Heavy metal pollution, particularly copper contamination, threatens the ecological environment and human survival. In response to this pressing environmental issue, the development of innovative remediation strategies has become imperative. Bioremediation technology is characterized by remarkable advantages, including its ecological friendliness, cost-effectiveness, and operational efficiency. In our previous research, Rossellomorea sp. ZC255 demonstrated substantial potential for environmental bioremediation applications. This study investigated the removal characteristics and underlying mechanism of strain ZC255 and revealed that the maximum removal capacity was 253.4 mg/g biomass under the optimal conditions (pH 7.0, 28 °:C, and 2% inoculum). The assessment of the biosorption process followed pseudo-second-order kinetics, while the adsorption isotherm may fit well with both the Langmuir and Freundlich models. Cell surface alterations on the Cu(II)-treated biomass were observed through scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Cu(II) binding functional groups were determined via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. Simultaneously, the genomic analysis of strain ZC255 identified multiple genes potentially involved in heavy metal resistance, transport, and metabolic processes. These studies highlight the significance of strain ZC255 in the context of environmental heavy metal bioremediation research and provide a basis for using strain ZC255 as a copper removal biosorbent.
