Yeast extract as a double-edged sword in microbial induced carbonate precipitation for copper remediation: Unraveling the nutrient - ligand dilemma
Microbial-induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a promising strategy for heavy metal remediation, yet the role of organic nutrients in modulating metal sequestration remains underexplored. This study systematically investigates the dual functionality of yeast extract (YE) in MICP for copper (Cu²⁺) removal, focusing on its interplay as a nutrient source and a competing ligand. A highly ureolytic and Cu²⁺-tolerant strain, Lysinibacillus xylanilyticus SX1, isolated from copper tailings, was employed to evaluate YE's concentration-dependent effects. Results revealed that YE (0–2.0 g/L) enhanced SX1 growth and Cu²⁺ tolerance, while 3.0 g/L inhibited growth due to nutrient imbalance. Paradoxically, Cu²⁺ removal efficiency inversely correlated with YE concentration, declining from 62.8 % (1.0 g/L YE) to 6.8 % (3.0 g/L YE). Mineralogical analyses (XRD, FT-IR, XPS) identified Cu₂(OH)₂CO₃ precipitation as the dominant mechanism at 1.0–2.0 g/L YE, whereas adsorption prevailed at 3.0 g/L YE. Competitive ligand exchange-adsorptive cathodic stripping voltammetry (CLE-ACSV) and UV–vis spectroscopy confirmed strong Cu²⁺-YE coordination (K′CuYE = 1.2651 × 10 ¹⁰ - 1.78238 × 10 ¹⁰), which hindered carbonate mineralization. These findings highlight a critical trade-off between microbial viability and Cu²⁺ immobilization efficacy, emphasizing the necessity to optimize organic nutrient levels in MICP systems.
期刊介绍:
The Process Safety and Environmental Protection (PSEP) journal is a leading international publication that focuses on the publication of high-quality, original research papers in the field of engineering, specifically those related to the safety of industrial processes and environmental protection. The journal encourages submissions that present new developments in safety and environmental aspects, particularly those that show how research findings can be applied in process engineering design and practice.
PSEP is particularly interested in research that brings fresh perspectives to established engineering principles, identifies unsolved problems, or suggests directions for future research. The journal also values contributions that push the boundaries of traditional engineering and welcomes multidisciplinary papers.
PSEP's articles are abstracted and indexed by a range of databases and services, which helps to ensure that the journal's research is accessible and recognized in the academic and professional communities. These databases include ANTE, Chemical Abstracts, Chemical Hazards in Industry, Current Contents, Elsevier Engineering Information database, Pascal Francis, Web of Science, Scopus, Engineering Information Database EnCompass LIT (Elsevier), and INSPEC. This wide coverage facilitates the dissemination of the journal's content to a global audience interested in process safety and environmental engineering.
