(II) and Ni(II) Ions From Aqueous Solution by Raw and Pre-Treated Cystoseira Indica Algae

biosorption of cd(ii) and ni(ii) ions from aqueous solution by raw and pre-treated cystoseira indica algae

Removal of Cd(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) from aqueous solutions by live Phanerochaete chrysosporium.

Living Phanerochaete chrysosporium mycelia were used to remove heavy metals of Cd(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) in auqeous solution. The uptake of heavy metal by the mycelia was dependent on the environmental conditions. The optimum biosorption conditions of Cd(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) were pH 5.5-6.5 at 37 degrees C, and 6 h. Under these conditions, the fungal biosorbent removed Cd(II), Cu(II), and Zn...

Biosorption of Pb(II) and Co(II) on Red Rose Waste Biomass

In the present investigation the biosorption potential of rosa gruss an teplitz (Red Rose) Waste Biomass (RRWB) for the removal of Pb(II) and Co(II) from aqueous solutions was studied. The effect of different process parameters such as pH, biosorbent dose, biosorbent size, temperature, contact time, initial metal concentration and pretreatments on the biosorption capacity of this waste biom...

Equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic studies on biosorption of lead(II) and cadmium(II) from aqueous solution by polypores biomass

Polypores (woody pore fungi) biomass has been used as an biosorbent for the removal of Pb(II) and Cd(II) from aqueous solution under batch equilibrium experimental conditions. The resulting biosorbent is characterized by SEM and FTIR techniques. The effect of experimental parameters, such as solution pH, biomass dosage, contact time, initial metal ion concentration and temperature of Pb(II) and...
