    Recovery of Metals From Leach Liquors: Biosorption Versus Metal Sulfide Precipitation
    (Springer Nature, 2024) Kucuker,M.A.
    Extraction of metals (leaching) is chemical or biochemical processes that utilize acids or microorganisms to enhance the suspension of metals from the primary and secondary sources by making them more amenable to dissolution in aqueous solutions (leachate). Recovery of metals from the leachates is an essential stage supported by additional purification processes such as precipitation of impurities, electrowinning, solvent extraction, chemical or biological adsorption, and ion exchange. In this study, especially biosorption and metal sulfide precipitation are overviewed and discussed. Biosorption is a process by which particular biomass such as bacteria, fungi, yeast, agricultural wastes, algae, and biowastes can able to bind with specific ions or other molecules from aqueous solutions. Metal sulfide precipitation can be highly effective in obtaining a high degree of separation of metal cations from complex leachates. Each of these techniques has advantages and drawbacks. Sometimes, a technique may not be effective in attaining higher metal recovery. Therefore, different recovery techniques are needed to recover the target elements from the complex leachates. Maybe a combination of two or three recovery techniques is required to recover metals from complex leachates. Additionally, the research activity highlighted that metal sulfide precipitation and biosorption processes have to limit factors that could hinder the process scale-up. Thus, more research is needed to evaluate the environmental impacts of metal recovery from leach liquors. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.

    Biosorption of Methylene Blue From Water by Live Lemna Minor
    (Elsevier, 2021) Can Terzi, Begüm; Gören, Ayşegül Yağmur; Ökten, Hatice Eser; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil
    A number of green treatment technologies have been used for textile wastewater treatment, among which phytoremediation is a low cost, effective, and promising alternative - to conventional treatment techniques. The aim of this study was to investigate performance of Lemna minor (L. minor) for phytoremediation of Methylene Blue (MB). A Box-Behnken experimental design (BBD) was applied to study individual and combined effect of operating parameters on MB dye removal efficiency: MB dye concentration (x(1): 5 - 25 mgL(-1)), amount of L. minor (x(2): 1 - 5 g), and pH of the solution (x(3): 4.5 - 9.0). Response surface analysis and response model were utilized to reveal the relationship between operating parameters and MB removal efficiency. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analyses of L. minor samples were used to infer on the removal mechanism. The predicted optimum values were x(1) = 15 mgL(-1), x(2) = 4.9 g, and x(3) = 6.8, for the highest removal efficiency (98%) within 24 h. FTIR and SEM analyses indicated that the dye removal mechanism was mainly biosorption. Desorption experiments revealed that L. minor released only a small fraction of the sorbed dye. Consequently, in addition to being environmental friendly and cost effective, results of this study show that L. minor can be effectively used for MB dye removal from wastewaters while adding to the pertinent but limited literature by presenting its applicability in wider operating parameter ranges, maximization of removal efficiency through experimental design, and evidence that biosorption is a plausible mechanism.
