Biosorption of Malachite Green from Aqueous Solution Using Resting and Immobilised Biomass ofBacillus cereusM116(MTCC 5521)

Abstract: Biosorption of Malachite green, a hazardous environmentally persistent textile dye by resting and immobilised cells of mutant Bacillus cereus M 1 16 was standardised. Calcium alginate (3%) was found to be the most suitable and effective matrix for immobilisation of the biomass. Malachite green adsorption up to 91% and 83% was possible using resting and immobilised cells of B. cereus M 1 16 at pH 5.0, temperature 30°C, biomass concentration 0.5 g L −1 , initial dye concentration 100 mg L −1 and contact time 360… Show more

“…Maximum absorbance wavelength for dyes like Congo red, Crystal violet, Malachite green, Methyl red and Methylene blue is 498nm, 590nm, 617nm, 425nm and 668nm respectively [14][15][16][17][18]. In the UV-Vis spectra (Figure 3-7), a significant reduction has been observed in the absorbance values at these wavelengths for each specific dye in non-blank solutions as given in Table 1.…”
