Potential role of Spirulina (Arthrospira) platensis biomass for removal of TiO2NPs -MG hybrid nanocomposite produced after wastewater treatment by TiO2 nanoparticles.

Biosynthesis of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2NPs) by Sphingomonas paucimobilis B34 bacteria was successfully achieved and followed by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) techniques. The biosynthesized TiO2NPs were spherical in shape with an average particle size of 15.

The role of silver nanoparticles biosynthesized by and cyanobacteria for malachite green removal from wastewater.

In this study, biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using two species of cyanobacteria, (Kütz) and (Gomont) was investigated and evaluated for dye removing capacity. The formation of AgNPs was detected by the change in colour using UV-Vis spectroscopy and further characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy FTIR). The obtained AgNPs were spherical to oval with average particle size of 17.

Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles by cell-free extracts from some bacteria species for dye removal from wastewater.

Objectives: To investigate the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using extracts of some bacterial isolates Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus paralicheniformis and Sphingomonas paucimobilis. The formation of AgNPs was detected by the change in color into yellow and confirmed by the UV-Vis spectroscopy. The nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).
