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.

Polyhydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate copolymer modified graphite oxide based 3D scaffold for tissue engineering application.

In this study, we have fabricated the PHBV functionalized graphite oxide using freeze drying technique, followed by 'in situ' pay loading of FeO nanoparticles onto the hydrophobic plate of the composite basal plane; thereby, mechanically and thermally stable, bio-imaging FeO/GO-g-PHBV composites have been developed. The synthesis of FeO/GO-g-PHBV composite was confirmed by field emission SEM and TEM analyses, X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The wrapping of PHBV copolymer into the graphene layers was investigated by atomic force microscopy and Raman spectral analyses which provided the shifting of the 2D band with low signal intensity in the range of 2600-3000 cm.

Cu(II) removal using green adsorbents: kinetic modeling and plant scale-up design.

Cu(II) adsorption in continuous column using green adsorbents like peanut and almond shell was investigated. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Brunaer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Point of Zero charge (pH) determination have been used for characterization of the adsorbents. Experiments were conducted at various operating conditions to calculate the adsorption capacity of the adsorbents.

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.
