Bioremoval of Aqueous Lead Using Lemna Minor

The aquatic plant Lemna minor (duckweed) was examined for its ability to sorb soluble lead from water under laboratory conditions. The use of biomass as a sorption medium provides a simple alternative separation technology. Laboratory-scale (700-mL) batch reactors containing soil-based sediments were used to expose L. minor to concentrations of 0.0, 5.0, and 10.0 mg/L of lead for 7 d. Overall removal amounts of 95% were observed, with 85% removal occurring within the first day. A sorption process model was developed based on a mass balance and a power law rate of sorption equation.
