In this study, we investigated the surface properties of raw wheat bran (R-WB) and wheat bran treated with Pectinase PL (P-WB) to evaluating its efficacy for removal of cadmium from waste water. The concentration of cadmium ions adsorbed by them was evaluated. The concentration of carboxyl groups of R-WB (3.56 mmol/g) was greater than that of P-WB (2.11 mmol/g), which indicated that the pectin of R-WB was broken down, resulting in a decrease in the concentration of carboxyl groups due to the enzyme treatment. From the scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of P-WB, the pores were newly generated with enzyme treatment. The concentration of cadmium ions adsorbed onto R-WB was greater than that of cadmium ions adsorbed onto P-WB. These results show that the adsorption mechanism of cadmium ions onto R-WB and P-WB depends on the carboxyl groups of pectin.
在本研究中,我们研究了生麦麸(R-WB)和用果胶酶PL处理的麦麸(P-WB)的表面性质,以评估其从废水中去除镉的效果。评估了它们吸附的镉离子浓度。R-WB的羧基浓度(3.56 mmol/g)高于P-WB(2.11 mmol/g),这表明R-WB的果胶被分解,由于酶处理导致羧基浓度降低。从P-WB的扫描电子显微镜(SEM)图像可以看出,酶处理后新产生了孔隙。吸附在R-WB上的镉离子浓度大于吸附在P-WB上的镉离子浓度。这些结果表明,镉离子在R-WB和P-WB上的吸附机制取决于果胶的羧基。
