Microorganisms can be the important biosorbents for heavy metal remediation of contaminated soils or wastewater. A BJKD1 strain isolated from coal gangue piles was identified as a member of the Paecilomyces sp., which can tolerate to 3200 mg/L Cd2+. Favorable condition for BJKD1 growth was at pH 4.0-9.0. The presence of heavy metals, such as 36 mmol/L Cd2+, 1 mmol/L Cu2+, 80 mmol/L Zn2+, 7 mmol/L Ni2+ and 100 mmol/L Mn2+, retarded the growth of BJKD1, however, BJKD1 showed more tolerance for Mn2+. The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD ) and Catalase (CAT ) in BJKD1 was increased under high metals concentration, indicated BJKD1 has the potential for biological repair of heavy metal pollution in coal gangue piles.

The aim of this paper was the application of statistical analysis including principal component analysis to evaluate heavy metal pollution obtained by moss technique in the air of Ha Noi and its surrounding areas and to evaluate potential pollution sources. The concentrations of 33 heavy metal elements in 27 samples of Barbula Indica moss in the investigated region collected in December of 2016 in the investigated area have been examined using multivariate statistical analysis. Five factors explaining 80% of the total variance were identified and their potential sources have been discussed.
