Title

REMEDIATION OF CONTAMINATED SOIL (BY HEAVY METAL IONS) USING SAPONIN OBTAINED FROM SAPINDUS MUKOROSSI: A REVIEW

Abstract

Increasing industrial activity around the world has left behind large number of contaminants such as heavy metals which can easily get into food chain and bio-cumulate in tissues of living organism with detrimental effect. Requirement of today ‘s era is to remove these contaminants (heavy metals) from the soil as they results in nausea, vomiting, epigastric pain, lethargy, and fatigue(particularly zinc)[1]. tumour in some cases. This study explores the possible application of a biodegradable plant-based surfactant saponin obtained from Sapindus mukorossi or soapnut, for washing zinc[4], arsenic[3], phenanthrene[3], cadmium from contaminated soil. . It was observed that soapnut was more efficient than SDS due to its lower pH. Soapnut solution removed more than 73% zinc while SDS solution could only wash out up to 31% of the total zinc from the soil under similar experimental conditions[4]. Analysis of the FT-IR data suggested that saponin did not interact chemically with zinc, offering an option for reusing the surfactant after precipitating the zinc by using NaOH at pH of 10.3. Damage to the soil was found to be negligible. Soapnut CGAs removed more than 70% arsenic[2]. saponin has a removal rate of 87.7% and 76.2% of cadmium and phenanthrene, respectively, from the combined contaminated soil.[3]
