Biosorbent Based on Nonliving Biomass for Textile Dye Retention from Aqueous Media
Journal Title: BULETINUL INSTITUTULUI POLITEHNIC DIN IASI, CHIMIE SI INGINERIE CHIMICA - Year 2018, Vol 64, Issue 4
Abstract
Due to the benefits of using microorganisms or grafting natural materials as bio-adsorbents, the specialists’ attention has been oriented to developing new techniques of bioremediation, as a part of the environment biotechnologies. The article presents the results regarding the biosorptive behavior of non-living biomass (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) immobilized in alginate granules for removing different organic dyes (i.e. Orange 16, Brilliant Red HE-3B, Rhodamine B, Methylene Blue) from aqueous solution. The biosorption process has been studied in order to establish the optimum conditions of operating process: solution pH, temperature, contact time, initial dye concentration, and type of dye.
