The mechanism of uranium biosorption by Rhizopus arrhizus.

Abstract:

:Biosorption of elements is a little understood phenomenon exhibited by some types of even nonliving microbial biomass. A common fungus Rhizopus arrhizus has been reported to take up uranium from aqueous solutions to the extent of 180 mg U(6+)/g. The mechanism of uranium sequestering by this type of biomass was studied by using experimental techniques such as electron microscopy, x-ray energy dispersion analysis, IR spectroscopy, and supporting evidence was obtained for a biosorption mechanism consisting of at least three processes. Uranium coordination and adsorption in the cell-wall chitin structure occur simultaneously and rapidly whereas precipitation of uranylhydroxide within the chitin microcrystalline cell-wall structure takes place at a lower rate. Interference of Fe(2+) and Zn(2+) coions with uranium biosorption is indicated.
