Development of a Solar Energy-Based Prototype, CyanoClean, for Arsenic Removal from Groundwater Using Cyanobacterial Consortium
Water Conservation Science and Engineering(2024)
Abstract
A cost-effective acrylic prototype, called CyanoClean, was developed for the growth of cyanobacterial consortium (Oscillatoria, Phormidium, and Gloeotrichia) and for removing arsenic (As) from water. The growth conditions for cyanobacterial growth were optimized by analyzing the increase in biomass (mg d−1). The optimum conditions for cyanobacteria growth were pH, 7.6; initial cyanobacterial biomass, 10 g L−1; arsenite [As(III)], 400 µΜ (30,000 µg L−1); and arsenate [As(V)], 600 µM (45,000 µg L−1). The concentration- and duration-dependent experiments were conducted in CyanoClean to examine the As removal potential of the consortium. The results demonstrated As removal to be in the range of 39–69
