Abstract
In this study, living algae Didymogenes palatina XR was cultured in high-phosphorus medium for efficient Cd2+ immobilization from diluted wastewater solution. Algae cultivated from different phosphorus concentration medium was used to investigate its production and adsorption performances of Cd2+. This study showed that microalgae is sensitive to low concentration of heavy metal Cd, and different concentrations of phosphorus culture could regulate the surface phosphorus loading of microalgae to enhance its adsorption ability of Cd2+. The Cd2+ was further immobilized with the algae surface phosphorus group, such as PO43−, HPO4−, forming metallic mineral Cd-phosphate.
