| Abstract | Immobilized biomass of white rot fungus Trametes pubescens was explored for adsorption of azo dye Congo Red. The biomass immobilized by sodium alginate enhanced the sorption capacity for Congo Red approximately 4-fold of the free biomass, which competed well with other reported sorbents. Dye uptake was favored by acidic conditions at pH 2.0 with increasing initial dye concentration up to 100 mg/L using less biomass at room temperature and agitation speed. Adsorption of dyes onto the biomass was weakly dependent on ionic strength. Additionally, the adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Freundlich isotherm models. During this process, the morphological changes on the biomass surface occurred; the amine functional groups present on the cell surface were mainly responsible for this process, and reduction in crystallinity of the biomass was observed, as confirmed by SEM, FT-IR, and X-ray diffraction, respectively. Desorption experiments were performed to regenerate the sorbent, making the process more economic and environmentally friendly. These demonstrated that the immobilized T. pubescens biomass is a promising sorbent for Congo Red removal. |

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.
