Allium속의 Cd 및 Zn 흡착력

Studies on the Adsorption Capacity of Cd and Zn by Genus Allium Powder in aqueous solution

The study was performed under the various conditions, such as the edible parts and particle sizes of Allium, the concentrations, the temperatures, and the pH of heavy metal solutions to investigate their adsorption capacity of heavy metals by genus Allium. The adsorption amount of Cd by Allium in the aqueous solution was apparently higher than that of Zn by them. The larger the particle size of welsh onion and shallot was, the higher the adsorption of Cd was. But the adsorption ratio was not different. As the temperature increased, the amount of heavy metal adsorption increased in general, but the adsorption of Cd by wild garlic, Zn by garlic decreased. Adsorption of Cd and Zn to Allium was not affected by the various pH. The correlation between the amount of components in edible putts of Allium and that of adsorption of heavy metals was significantly high in amino acids containing sulfhydryl radical (-SH) and vitamin B2.
