Abstract
Textile dyes are one of the major water pollutants released into water in various ways, posing serious hazards for both aquatic organisms and human beings. Bioremediation is a significantly promising technique for dye decolorization. In the present study, the fungal strain Lasiodiplodia sp. was isolated from the fruiting bodies of Schizophyllum for the first time. The isolated fungal strain was examined for laccase enzyme production under solid-state fermentation conditions with wheat bran (WB) using ABTS and 2,6-Dimethoxyphenol (DMP) as substrates, then the fermented wheat bran (FWB) was evaluated as a biosorbent for Congo red dye adsorption from aqueous solutions in comparison with unfermented wheat bran. A Box-Behnken design was used to optimize the dye removal by FWB and to analyze the interaction effects between three factors: fermentation duration, pH, and dye concentration. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were applied to study the changes in the physical and chemical characteristics of wheat bran before and after fermentation. An additional experiment was conducted to investigate the ability of the Lasiodiplodia sp. YZH1 to remove Congo red in the dye-containing liquid culture. The results showed that laccase was produced throughout the cultivation, reaching peak activities of ∼6.2 and 22.3 U/mL for ABTS and DMP, respectively, on the fourth day of cultivation. FWB removed 89.8% of the dye (100 mg L-1) from the aqueous solution after 12 h of contact, whereas WB removed only 77.5%. Based on the Box-Behnken design results, FWB achieved 93.08% dye removal percentage under the conditions of 6 days of fermentation, pH 8.5, and 150 mg L-1 of the dye concentration after 24 h. The fungal strain removed 95.3% of 150 mg L-1 of the dye concentration after 8 days of inoculation in the dye-containing liquid culture. These findings indicate that this strain is a worthy candidate for dye removal from environmental effluents.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2022; 214:113859. [PMID: 35841968 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.113859] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2022] [Revised: 06/01/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The present study was focused on the removal of Reactive Black 5 (RB5) from aqueous solution using pre treated Aspergillus flavus as a biosorbent. Pre-treatment of fungal biomass with 0.1 M sodium hydroxide facilitated the removal of dye effectively when compared to untreated fungal biomass. Optimum biosorption conditions for RB5 removal was determined as a function of dye concentration (50-400 mg/L), biosorbent concentration (100-500 mg/L), incubation time (1-7hrs), pH (3-8) and temperature (20-50 °C). At the optimum conditions, the maximum removal efficiency of RB5 achieved by NaOH pretreated A. flavus was 91%. The dye removal was studied kinetically and it obeys the pseudo-second order model and the experimental equilibrium data well fitted the Langmuir isotherm indicating monolayer adsorption of dye molecules on the biosorbent. The thermodynamic parameters such as a change in free energy (ΔG), enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy (ΔS) were calculated and negative values of ΔG suggested that the dye removal process was spontaneous at all temperatures. Furthermore, the values of ΔH revealed that the adsorption process was endothermic. Recovery of RB5 from the fungal biomass was effective using 0.1 M Na2CO3 as an eluent. The interaction of adsorbate with biosorbent was analyzed using UV-Vis and FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM and XRD analyses. Phytotoxicity and microbial toxicity studies revealed the non-toxic nature of the treated dye solution. Hence, the fungal biomass pretreated with NaOH was efficient in decolorizing RB5 as well as composite raw industrial effluent generated from dyeing industries.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 843:157026. [PMID: 35772531 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.157026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2022] [Revised: 06/03/2022] [Accepted: 06/24/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Enzyme-based bioremediation is a simple, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly method for isolating and removing a wide range of environmental pollutants. This study is a comprehensive review of recent studies on the oxidation of pollutants by biological oxidation methods, performed individually or in combination with other methods. The main bio-oxidants capable of removing all types of pollutants, such as organic and inorganic molecules, from fungi, bacteria, algae, and plants, and different types of enzymes, as well as the removal mechanisms, were investigated. The use of mediators and modification methods to improve the performance of microorganisms and their resistance under harsh real wastewater conditions was discussed, and numerous case studies were presented and compared. The advantages and disadvantages of conventional and novel immobilization methods, and the development of enzyme engineering to adjust the content and properties of the desired enzymes, were also explained. The optimal operating parameters such as temperature and pH, which usually lead to the best performance, were presented. A detailed overview of the different combination processes was also given, including bio-oxidation in coincident or consecutive combination with adsorption, advanced oxidation processes, and membrane separation. One of the most important issues that this study has addressed is the removal of both organic and inorganic contaminants, taking into account the actual wastewaters and the economic aspect.

[PMID: 34111598 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2021.113003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2021] [Revised: 05/22/2021] [Accepted: 06/02/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Leather post-tanning is responsible for producing effluents that are difficult to treat due to several recalcitrant pollutants. Dyes, tannins, and fatliquoring agents are mainly related to this characteristic. This study, as the state-of-the-art, attempts to systematically review treatment technologies applied in recent years to the post-tanning effluents. The Scopus database was used to identify articles related to post-tanning pollutants removal. Through the review, Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) and adsorption proved to be good alternatives to increase the effluent biodegradability when applied before biological treatment. AOPs and adsorption were also efficient for the final polishing of the effluents, to reach the regulation standards for disposal, as well as enzymatic treatment. Furthermore, Membrane Separation Processes demonstrated good applicability when the reuse of the treated effluent is aimed.
