Biosorption of pb(II) from aqueous solution by : adsorption studies, and modeling.

Removing toxic Pb(II) ions from aqueous solution by the peels of (mandarin orange), a fruit industry waste, presents suitable scale-up possibilities. The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) studies reflected that the mandarin orange peel powder had a porous surface area (32.46 mg), average pore size and pore volume was 38.

Effect of complex nutrients, amino acids, vitamins on Ni(II) biosorption from aqueous solution by Ni(II) resistant AJ208.

The paper aims to establish and enhance the microorganism's successful growth, proper activity, and biosorption potency for Ni(II) biosorption from an aqueous solution using 5,000 mg/l Ni(II) resistant AJ208. Complex nutrients, amino acids, and vitamins were added to the specifically optimized fermentation media as essential growth factors. Amino acids such as L-cysteine (0.

Development of Ni(II) resistant S. cerevisiae and its application: Adsorption study and modeling.

The study aims to develop Ni(II) resistant Saccharomyces cerevisiae to decontaminate high Ni(II) concentrations from an aqueous system. Initially, two different microorganisms were taken: Bacillus circulans MTCC 3161, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. For these two strains, the experiments were carried out for successive screening for survival/tolerance, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), and biosorption capacity for Ni(II) from an aqueous solution.

Pb(II) adsorption from aqueous solution by nutshells, green adsorbent: Adsorption studies, regeneration studies, scale-up design, its effect on biological indicator and MLR modeling.

In this paper, agricultural waste nutshells, such as walnut and almond shell, were utilized to treat Pb(II) containing aqueous solution. Lead(II) is a typical poisonous, commercial, water-pollutant, having multiple awful effects on the environment. The effluent of the different industrial wastewater cans is treated by using leftover and excess green waste.

Biosorption of chromium (VI) from aqueous solutions and ANN modelling.

The use of sustainable, green and biodegradable natural wastes for Cr(VI) detoxification from the contaminated wastewater is considered as a challenging issue. The present research is aimed to assess the effectiveness of seven different natural biomaterials, such as jackfruit leaf, mango leaf, onion peel, garlic peel, bamboo leaf, acid treated rubber leaf and coconut shell powder, for Cr(VI) eradication from aqueous solution by biosorption process. Characterizations were conducted using SEM, BET and FTIR spectroscopy.

Comparative study of adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) ion from aqueous solution in fixed bed column by peanut shell and almond shell using empirical models and ANN.

Cr(VI) is a toxic water pollutant, which causes cancer and mutation in living organisms. Adsorption has become the most preferred method for removal of Cr(VI) due to its high efficiency and low cost. Peanut and almond shells were used as adsorbents in downflow fixed bed continuous column operation for Cr(VI) removal.

Removal of Pb(II) ions from aqueous solution using water hyacinth root by fixed-bed column and ANN modeling.

Hyacinth root was used as a biosorbent for generating adsorption data in fixed-bed glass column. The influence of different operating parameters like inlet Pb(II) ion concentration, liquid flow rate and bed height on the breakthrough curves and the performance of the column was studied. The result showed that the adsorption efficiency increased with increase in bed height and decreased with increase in inlet Pb(II) ion concentration and flow rate.
