What is Phycocyanin Beads for Cadmium Removal about?

This document describes a study that immobilized phycocyanin (PC), a pigment protein extracted from Spirulina platensis, on rice hull nanosilica to create a biosorbent material for removing cadmium ions from contaminated water. The immobilized PC was then incorporated into calcium-alginate beads for easy separation. Batch experiments showed the material had 99.80% cadmium adsorption efficiency and a maximum adsorption capacity of 19.72 mg/g. The study developed a low-cost, effective method for remediating c
