Bioremoval of Cobalt(II) from Aqueous Solution by Three Different and Resistant Fungal Biomasses.

ABSTRACT: The biosorption of Co(II) on three fungal biomasses: Paecilomyces sp., Penicillium sp., and Aspergillus niger, was studied in this work. The fungal biomass of Paecilomyces sp. showed the best results, since it removes 93% at 24?h of incubation, while the biomasses of Penicillium sp. and Aspergillus niger are less efficient, since they remove the metal 77.5% and 70%, respectively, in the same time of incubation, with an optimum pH of removal for the three analyzed biomasses of 5.0?±?0.2 at 28°C. Regarding the temperature of incubation, the most efficient biomass was that of Paecilomyces sp., since it removes 100%, at 50°C, while the biomasses of Penicillium sp. and Aspergillus niger remove 97.1% and 94.1%, at the same temperature, in 24?hours of incubation. On the contrary, if the concentration of the metal is increased, the removal capacity for the three analyzed biomasses decreases; if the concentration of the bioadsorbent is increased, the removal of the metal also increases. It was observed that, after 4 and 7?days of incubation, 100%, 100%, and 96.4% of Co(II) present in naturally contaminated water were removed, respectively.

Project description:The treatment by Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) of wastewater polluted with dyes is of particular interest in the field of environmental engineering, especially for the removal azo-dyes, representing over 50% of the global annual production of dyes. Unfortunately, most azo-dyes are non-biodegradable and can be toxic to aquatic organisms. This is the first data article that applies the methodology of response surface for the optimization of decolorization of an azo-compound using cobalt in a homogeneous medium as the catalyst of a bicarbonate activated hydrogen peroxide (BAP) system which, in turn, is an emerging technology for wastewater treatment. The Response Surface Methodology (RSM) based on a Central Composite Design (CCD) was used to evaluate and optimize the influence of three experimental variables (stoichiometric dosage of H2O2, molar ratio H2O2/NaHCO3 and cobalt concentration) on the decolorization of Ponceau 4R. Reactions were performed at 25 °C, pH 8.3 with a reaction time of 2 h. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed values of R2 and adjusted-R2 of 0.9815 and 0.9648, and experimental data were fit to a second-order regression model. The optimal conditions to achieve a maximum decolorization (96.31%) of a Ponceau 4R aqueous solution of 20 mg/l were: 4.73 times stoichiometric dosage of H2O2, molar ratio H2O2/NaHCO3 of 1.70 and cobalt concentration of 11.16 µM. Under the optimal reaction conditions, the influence of temperature (20, 25, 30 and 35 °C) on decolorization was evaluated and data were adjusted to second order kinetics. To verify the efficiency of the BAP system on the decolorization of Ponceau 4R, under the optimal conditions of reaction, UV-Vis spectra, at different reaction times, were measured. Additionally, blank experiments in order to evaluate the effect of individual factors in the Ponceau 4R decolorization, using BAP system, were carried out. Data showed that the Co(II)-NaHCO3-H2O2 system is a suitable technology for the decolorization of azo-dyes aqueous solutions.

Project description:The present work investigated the utilization of dead biomass of the highly multi-heavy metals tolerant indigenous fungal strain NRCA8 isolated from the mycobiome of fertilizer industry effluents that containing multiple heavy metal ions at high levels to remove Pb2+, Ni2+, Zn2+, and Mn2+ as multiple solutes from multi-metals aqueous solutions for the first time. Based on morphotype, lipotype and genotype characteristics, NRCA8 was identified as Cladosporium sp. NRCA8. The optimal conditions for the bioremoval procedure in the batch system were pH 5.5 for maximum removal (91.30%, 43.25%, and 41.50%) of Pb2+, Zn2+ and Mn2+ but pH 6.0 supported the maximum bioremoval and uptake of Ni2+ (51.60% and 2.42 mg/g) by NRCA8 dead biomass from the multi-metals aqueous solution, respectively. The 30 min run time supported the highest removal efficiency and uptake capacity of all heavy metals under study. Moreover, the equilibrium between the sorbent NRCA8 fungal biomass and sorbates Ni2+, Pb2+ and Zn2+ was attained after increasing the dead biomass dose to 5.0 g/L. Dead NRCA8 biomass was described by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer before and after biosorption of Pb2+, Ni2+, Zn2+ and Mn2+ under multiple metals system. The Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Kaganer-Radushkevich isotherms were applied to characterize the adsorption equilibrium between Pb2+, Ni2+, Mn2+ and Zn2+ and the adsorbent NRCA8. By comparing the obtained coefficient of regression (R2) by Freundlich (0.997, 0.723, 0.999, and 0.917), Langmiur (0.974, 0.999, 0.974, and 0.911) and Dubinin-Radushkevich (0.9995, 0.756, 0.9996 and 0.900) isotherms values for Pb2+, Zn2+, Ni2+ and Mn2+ adsorption, respectively, it was found that the isotherms are proper in their own merits in characterization the possible of NRCA8 for removal of Pb2+, Zn2+, Ni2+ and Mn2+. DKR isotherm is the best for Pb2+ and Ni2+ (0.9995 and 0.9996) while Langmiur isotherm giving a good fit to the Zn2+ sorption (0.9990) as well as Freundlich isotherm giving a good fit to the Mn2+ sorption (0.9170). The efficiencies of Cladosporium sp. NRCA8 dead biomass for bioremoval of heavy metals from real wastewater under the optimized conditions were Pb2+, Ag+, Mn2+, Zn2+ and Al3+ ˃ Ni2+ ˃ Cr6+ ˃ Co2+ ˃ Fe3+ ˃ Cu2+ ˃ Cd2+. Dead NRCA8 biomass showed efficient ability to adsorb and reduce harmful components in the industrial effluents to a level acceptable for discharge into the environment.
