The biodegradation kinetics of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) by culture (Culture M) acclimated to mixture of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) and 2,4-DCP and the culture (Culture 4) acclimated to 4-CP only were investigated in aerobic batch reactors. Also, pure strains isolated from mixed cultures were searched for their ability towards the biodegradation of 2,4-DCP. Culture 4 was able to completely degrade 2,4-DCP up to 80 mg/L within 30 h and removal efficiency dropped to 21% upon increasing initial concentration to 108.8 mg/L. When the Culture M was used, complete degradation of 2,4-DCP in the range of 12.5-104.4 mg/L was attained. A linear relationship between time required for complete degradation and initial 2,4-DCP concentrations was observed for both mixed cultures. It was observed that the Haldane equation can be used to predict specific degradation rate (SDR) (R(2)>0.99) as a function of initial 2,4-DCP concentrations and it adequately describes 2,4-DCP concentration profiles. Both of the mixed cultures settled well, which is important to maintain good removal efficiency for longer periods of time for real full-scale applications. Although the pure strains isolated from mixed cultures were found to have higher SDR of 2,4-DCP compared to mixed cultures, they did not settle well under quiescent conditions.  相似文献

The biodegradation capacity of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons of petrochemical oily sludge in liquid medium by a bacterial consortium and five pure bacterial cultures was analyzed. Three bacteria isolated from petrochemical oily sludge, identified as Stenotrophomonas acidaminiphila, Bacillus megaterium and Bacillus cibi, and two bacteria isolated from a soil contaminated by petrochemical waste, identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus cereus demonstrated efficiency in oily sludge degradation when cultivated during 40 days. The bacterial consortium demonstrated an excellent oily sludge degradation capacity, reducing 90.7% of the aliphatic fraction and 51.8% of the aromatic fraction, as well as biosurfactant production capacity, achieving 39.4% reduction of surface tension of the culture medium and an emulsifying activity of 55.1%. The results indicated that the bacterial consortium has potential to be applied in bioremediation of petrochemical oily sludge contaminated environments, favoring the reduction of environmental passives and increasing industrial productivity.  相似文献

Decabromodiphenyl ether (DBDE) is a brominated flame retardant that is commonly used in many commercial products. Sorption of DBDE within a soil/water system can result in serious bioaccumulation within the ecological system and be a threat to human health. Little is known about aerobic DBDE biodegradation, and the influence of the UV light radiation on DBDE biodegradation has not been considered. This study, for the first time, isolates DBDE biodegrading aerobic mixed bacterial cultures from DBDE-contaminated soil/water systems in Taiwan. The aerobic biodegradation of DBDE as a sole carbon source in the presence of 365 nm UVA irradiation over 10 months was investigated using a clay/water system. The rate constants for DBDE degradation gave values ranging from 0.0121 to 0.0134 day−1 in the presence of UV irradiation, which were significantly higher than the 0.0092–0.0102 day−1 values obtained in complete darkness. The aerobic metabolites: 2′,3′-dihydroxy-4-bromodiphenyl ether and 2′,3′-dihydroxy-diphenyl ether were identified by GC–MS. Debromination was ascribed to UV irradiation and biodegradation by facultative aerobic bacteria in the micro-anaerobic environment of the clay/water system. The products of debromination included 12 PBDE congeners (tri- to hexa-BDEs) and their concentrations ranged from 34.28 to 83.80 mg l−1. Specific bacteria capable of degrading PBDEs and carrying out nitrification/denitrification were identified. The present findings suggest that systems using a novel combination of photolysis and biodegradation could be developed to carry out DBDE remediation in the future.  相似文献

An aerobic, continuous-flow fluidized-bed reactor was established with inoculum from activated sludge, and fed a mixture of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP), 2,3,4,6-tetrachlorophenol (TeCP) and pentachlorophenol (PCP) as the sole sources of carbon and energy for 2 years. Experiments with the enrichment were performed with material from the reactor. Later, degradation experiments were completed using pure cultures of bacteria that were isolated from suspended samples of the carrier biofilm. In batch-bottle bioassays, the reactor enrichment degraded PCP, TeCP and TCP both in mineral salts (MS) and tryptone-yeast extract-glucose (TGY) media. ortho-Methoxylated chlorophenols including 4,5-dichloroguaiacol (4,5-DCG), tetrachloroguaiacol (TeCG) and trichlorosyringol (TCS) resisted biodegradation by the enrichment both in MS and TGY media, whereas 5,6-dichlorovanillin (5,6-DCV) was readily transformed to an unidentified metabolite. Experiments with 14C labeled chlorophenols showed mineralization of 2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP) and 2,3,5-TCP to 14CO2 by the enrichment. Material from the suspended biofilm after continuous chlorophenol feeding for 2 years was inoculated onto TGY-agar plates, and showed predominantly two colony, types accounting for over 99% of the total colony counts. The two colony types, were equal in abundance. Six Gram-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, non-fermentative small rods were isolated in TGY agar media supplemented with 10 mg/l of TeCP or PCP. All isolates formed colonies in TGY plus 150 mg/l of PCP. The isolates degraded TCP and TeCP but not PCP. In mixtures of isolated bacteria the rates of chlorophenol degradation were similar to those observed with individual isolates. Three isolates were identified as Pseudomonas saccharophila and three were an unidentified species of Pseudomonas.  相似文献

Neither Flavobacterium sp. nor Pseudomonas sp. grew on a polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000 medium containing the culture filtrate of their mixed culture on PEG 6000. The two bacteria did not grow with a dialysis culture on a PEG 6000 medium. Flavobacterium sp. grew well on a dialysis culture containing a tetraethylene glycol medium supplemented with a small amount of PEG 6000 as an inducer, while poor growth of Pseudomonas sp. was observed. Three enzymes involved in the metabolism of PEG, PEG dehydrogenase, PEG-aldehyde dehydrogenase and PEG-carboxylate dehydrogenase (ether-cleaving) were present in the cells of Flavobacterium sp. The first two enzymes were not found in the cells of Pseudomonas sp. PEG 6000 was degraded neither by intact cells of Flavobacterium sp. nor by those of Pseudomonas sp., but it was degraded by their mixture. Glyoxylate, a metabolite liberated by the ether-cleaving enzyme, inhibited the growth of the mixed culture. The ether-cleaving enzyme was remarkably inhibited by glyoxylate. Glyoxylate was metabolized faster by Pseudomonas sp. than by Flavobacterium sp., and seemed to be a key material for the symbiosis.  相似文献

This article reports the biodegradation kinetics of linear alkylbenzene sulfonates (LAS) in river water. The authors used the ‘river die-away' test method and high performance liquid chromatography to monitor LAS concentrations as functions of time in a series of tests systems. Controlled variables included initial LAS concentrations and incubation temperature. The kinetic parameters computed from the experimental data demonstrated strong correlations (r2>0.99) with theoretical values computed from the kinetic model presented in this paper. The proposed model accurately predicts concentrations of non-biodegradable substrate and the maximum specific microbial growth rate.  相似文献

Enrichment experiments were carried out in continuous-flow units using a mineral medium with commercial linear alkylbenzenesulphonate (LAS) as the limiting carbon- and energy-source. The mixed bacterial culture originating from the waste water of a detergent plant consisted of five strains belonging to the genus Pseudomonas and two strains each of the genera Achromobacter and Acinetobacter. The cultivation conditions corresponding to dilution rates of 0.025-0.1 h-1 and LAS concentrations of 20–50 mg/1 were examined. During the experiments the composition of mixed cultures and the kinetics of LAS biodegradation were followed. Continuous-flow enrichment experiments resulted in the selection of six bacterial cultures with different compositions of individual species and capability to utilize LAS. From the original seven strains at lower dilution rates (0.025 and 0.05 h-1) six were selected, excluding Pseudomonas sp. 3, while at the highest dilution rate (0.1/h-1) five strains were selected after eliminating Pseudomonas sp. 5 and Achromobacter sp. 1. All enriched mixed cultures were more efficient in primary than in ultimate LAS degradation. Two of the culture strains were able to achieve primary LAS degradation ( Pseudomonas sp. 1 in mineral medium with LAS as the sole carbon- and energy-source and Acinetobacter sp. 3 in medium supplemented by yeast extract and nutrient broth).
None of the strains could degrade LAS completely, which indicates that many types of interactions based on combined metabolic attack as well as those based on provision of specific nutrients, may exist between culture members during the complete LAS bio-oxidation.  相似文献

The white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium, which generally mineralizes substituted aromatics to CO2, transformed linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) surfactants mainly at their alkyl side chain. Degradation of LAS was evidenced by a zone of clearing on LAS-containing agar plates and colorimetric analysis of liquid cultures. Disappearance of LAS was virtually complete within 10 days in low nitrogen (2.4 mM N), high nitrogen (24 mM N) and malt extract (ME) liquid media. After 5 days of incubation in ME medium, transformation of LAS was complete at concentrations4 mg l-1, but decreased at higher concentrations. The LAS degradation was not dependent on lignin peroxidases (LiPs) and manganese-dependent peroxidases (MnPs). Mineralization of14C-ring-LAS to 14CO2 by P. chrysosporium was <1% regardless of the culture conditions used. Thin layer chromatography and mass spectral analyses indicated that P. chrysosporium transformed LAS to sulfophenyl carboxylates (SPCs) through oxidative shortening of the alkyl side-chains. While LAS disappearance in the cultures was not dependent on LiPs and MnPs, transformation of the parent LAS moieties to SPCs was more extensive in low N medium that favors expression of these enzymes. The SPCs produced in LN cultures were shorter in chain-length than those produced in ME cultures. Also there was a notable shift in the relative abundance of odd and even chain length metabolites compared to the starting LAS particularly in the low N cultures suggesting the possible involvement of processes other than or in addition to-oxidation in the chain-shortening process.  相似文献

Degradation and detoxification of a mixture of persistent compounds (2-chlorophenol, phenol and m-cresol) were studied by using pure and mixed indigenous cultures in aerobic reactors. Biodegradation assays were performed in batch and continuous flow reactors. Biodegradation was evaluated by determining total phenols, ultraviolet spectrophotometry and chemical oxygen demand (COD). Microbial growth was measured by the plate count method. Scanning electronic microscopy was employed to observe the microbial community in the reactor. Detoxification was evaluated by using Daphnia magna toxicity tests. Individual compounds were degraded by pure bacteria cultures within 27 h. The mixture of 2-clorophenol (100 mgl−1), phenol (50 mgl−1) and m-cresol (50 mgl−1) was degraded by mixed bacteria cultures under batch conditions within 36 h: 99.8% of total phenols and 92.5% of COD were removed; under continuous flow conditions 99.8% of total phenols and 94.9% of COD were removed. Mineralization of phenolic compounds was assessed by gas chromatography performed at the end of the batch assays and in the effluent of the continuous-flow reactor. Toxicity was not detected in the effluent of the continuous-flow reactor.  相似文献

Glycerol is an important byproduct of bioethanol and biodiesel production processes. This study aims to evaluate its potential application in mixed culture fermentation processes to produce bulk chemicals. Two chemostat reactors were operated in parallel, one fed with glycerol and the other with glucose. Both reactors operated at a pH of 8 and a dilution rate of 0.1 h(-1). Glycerol was mainly converted into ethanol and formate. When operated under substrate limiting conditions, 60% of the substrate carbon was converted into ethanol and formate in a 1:1 ratio. This product spectrum showed sensitivity to the substrate concentration, which partly shifted towards 1,3-propanediol and acetate in a 2:1 ratio at increasing substrate concentrations. Glucose fermentation mainly generated acetate, ethanol and butyrate. At higher substrate concentrations, acetate and ethanol were the dominant products. Co-fermentations of glucose-glycerol were performed with both mixed cultures, previously cultivated on glucose and on glycerol. The product spectrum of the two experiments was very similar: the main products were ethanol and butyrate (38% and 34% of the COD converted, respectively). The product spectrum obtained for glucose and glycerol fermentation could be explained based on the general metabolic pathways found for fermentative microorganisms and on the metabolic constraints: maximization of the ATP production rate and balancing the reducing equivalents involved.  相似文献

The anaerobic biodegradation of Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate (LAS) was studied in Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket Reactors (UASB). One reactor was fed with easily degradable substrates and commercial LAS solution during a period of 3 months (Reactor 1), meanwhile a second reactor was fed with a commercial LAS solution without co-substrate (Reactor 2) during 4 months. Both reactors were operated with an organic loading rate of 4–5 mg-LAS/l*day and a hydraulic retention time of one day.The LAS biodegradation was determined by full mass balance. LAS was analysed by HPLC in the liquid phase (influent and effluent streams of the reactors) as well as in the solid phase (granular sludge used as biomass). The results indicate a high level of removal (primary biodegradation: 64–85%). Biodegradation was higher in the absence of external co-substrates than in the presence of additional sources of carbon. This indicates that the surfactant can be partially used as carbon and energy source by anaerobic bacteria. Under the operating conditions used, inhibition of the methanogenic activity or any other negative effects on the biomass due to the presence of LAS were not observed. The methanogenic activity remained high and stable throughout the experiment.  相似文献

Summary In this work we discuss the aerobic biodegradation of sodium sulfite liquor of (NaSSL) and sodium lignosulfonate (NaLS) in a firwood sulfite waste liquor by a mixed culture of microorganisms consisting of two Trichosporon yeasts and bacteria in the Arthrobacter (two species), Pseudomonas and Chromabacterium genera. Under established process parameters, the NaSSL was biodegradated in one or two stages by mixed cultures. The kinetics in each stage was studied. The optimal ratio of NaLS and sugars in the substrate for the growth of mixed culture was determined. The growth of the monocultures of the bacteria on the NaLS and the growth of the yeasts as monocultures on the NaSSL substrate were examined. UV absorption and IR spectra were employed as analytical methods to follow the microbial degradation of NaLS. The aim of this research was to study the biodegradation process and kinetics and to remove by means of mixed culture the maximum amount of organic matter from NaSSL.  相似文献

Biodegradation of sulfamethoxazole by individual and mixed bacteria   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Antibiotic compounds, like sulfamethoxazole (SMX), have become a concern in the aquatic environment due to the potential development of antibacterial resistances. Due to excretion and disposal, SMX has been frequently detected in wastewaters and surface waters. SMX removal in conventional wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) ranges from 0% to 90%, and there are opposing results regarding its biodegradability at lab scale. The objective of this research was to determine the ability of pure cultures of individual and mixed consortia of bacteria (Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas putida, Rhodococcus equi, Rhodococcus erythropolis, Rhodococcus rhodocrous, and Rhodococcus zopfii) known to exist in WWTP activated sludge to remove SMX. Results showed that R. equi alone had the greatest ability to remove SMX leading to 29% removal (with glucose) and the formation of a metabolite. Degradation pathways and metabolite structures have been proposed based on the potential enzymes produced by R. equi. When R. equi was mixed with other microorganisms, a positive synergistic effect was not observed and the maximum SMX removal achieved was 5%. This indicates that pure culture results cannot be extrapolated to mixed culture conditions, and the methodology developed here to study the biodegradability of compounds under controlled mixed culture conditions offers an alternative to conventional studies using pure bacterial cultures or inocula from activated sludge sources consisting of unknown and variable microbial populations.  相似文献

Linear alkylbenzenesulfonate (LAS) was detected in a 0–30 cm deep sediment column collected in Lake Teganuma (one of the most polluted lakes in Japan). The range of the LAS concentration in sediments was between 0.1 and 500 µg g–1 (C11-C14 homologs per dry solid) and its vertical profile showed a seasonal variation. A mathematical model, which includes a diffusion term and a biodegradation term, was used to simulate the temporal variation of LAS in the sediment column and to calculate the diffusive flux rate of LAS across the sediment/water interface. An averaged diffusion coefficient of 2.4 × 10–5 cm2 s–1 for the sediment interstitial water was obtained from sediment core samples located in Lake Teganuma. The biodegradation rate constant (0.002 d–1) of LAS in the sediment obtained from the model analysis was considerably less than that reported for LAS in anaerobic waters. These results confirm that a model describing diffusive transport and biodegradation of LAS in the sediments can simulate the temporal variation of LAS in near surface sediments. The diffusive flux rate from overlying water to bottom sediment was calculated to be between –0.20 and 0.52 (C11-C14 LAS) mg m–2 h–1 and the annual net flux rate was 0.7 g m–2 y–1.  相似文献

Three pure bacterial cultures degrading methyl t-butyl ether (MTBE) were isolated from activated sludge and fruit of the Gingko tree. They have been classified as belonging to the genuses Methylobacterium, Rhodococcus, and Arthrobacter. These cultures degraded 60 ppm MTBE in 1–2 weeks of incubation at 23–25 °C. The growth of the isolates on MTBE as sole carbon source is very slow compared with growth on nutrient-rich medium. Uniformly-labeled [14C]MTBE was used to determine 14CO2 evolution. Within 7 days of incubation, about 8% of the initial radioactivity was evolved as 14CO2. These strains also grow on t-butanol, butyl formate, isopropanol, acetone and pyruvate as carbon sources. The presence of these compounds in combination with MTBE decreased the degradation of MTBE. The cultures pregrown on pyruvate resulted in a reduction in 14CO2 evolution from [14C]MTBE. The availability of pure cultures will allow the determination of the pathway intermediates and the rate-limiting steps in the degradation of MTBE.

Some results of our studios on transformation of steroids by mixed culture fermentation are presented in this paper. Arthrobacter simplex was paired in turn with each of the following: Streptomyces roseochromogenes, Curvularia lunata, Absidia coerulea, and Aspergillus ochraceus. The steroid substrates examined for multiple transformation were 16α-hydroxy-cortexolone, 16α-hydroxy-cortexolone 16,17-acetonide, 9α-fluorohydrocortisone, 9α-fluorohydrocortisone 21-acetate, and 9α-fluorohydrocortisone 21-hemisuccinate. The effects of media, steroid substrate, and microbial interaction in a mixed culture on the induction and repression of steroid transforming enzymes were unique to each case studied. The reaction mechanism of the multiple steroid transformation was also found to vary from one mixed culture system to another. Two different reaction mechanisms were observed, namely, consecutive and parallel. In the former, one of the two enzymatic reactions always preceded the other, while in the latter, two different enzyme reactions occurred simultaneously, thereby giving rise to two different intermediates. Multiple transformation of steroids by a single step mixed culture fermentation has potential economic advantages.  相似文献
