Gulay Bayramoglu; Sema Bektaş; M. Yakup Arica

Trametes versicolor mycelia were immobilized in carboxymethylcellulose, CMC, beads via entrapment, and the bead containing immobilized fungus spores were incubated at 30 degrees C for 3 days to attain uniform growth on the bead surface. After incubation, the live and heat inactivated immobilized fungus on the CMC beads were used for the biosorption of Cu(2+), Pb(2+) and Zn(2+) ions. Plain CMC beads were used as a control system. The biosorption of Cu(2+), Pb(2+) and Zn(2+) ions by the CMC and both live and inactivated immobilized preparations increased as the initial concentration of Cu(2+), Pb(2+) and Zn(2+) ions in the medium increased. The maximum biosorption capacities for both immobilized live and heat inactivated Trametes versicolor were 1.51 and 1.84mmol Cu(2+), 0.85 and 1.11mmol Pb(2+) and 1.33 and 1.67mmol Zn(2+) per g of dry biosorbents, respectively. Biosorption equilibrium was established in about 1.0h and the equilibrium was well described by Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. A temperature change in the range of 15-45 degrees C did not affect the biosorption capacity. The affect of pH was also investigated and the maximum adsorption of Cu(2+), Pb(2+) and Zn(2+) ions on the CMC and both live and inactivated immobilized fungal biomass was observed between pH 4.0 and 6.0. The CMC beads with the immobilized fungus can be regenerated using 10mM HCl, with up to 97% recovery of the metal ions; the biosorbents reused up to five biosorption-desorption cycles without any major loss in the biosorption capacity.

Enzymatic removal of phenol and p-chlorophenol in enzyme reactor: Horseradish peroxidase immobilized on magnetic beads

Gulay Bayramoglu; M. Yakup Arica

Horseradish peroxidase was immobilized on the magnetic poly(glycidylmethacrylate-co-methylmethacrylate) (poly(GMA-MMA)), via covalent bonding and used for the treatment of phenolic wastewater in continuous systems. For this purposes, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was covalently immobilized onto magnetic poly(GMA-MMA) beds using glutaraldehyde (GA) as a coupling agent. The maximum HRP immobilization capacity of the magnetic poly(GMA-MMA)-GA beads was 3.35 mg g(-1). The immobilized HRP retained 79% of the activity of the free HRP used for immobilization. The immobilized HRP was used for the removal of phenol and p-chlorophenol via polymerization of dissolved phenols in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)). The effect of pH and temperature on the phenol oxidation rate was investigated. The results were compared with the free HRP, which showed that the optimum pH value for the immobilized HRP is similar to that for the free HRP. The optimum pH value for free and immobilized HRP was observed at pH 7.0. The optimum temperature for phenols oxidation with immobilized HRP was between 25 and 35 degrees C and the immobilized HRP has more resistance to temperature inactivation than that of the free form. Finally, the immobilized HRP was operated in a magnetically stabilized fluidized bed reactor, and phenols were successfully removed in the enzyme reactor.

Entrapment of Lentinus sajor-caju into Ca-alginate gel beads for removal of Cd(II) ions from aqueous solution: preparation and biosorption kinetics analysis

Gulay Bayramoglu; Adil Denizli; Sema Bektaş; M. Yakup Arica

Abstract A white rot fungus species Lentinus sajor-caju biomass was entrapped into alginate gel via a liquid curing method in the presence of Ca(II) ions. The biosorption of cadmium(II) by the entrapped live and dead fungal biomass has been studied in a batch system. The heat-treatment process enhanced the biosorption capacity of the immobilized fungal biomass. The effect of initial cadmium concentration, pH and temperature on cadmium removal has been investigated. The maximum experimental biosorption capacities for entrapped live and dead fungal mycelia of L. sajur-caju were found to be 104.8±2.7 mg Cd(II) g −1 and 123.5±4.3 mg Cd(II) g −1 , respectively. The kinetics of cadmium biosorption was fast, approximately 85% of biosorption taking place within 30 min. The biosorption equilibrium was well described by Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. The change in the biosorption capacity with time is found to fit pseudo-second-order equations. Cadmium binding properties of entrapped fungal preparations have been determined applying the Ruzic equations. Since the biosorption capacities are relatively high for both entrapped live and dead forms, they could be considered as suitable biosorbents for the removal of cadmium in wastewater treatment systems. The biosorbents were reused in three consecutive adsorption/desorption cycles without significant loss in the biosorption capacity.

Construction a hybrid biosorbent using Scenedesmus quadricauda and Ca-alginate for biosorption of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Ni(II): kinetics and equilibrium studies.

Gulay Bayramoglu; M. Yakup Arica

The potential use of the immobilized fresh water algae (in Ca-alginate) of Scenedesmus quadricauda to remove Cu(II), Zn(II) and Ni(II) ions from aqueous solutions was evaluated using Ca-alginate beads as a control system. Ca-alginate beads containing immobilized algae were incubated for the uniform growth at 22 degrees C for 5d ays. Adsorption of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Ni(II) ions on the immobilized algae showed highest values at around pH 5.0. Adsorption of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Ni(II) ions on the immobilized algae increased as the initial concentration of metal ions increased in the medium. The maximum adsorption capacities of the immobilized algal biosorbents for Cu(II), Zn(II) and Ni(II) were 75.6, 55.2 and 30.4 mg/g (or 1.155, 0.933 and 0.465 mmol/g) biosorbent, respectively. When the heavy metal ions were in competition, the amounts of adsorbed metal ions were found to be 0.84 mol/g for Cu(II), 0.59 mol/g for Ni(II) and 0.08 mol/g for Zn(II), the immobilised algal biomass was significantly selective for Cu(II) ions. The adsorption-equilibrium was also represented with Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich adsorption isotherms. The adsorption of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Ni(II) ions on the immobilized algae followed second-order kinetic.

M. Yakup Arica; Begum Altintas; Gulay Bayramoglu

Non-porous poly(glycidyl methacrylate/ethyleneglycol dimetacrylate) (poly(GMA/EGDMA)) beads were prepared by suspension polymerization. The enzyme (i.e. laccase) was covalently immobilized onto plain and spacer-arm attached poly(GMA/EGDMA) beads. The amount of immobilized enzyme on the plain and spacer-arm attached beads was determined as 5.6 and 4.9 mg/g, respectively. The maximum activity (V(max)) and Michaelis constant (K(m)) of laccase immobilized on the spacer-arm attached beads, were found to be 77.6 U/min and 0.47 mM, respectively. Finally, the immobilized laccase was operated in a batch system, and textile dye Reactive Red 120 was successfully decolorized in the enzyme reactor.

Synthesis of cr(VI)-imprinted poly(4-vinyl pyridine-co-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) particles: Its adsorption propensity to Cr(VI)

Gulay Bayramoglu; M. Yakup Arica

The aim of this study is to prepare ion-imprinted polymers, which can be used for the selective removal of Cr(VI) anions from aqueous media. 4-Vinyl pyridine (4-VP) was used as functional monomer. The Cr(VI)-imprinted poly(4-vinyl pyridine-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate), poly(VP-HEMA), particles were prepared by bulk polymerization. The Cr(VI)-imprinted polymer particles were grained from the bulk polymer, and the template ions (i.e., Cr(VI)) were removed using thiourea (0.5%, v/v) in 0.5M HCl. The Cr(VI)-imprinted polymer contained 21.4 μmol 4-VP/g polymers. The specific surface area of the IIP2 particles was found to be 34.5m(2)/g (size range of 75-150 μm), and the swelling ratio was about to 108%. The effect of initial concentration of Cr(VI) anions, the adsorption rate and the pH of the medium on adsorption capacity of Cr(VI)-imprinting polymer were studied. The maximum experimental adsorption capacity was 3.31 mmol Cr(VI)/g polymer. Under competitive condition, the adsorption capacity of Cr(VI)-imprinted particles for Cr(VI) is 13.8 and 11.7 folds greater than that of the Cr(III) and Ni(II) ions, respectively. The first- and second order kinetics models were estimated on the basis of comparative analysis of the corresponding rate parameters, equilibrium capacity and correlation coefficients. The Langmuir adsorption isotherm model was well described the Cr(VI)-imprinted system and the maximum adsorption capacity (Q(max)) was found to be 3.42 mmol/g. Moreover, the reusability of the poly(VP-HEMA) particles was tested for several times and no significant loss in adsorption capacity was observed.

Reversible immobilization of laccase to poly(4-vinylpyridine) grafted and Cu(ii) chelated magnetic beads: biodegradation of reactive dyes.

Gulay Bayramoglu; Meltem Yilmaz; M. Yakup Arica

Poly(4-vinyl pyridine), poly(VP), as a novel metal-chelating fibrous polymer was grafted on the magnetic beads. Poly(4-VP) grafted and/or Cu(II) ions chelated magnetic beads were used for reversible immobilization of Trametes versicolor laccase, and the amounts of immobilized laccase on the beads were determined as 36.8 and 56.4 mg/g beads, respectively. The adsorption of laccase on both modified magnetic beads appeared to follow the Langmuir isotherm model. The degradation of textile dyes with immobilized laccase on the metal chelated magnetic beads was evaluated in a batch system. Three different reactive textile dyes (i.e., Reactive Green 19, Reactive Red 2 and Reactive Brown 10) were successfully degraded in the enzyme reactor. It was observed that the decolorization rate varied widely with chemical structure and types of the substitute group of the reactive dye molecules.

The removal of phenol (Ph) and 2-chlorophenol (2-CPh) from aqueous solution by native and heat inactivated fungus Funalia trogii pellets were investigated. The effects of contact time, solid/liquid ratio, optimum pH and temperature on the phenols removal capacity by the pellets were established. The removal efficiency of phenols increased significantly with increasing biomass dose. The optimum pH was detected to be 8.0. The second-order equations are described and evaluated on the basis of a comparative estimation of the corresponding coefficients. The phenol removal equilibrium isotherm was modeled by the Langmuir equations. The enthalpy change values were obtained between -7.62 and -10.64 kJ/mol. This indicated that the uptake of phenols either on native or heat inactivated fungal pellets was based on a physical adsorption process.

Hüseyin Avni Öktem; Gulay Bayramoglu; Veli Cengiz Özalp; Arica My

A DNA aptamer specific for Thermus aquaticus DNA polymerase (Taq‐polymerase) was immobilized on magnetic beads, which were prepared in the presented study. The effect of various parameters including pH, temperaturem and aptamer concentration on the immobilization of 5′‐thiol labeled DNA‐aptamer onto glutaric dialdhyde activated magnetic beads was evaluated. The binding conditions of Taq‐polymerase on the aptamer immobilized magnetic beads were studied using commercial Taq‐polymerase to characterize the surface complexation reaction. Efficiency of affinity magnetic beads in the purification of recombinant Taq‐polymerase from crude extracts was also evaluated. For this case, the enzyme “recombinant Taq‐DNA polymerase” was cloned and expressed using an Amersham E. coli GST‐Gene Fusion Expression system. Crude extracts were in contact with affinity magnetic beads for 30 min and were collected by magnetic field application. The purity of the eluted Tag‐polymerase from the affinity beads, as determined by HPLC, was 93% with a recovery of 89% in a one‐step purification protocol. Apparently, the system was found highly effective as one step for the low‐cost purification of Taq‐polymerase in bacterial crude extract.

Procion Green H-4G immobilized poly(hydroxyethylmethacrylate/chitosan) composite membranes for heavy metal removal

Ömer Genç; L Soysal; Gulay Bayramoglu; M.Y Arıca; Sema Bektaş

The effective removal of toxic heavy metals from environmental samples still remains a major topic of present research. Metal-chelating membranes are very promising materials as adsorbents when compared with conventional beads because they are not compressible, and they eliminate internal diffusion limitations. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of a novel adsorbent, Procion Green H-4G immobilized poly(hydroxyethylmethacrylate (HEMA)/chitosan) composite membranes, for the removal of three toxic heavy metal ions, namely, Cd(II), Pb(II) and Hg(II) from aquatic systems. The Procion Green H-4G immobilized poly(hydroxyethylmethacrylate/chitosan) composite membranes were characterized by elemental analysis, scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The immobilized amount of the Procion Green H-4G was calculated as 0.018+/-0.003 micromol/cm(2) from the nitrogen and sulphur stoichiometry. The adsorption capacity of Procion Green H-4G immobilized poly(hydroxyethylmethacrylate/chitosan) composite membranes for selected heavy metal ions from aqueous media containing different amounts of these ions (30-400mg/l) and at different pH values (2.0-6.0) was investigated. The amount of Cd(II), Pb(II) and Hg(II) adsorbed onto the membranes measured at equilibrium, increased with time during the first 45 min and then remained unchanged toward the equilibrium adsorption. The maximum amounts of heavy metal ions adsorbed were 43.60+/-1.74, 68.81+/-2.75 and 48.22+/-1.92 mg/g for Cd(II), Pb(II) and Hg(II), respectively. The heavy metal ion adsorption on the pHEMA/chitosan membranes (carrying no dye) were relatively low, 6.31+/-0.13 mg/g for Cd(II), 18.73+/-0.37 mg/g for Pb(II) and 18.82+/-0.38 mg/g for Hg(II). Competitive adsorption of the metal ions was also studied. When the metal ions competed with each other, the adsorbed amounts were 12.74+/-0.38 mg Cd(II)/g, 28.80+/-0.86 mg Pb(II)/g and 18.41+/-0.54 mg Hg(II)/g. Procion Green H-4G immobilized poly(hydroxyethylmethacrylate/chitosan) membranes can be regenerated by washing with a solution of nitric acid (0.01 M). The percent desorption achieved was as high as 95%. These novel membranes are suitable for repeated use for more than five adsorption/desorption cycles without any considerable loss in adsorption capacity. Adsorption equilibria were well described by Langmuir equation. It can be concluded that Procion Green H-4G immobilized poly(hydroxyethylmethacrylate/chitosan) membranes may effectively be used for the removal of Cd(II), Pb(II) and Hg(II) ions from aqueous solutions.
