چکیده

از دو سویه­‌ی بومی و مرجع قارچ آسپرژیلوس نیجر زنده برای حذف زیستی فلز سنگین اورانیم از محلول‌­های رقیق آبی استفاده شد. تأثیر pH (3-7)، غلظت اولیه­‌ی فلز (10-500 میلی­گرم بر لیتر)، زمان (30 -1440 دقیقه) و زیست توده‌­ی خشک (0.5-5 گرم بر لیتر) بررسی شد. جذب زیستی بیشینه در 5=pH و برابر 82.30 و 74.19 درصد برای سویه‌­ی، به ترتیب، مرجع و بومی به دست آمد. جذب بیشینه در غلظت اولیه­‌ی 500 میلی­گرم بر لیتر اورانیم و برای دو سویه­‌ی مرجع و بومی قارچ به ترتیب، 105 و 143.5 میلی­گرم اورانیم بر گرم زیست توده­‌ی خشک بود. واکنش زیستی، در مدت 60 و 120 دقیقه برای سویه­‌ی به ترتیب، مرجع و بومی به تعادل رسید. ظرفیت جذب بیشینه در مقدار 2 گرم بر لیتر زیست توده­‌ی خشک برای هر دو سویه­‌ی قارچ به دست آمد. مدل لانگمویر داده­‌های به دست آمده برای هر دو سویه‌­ی مرجع و بومی را با R2، به ترتیب، برابر با 0.9972 و 9979/0 به خوبی برازش نمود. با توجه به نتایج به دست آمده می‌­توان نتیجه گرفت که سویه­‌ی مرجع زیست توده­‌ی
زنده­‌ی آسپرژیلوس نیجر نسبت به سویه­‌ی بومی آن توانایی بیش­تری در حذف فلز اورانیم از محلول‌­های آبی دارد.

چکیده [English]

The biosorption characteristics of uranium(VI) on reference and indigenous strains of live A.niger were evaluated. The influences of pH (3.0-7.0), biomass concentration (0.05-0.5 g dry biomass /100mL), initial uranium concentration (10-500mg/L), and contact time(30-1440 minutes) were investigated. In order to determine the residual concentration of metal, inductive coupled plasma spectrometry was used. The results indicate that the maximum biosorption of U on reference and indigenous biomass occur at pH=5 as 82.30% and 74.19%, respectively. The biosorption equilibrium was established in 60 and 120 minutes for reference and indigenous biomasses, respectively. The maximum biosorption was observed at a concentration 0.2 g dry biomass/100 mL for both biomasses. The maximum biosorption capacity of U was developed at an initial concentration of uranium 500mg/L as 105 and 143.5 mgU/g dry biomass for reference and indigenous biomasses, respectively. The adsorption process of reference and indigenous live A.niger could be well-defined by Langmuir isotherm with R2 values of 0.9972 and 0.9979, respectively. The obtained results indicated that the reference strain of live A.niger is more efficient for biosorption of U from aqueous solution in comparison with indigenous strain.
