Abstract

Rapid industrialization has led to the pollution of soil and water by various types of contaminants. Heavy metals (HMs) are considered the most reactive toxic contaminants, even at low concentrations, which cause health problems through accumulation in the food chain and water. Remediation using conventional methods, including physical and chemical techniques, is a costly treatment process and generates toxic by-products, which may negatively affect the surrounding environment. Therefore, biosorption has attracted significant research interest in the recent decades. In contrast to existing methods, bacterial biomass offers a potential alternative for recovering toxic/persistent HMs from the environment through different mechanisms for metal ion uptake. This review provides an outlook of the advantages and disadvantages of the current bioremediation technologies and describes bacterial groups, especially extremophiles with biosorbent potential for heavy metal removal with relevant examples and perspectives.

  • Biosorption, bioaccumulation, and bioprecipitation are the predominant mechanisms employed by the genus Bacillus for the extraction of heavy metals.

    “Biosorption, bioaccumulation, and bioprecipitation are the predominant mechanisms employed by the genus Bacillus for the extraction of heavy metals [280].”

    From Harnessing bacterial consortia for effective bioremediation: targeted removal of heavy metals, hydrocarbons, and persistent pollutants (2025) · cites this paper as [280]

    Section 2 identifies Bacillus among bacteria reported to biosorb heavy metals, and §2.2 describes bioaccumulation as a bacterial metal-removal mechanism. The paper also discusses precipitation, but the cited passages do not establish that bioaccumulation and bioprecipitation are predominant mechanisms specifically for Bacillus. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
