Abstract

This study assessed the tolerance of Perenniporia subtephropora and evaluated the potential of its living mycelia as a biosorbent for liquid media contaminated with heavy metals. Isolates were identified using morphological and molecular techniques. Biosorption was performed based on initial metal concentrations (0, 50, 150, and 450 mg/L), pH changes (4.5, 7.0, and 8.0), and contact duration (0, 24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 hours). P. subtephropora was classified as highly tolerant to Cr, Ni, As, and Fe; moderately tolerant to Cu, Zn, and Pb; and less tolerant to Mn. Biosorption increased with increasing metal concentration, and no biosorption occurred at a metal concentration of 0 mg/L. The percentage removal efficiencies varied significantly with respect to the lowest efficiency, with some metals (Pb, Fe, Ni, Mn, and As) having the lowest removal efficiencies at the minimum pH (pH 4.5), while others (Cu, Zn, and Cr) having the lowest values at neutral pH (pH 7.0). The maximum removal percentages for all metals were at the highest pH (pH 8.0). P. subtephropora showed a time-dependent increase in biosorption ability. This study concluded that fungal mycelia proved to be a low-cost biosorbent with high potential for the removal of various metals from aqueous solutions.
