Nickel(II) biosorption by Rhodotorula glutinis

Abstract: The present study reports the feasibility of using Rhodotorula glutinis biomass as an alternative low-cost biosorbent to remove Ni(II) ions from aqueous solutions. Acetone-pretreated R. glutinis cells showed higher Ni(II) biosorption capacity than untreated cells at pH values ranging from 3 to 7.5, with an optimum pH of 7.5. The effects of other relevant environmental parameters, such as initial Ni(II) concentration, shaking contact time and temperature, on Ni(II) biosorption onto acetone-pretreated R. glutini… Show more

“…The opposite behavior occurred for Cr 3+ removal. Our results are in agreement with several recent studies which present the same pattern of Ni 2+ and Cr 3+ removal, even when using different types of adsorbents (Nehrenheim and Gustafsson, 2008;Calero et al, 2009;Karaoğlu et al, 2010;Anoop Krishnan et al, 2011;Fernandes and Gando-Ferreira, 2011;Suazo-Madrid et al, 2011;Alomá et al, 2012). The statistical parameters obtained show that all models were in good agreement with the experimental data, the maximum calculated AADs were 5.50%.…”

“…A much lower maximum sorption capacity was observed by Sari et al 20 and Celaya et al 37 who used Cladonia furcata and Thiobacillus ferrooxidans; the corresponding values were 7.9 mg/g (nickel) and 9.7 mg/g (zinc). On the other hand, a higher biosorption of Ni(II) was observed by Shinde et al 3 and Suazo-Madrid et al 31 , at 48.3 and 112.9 mg/g, respectively, using Y. lipolytica and Rhodotorula glutinis as biosorbents. In the case of Zn(II) biosorption, the maximum sorption capacity obtained in the studies by Joo et al 1 and Li et al 23 were 83.3 and 75.8 mg/g, respectively, using Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Streptomyces ciscaucasicus, respectively.…”

“…The capacity to biosorb Ni(II) from aqueous solutions has been analyzed in some microorganisms as well as in biomaterials such as agroindustrial, forestry, and fishery by-products and biowastes (Gialamouidis et al 2009;Malkoc 2006;Pradhan et al 2005;Suazo-Madrid et al 2011;Vinod et al 2010).…”

“…Divalent nickel [Ni(II)] is frequently encountered in raw wastewater streams from industrial processes such as nickel mining, metallurgy and electroplating, steel foundries and stainless steel production, electroforming and sintered metal coating production, non-ferrous metal, mineral processing, paint formulation, porcelain enameling, battery and accumulator manufacture, and steamelectric power plants (Pahlavanzadeh et al 2010;Shroff and Vaidya 2011a;Suazo-Madrid et al 2011). Although living organisms require trace amounts of Ni(II) for certain enzyme systems that participate in metabolic reactions such as ureolysis, hydrogen metabolism, methane biogenesis, and acidogenesis (Alomá et al 2012), long-term exposure to high Ni(II) levels may cause acute and chronic health disorders such as skin dermatitis, allergic sensitization, gastrointestinal distress (nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea), pulmonary fibrosis, renal edema, and severe damage to the lungs, kidney, nervous system, and mucous membranes (Borba et al 2006;Vinod et al 2010).…”
