“…Other biomasses that were also tested to assess copper biosorption were Chlorella pyrenoidosa, reaching 0.48 mmol/g [41] and Ochrobactrum MT180101: in this strain, there were several mechanisms involved in the biosorption of this metal: surface biosorption, extracellular chelation and bienzyme-mediated biotransformation, which supposes a superior efficiency in the copper biosorption [5]. The commercial biomass of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae Perlage ® BB with a maximum biosorption capacity of 4.73 mg/g [113], dead biomass of Penicillium ochrochloron with an average biosorption capacity of 7.53 mg/g [114], Sargassum filipendula [42] and alginate-based biosorbent produced from seaweed Sargassum sp. with a maximum biosorption capacity of 1.64 mmol/g [70] are recent examples of different biomasses that have been evaluated to determine their capacity as copper biosorbents.…”

Biosorption is a variant of sorption techniques in which the sorbent is a material of biological origin. This technique is considered to be low cost and environmentally friendly, and it can be used to remove pollutants from aqueous solutions. The objective of this review is to report on the most significant recent works and most recent advances that have occurred in the last couple of years (2019–2020) in the field of biosorption. Biosorption of metals and organic compounds (dyes, antibiotics and other emerging contaminants) is considered in this review. In addition, the use and possibilities of different forms of biomass (live or dead, modified or immobilized) are also considered.

“…The Gram-negative bacterium Cupriavidus basilensis SRS, which has predatory tendencies, presents mechanisms of resistance to antibiotics, as well as the presence of copper in culture medium [ 33 ]. Lacerda et al [ 34 ] studied the absorption capacity of the dead biomass of Penicillium ochrochloron and found an ability to act as a biosorbent to remove copper from an aqueous solution. They concluded that the dead biomass of P. ochrochloron could be successfully used in the bioremediation of copper in an aquatic environment [ 34 ].…”

Copper-Contaminated Substrate Biosorption by Penicillium sp. Isolated from Kefir Grains

et al. 2023

In this bioremediation study, the fungus Penicillium sp. isolated from kefir grains was evaluated for its resistance to copper in the culture medium. Penicillium sp. was cultivated in liquid medium prepared using 2% malt-agar at pH 7.0. Biomass of the fungus was significantly reduced, but only when 800 mg·L−1 of Cu(NO3)2 copper nitrate was used. The effect on radial growth of the fungus in experiments combining different pH values and the inorganic contaminant showed an inhibition of 73% at pH 4.0, 75% at pH 7.0 and 77% at pH 9.0 in liquid medium. Thus, even though the growth of Penicillium sp. could be inhibited with relatively high doses of copper nitrate, images obtained with scanning electron microscopy showed the preservation of fungal cell integrity. Therefore, it can be concluded that Penicillium sp. isolated from kefir grains can survive while performing bioremediation to minimize the negative effects of copper on the environment through biosorption.

“…Nonliving biomass is low cost and more feasible for large scale as it does not need any specific conditions or any supplied nutrient to grow. Functional groups present on the surface of biomass, such as amine, carboxyl, hydroxyl, phosphate, sulfhydryl, etc., interact with the positively charged metal ions and help in their adsorption (Albadarin et al., 2011; Jianlong, 2002, Lacerda et al, 2019). Studies have reported successful removal of heavy metals, phenol, and azo dyes from the wastes by untreated as well as chemically modified biomass (Alemayehu & Lennartz, 2010; Patra et al., 2019, 2020a, 2020b, Bağda et al, 2018, Sekhar et al, 2003).…”

The study aims to assess the suitability of Dalbergia sissoo sawdust as a natural, i.e., nonmodified or nonchemically treated, biosorbent of zinc and nickel metal ions. The effect of important factors influencing biosorption, viz., pH, agitation rate, biomass content, metal concentration, contact time on the metal adsorption potential of sawdust, was investigated for biosorption. Further, isotherms and kinetic models were employed to understand the kinetics of the sorption process. Maximum biosorption of Zn and Ni was found at 20 and 10 mg/L concentrations at pH 7 and 5, agitation rate 120 and 100 rpm, biomass content of 1.5 and 0.5 g, and contact time 30 minute and 90 minutes, respectively. Adsorption isotherm models of Langmuir and Freundlich showed a good fit for Zn and Ni metal ions, respectively. Both metal ions followed pseudo‐second‐order kinetics during the biosorption process mainly governed by the chemisorption process via covalent interactions between metal ions and sawdust. The results support D. sissoo sawdust as a low‐cost biosorbent at low concentrations of Ni and Zn. This can predict the efficiency of the untreated sawdust of D. sissoo to eliminate the low concentration of Zn and Ni heavy metals from wastewaters.
