Description:
Dead Azolla filiculoides can remove Pb^2^+,Cd^2^+, Ni^2^+ and Zn^2^+ corresponding to second-order kinetic model. The maximum adsorption capacity (Q"m"a"x) to remove these metal ions by the alkali and CaCl"2/MgCl"2/NaCl (2:1:1, molar ratio) activated Azolla from 283 to 313K was 1.431-1.272, 1.173-0.990, 1.365-1.198 and 1.291-0.981mmol/g dry biomass, respectively. Q"m"a"x to remove these heavy metals by the non-activated Azolla at the mentioned temperature range was obtained 1.131-0.977, 1.092-0.921, 1.212-0.931 and 1.103-0.923mmol/g dry biomass, respectively. In order to remove these metal ions by the activated Azolla, the enthalpy change (@DH) was -4.403, -4.495, -4.557 and -4.365kcal/mol and the entropy change (@DS) was 2.290, 1.268, 1.745 and 1.006cal/molK, respectively. While, to remove these metal ions by the non-activated Azolla, @DH was -3.685, -3.766, -3.967 and -3.731kcal/mol and @DS was 2.440, 1.265, 1.036 and 0.933cal/molK, respectively. On the other hand, the living Azolla removed these heavy metals corresponding to first-order kinetic model. It was also shown that pH, temperature and photoperiod were effective both on the rate of Azolla growth and the rate of heavy metals uptake during 10 days. It was appeared the use of Ca(NO"3)"2 increased both Azolla growth rate and the rate of heavy metals uptake while the using KNO"3 although increased Azolla growth rate but decreased the rate of heavy metals uptake.
