Use of Vermicompost for the Removal of Toxic Metal Ions of Synthetic Aqueous Solutions and Real Aqueous Waste

Abstract: Samples of vermicompost were used to decontaminate aqueous media containing Cd2+, Cu2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Pb2+ and/or Zn2+ at concentration up to 10X higher than the limits of National Council of the Environment (Resolution 430/2011). For this purpose, 50.00 mL of synthetic solutions and wastewater from a chemical laboratory were stirred with dried vermicompost (~10.0000 g), in natura or with diameter ≤ 0.053 mm. Aqueous media were treated with vermicompost, either at rest (24, 48, 72, and/or 96 h) or under mechanic… Show more
