| Abstract | In this work, the sorption of pentachlorophenol (PCP) by non-viable biomass of Rhizopus oryzae ENHE was evaluated. The kinetics and isotherm studies were performed at pH 5.0, 6.0, and 8.0. The point of zero charge of the biomass was determined; this value allowed us to explain the changes of pH during sorption studies. The analyzed experimental kinetic data revealed that Ho’s model adjusted better to the experimental data than Lagergren’s model. PCP sorption was fast; an equilibrium sorption time was reached within 30 min, regardless of pH. PCP sorption at pH 5.0 and 6.0 was better described by the Freundlich isotherm than by the Langmuir isotherm. In contrast, at pH 8.0, the Langmuir isotherm describes better the PCP sorption. Sorption data showed that at pH 5.0 and 6.0, the sorption capacity of PCP was higher than at pH 8.0. Sorption of PCP by the fungal biomass occurred spontaneously; it was endothermic and due to physical sorption. Finally, FT-IR analysis of the dried biomass indicated that amino and hydroxyl groups were involved in the sorption of PCP. This work is one of the few reporting the effect of pH and temperature on the sorption of PCP by microbial biomass from a filamentous fungus belonging to the genus Rhizopus. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
