Comparative Biosorption Analysis of Chicken Feathers and Absorbent Pads on Crude Oil Contaminated Soil
Abstract: The study was done for the biosorption of hydrocarbon contaminated soil using chicken feather waste (CFW) and adsorbent pad adsorbents (AP). The adsorbents materials were sourced locally and prepared accordingly and made ready for the adsorption process. To analyze the adsorption of crude oil from contaminated soil, the following time intervals were used: 0 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, 15 weeks, and 20 weeks. Additionally, varying amounts of …

Study of Heavy Metal ion adsorption from Synthetic Wastewater with the help of biomass and analysis of Mathematical Model
Abstract: The biofilm matrix is a mixture of secreted polymers, metabolites and nutrients ingested, lysis solution products, and even particle debris. This matrix, which is polyanionic by nature, is essential for the activated carbon of metal cations. In this study, the heavy metal adsorption mechanism in biofilms is modelled in one spatial dimension. The numerical method is a free-boundary value issue for nonlinear parabolic and quadratic partial differential equations. Parabolic equations …

In Vitro Evaluation of Bioremediation Capacity of a Commercial Probiotic, Bacillus clausii, for Chromium (VI) and Lead (II) Toxicity
Abstract: Heavy metals cause disastrous effects on any living organisms. Probiotics have the ability to reduce metal toxicity. Commercial probiotics having bioremediation capacity can use these bacteria as an alternative to conventional remediation methods. The bioaccumulation of heavy metals including chromium (VI) (Cr [VI]) and lead (II) (Pb [II]) causes fatal toxicity in humans. Some naturally occurring bacterial species, such as Bacillus and Pseudomonas, contribute their role in bioremediation of these …
