Abstract
This study aimed to remove heavy metal cobalt from Shahid Tondgoian petrochemical wastewater in Mahshahr special economic zone using a biological method. The biosorption experiments were performed by Saccharomyces cerevisiae in a laboratory-scale batch system. Synthetic waste was initially used to optimize the parameters of pH, temperature, contact time, and biomass concentration. The optimal parameters were determined: the time of equilibrium 60 min, the temperature 25 °C, the biomass dose of 10%, and pH 5.5. Then the experiments were carried out with the real wastewater from Shahid Tandoogian Petrochemical Company. The highest percentage of removal was 80% and the maximum adsorption capacity was 88.2 mg/g. The equilibrium, kinetics, and thermodynamics of cobalt adsorption were also studied. The result indicated that Co adsorption had the highest consistency with Temkin isotherms while adsorption kinetics was best fitted with the pseudo-second order model. The thermodynamics of adsorption revealed that Co adsorption was spontaneous, feasible, and endothermic. Results confirmed that Saccharomyces cerevisiae possesses the potential to be used as a suitable candidate for Heavy metal removal from petrochemical industry wastewater.
