This research project aimed to provide an environmentally friendly method for the decolorization and biosorption of synthetic dye by utilizing fungi as biosorbents. The study was carried out first growing in solid medium then using biosorbent absorb aqueous solution. In stage, screening experiments were among 5 different types fungi, Pleurotus ostreatus determined have highest growth rate. recu...

The present work concerns the experimental evaluation of hazelnut shells as a low cost natural biosorbent. Adsorption of the direct azo dye Congo Red was performed within a concentrations range of 50-5000 mg/L. Hazelnut shells were employed as organic support for Phanerochaete chrysosporium cultures to study the best cultural medium composition for the MnP production. The capability of Phaneroc...

Humans are at significant risk of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and antimicrobial (AMR) via exposure to pharmaceutical contaminants in water, so there is a strong need for cost-effective environmental solutions mitigate this crisis. This study introduces iron-modified peat magnetite-pine bark as efficient, low-cost green biosorbents the adsorption from wastewater. Peat biomass, modified by...

Sugarcane bagasse is an inexpensive and eco-friendly natural biosorbent for the removal of various organic pollutants. The adsorption Remazol Brilliant Violet-5R (RBV-5R) dye on sugarcane (SCB) was studied. Biosorbent characterized using EDX FTIR. effect experimental parameters, such as pH, dosage, initial concentration, contact time, with shaking without shaking, temperature, optimized. At pH ...

Rhizomucor tauricus is used in the production of lipase, after several cycles it is disposed off as biological waste. A new biosorbent material fungus, Rhizomucor tauricus was immobilized, used as an adsorbent for removal of Nickel (II) and for optimization Box-Behnken design used by statistica 6.0. The time required to reach equilibrium was found to be 4 hours. The optimized concentration is 6...

The ability of dead cells of endophytic Drechslera hawaiiensis of Morus alba L. grown in heavy metals habitats for bioremoval of cadmium (Cd2+), copper (Cu2+), and lead (Pb2+) in aqueous solution was evaluated under different conditions. Whereas the highest extent of Cd2+ and Cu2+ removal and uptake occurred at pH 8 as well as Pb2+ occurred at neutral pH (6-7) after equilibrium time 10 min. Ini...

Present address: Department of Botany, R. T. M. Nagpur University, Nagpur (M.S.), India Abstract Mining industries frequently generates acid mine drainage (AMD) either by its operating or abandoned mines which are often characterized by an elevated levels of certain heavy metals, sulphate, low pH and some other toxic impurities in mine water creates environmental and ecological problems. Presen...

Fe-treated biochar and raw biochar produced from macroalgae are effective biosorbents of metalloids and metals, respectively. However, the treatment of complex effluents that contain both metalloid and metal contaminants presents a challenging scenario. We test a multiple-biosorbent approach to bioremediation using Fe-biochar and biochar to remediate both metalloids and metals from the effluent...

The removal of heavy metals, especially from wastewater, has attracted significant interest because of their toxicity, tendency to bioaccumulate, and the threat they pose to human life and the environment. Many low-cost sorbents have been investigated for their biosorption capacity toward heavy metals. However, there are no reports available on the removal of Pb(II) from aqueous solution by of ...
