“…for removal of heavy metals from wastewater are very expensive and these do not remove heavy metals from wastewater up to desired limits. Recently, microbes have been reported as biological adsorbents to remove heavy metals from wastewater at low cost and in eco-friendly way [3][4][5][6].…”

“…Entretanto, outros materiais denominados bioadsorventes vêm sendo empregados com êxito em processos de separação e pré-concentração de íons metálicos. 7,8 O termo bioadsorvente designa material que não seja produzido sinteticamente; adicionalmente, são de fácil aquisição e, em alguns casos, são subprodutos de processos industriais. 9 Diversos bioadsorventes são utilizados para a remoção de íons metálicos de efluentes industriais.…”

“…Phytovolatization includes the use of plants to volatilize pollutants from their foliage such as Se and Hg. Phytodegradation means the use of plants and related microorganisms to destroy organic pollutants [81]. Some plants may have one function while others can include two or more functions of phytoremediation.…”

“…Fungi (Ligninolytic fungi) such as the white rot fungus Phanaerochaete chrysosporium and Polyporus sp. are capable candidates for bioremediation, as it shows the capability to degrade an enormously varied range of persistent or toxic environmental pollutants such as petroleum hydrocarbons, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), explosives, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and organochlorine pesticides [80,81].…”
