“…Overall readings of phosphate in both acclimatization periods showed values lower than inlet, and 28 days of acclimatization showed a higher value of reduction based on the daily readings. A small portion of phosphate removal can also be subjected to the uptake by microorganisms to produce new cells and adsorption onto the medium surface [ [56] , [57] , [58] ]. Fig.…”

“…Phytoremediation or phytotechnology is one of environmentally friendly approaches that currently capture and attract researchers’ attention to exploit the capability of plants together with their associated microorganisms in rhizosphere to treat, remove, degrade, and detoxify different types of pollutants encompassing heavy metals, dyes, hydrocarbons, nutrients, carbon, mining, and radioactive ( Abdullah et al., 2020 ; Al-Ajalin et al., 2022 ; AL Falahi et al., 2021 ). Interaction of plant and microbe is a natural process occurring in the environment and now has been engineered to combat pollution problems.…”
Section: Role Of Rhizobacteria In Phytoremediation Of Heavy Metal Con...mentioning
“…Microorganisms, encompassing both viable and non-viable forms, have the potential to serve as biosorbents in the context of heavy metal remediation (Arliyani et al, 2023). The main advantages of the biosorption technology lie in its Biosorption of Lead and Copper by Epiphytic Rhizobacterial Species Isolated from Lepironia articulata and Scirpus grossus Fayeq Abdelhafez Al-Ajalin 1 , Mushrifah Idris 2 , Siti Rozaimah Sheikh Abdullah 3 , Setyo Budi Kurniawan 4 , Muhammad Fauzul Imron 5,6* ability to effectively reduce heavy metal ion concentrations to very low levels and its cost-effectiveness, as the biosorbent used is quite affordable (Purwanti et al, 2023). Additionally, biosorbent generates minimum residue that poses minor environmental risks (Kanamarlapudi et al 2018).…”
In this study, biosorption potential of nine epiphytic bacteria isolated from the rhizosphere of Lepironia articulata and Scirpus grossus were assessed. Identification of the isolated epiphytic rhizobacteria using 16S rRNA analysis showed species belonging to the four genera of Bacillus, Enterobacter, Aeromonas, and Chromobacterium. Batch biosorption studies were carried out to assess the capacity of the isolated bacteria to act as Pb and Cu biosorbents. Different initial concentrations of the two heavy metals (50, 100, 200, 300, and 400 ppm) were used to determine the ability of the biosorbent to reach a tolerance level and then calculate the percentage of biosorption with respect to 0.1 g dry weight. Initial concentration of Pb and Cu exposed showed that the isolated bacteria have high tolerance up to 400 ppm. Bacteria prefer Pb ions over Cu, which is indicated by higher removal of Pb in all tested reactors. Bacillus sp. (coded Sc1) showed the highest biosorption capacity with 100% Pb and 97% Cu removal.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
