Gas-chromatographic analysis of the volatile compounds in the headspace of cultures inoculated with sewage sludge indicated phosphine production over a period of several days, a reaction which is clearly microbiologically mediated. The amounts of phosphine recovered from 40-mL specimens sewage sludge enrichment were in a pg-range of 5 to 100 in the presence of glucose as carbon source and phosphate as phosphorus source. Phosphine accumulation was found to be stimulated by increasing the phosphate concentration of the medium. Hypophosphite and lecithin as phosphorus sources instead of phosphate as well as mannitol and succinic acid instead of glucose as carbon sources affected the phosphine formation. 相似文献

Listeria monocytogenes was isolated from a sewage treatment plant in Baghdad, Iraq, at all stages of treatment. The treatment processes did not yield a sewage sludge cake or a final discharge free of listerias. The agricultural practice of using such sewage products as fertilizers could become a route of spreading the organism in Iraq, particularly by infecting animals that consume vegetation in fields spread with such sewage. Dewatering of sewage reduced the number of L. monocytogenes but long periods of exposure to sun would be needed to obtain a 'safe' sewage sludge cake. 相似文献

Cultural methods used to count Listeria monocytogenes in sewage sludge are laborious and time consuming, and alternative methods are needed to reduce analysis time and improve detection limits. In this study, a survey of L. monocytogenes in sewage sludge is presented with a comparative study between a cultural method and immunomagnetic separation using a ListerScreen test followed by identification of L. monocytogenes with Rapid'L.mono agar or PCR-ELISA. These two alternative methods improved the detection of L. monocytogenes in different types of sludge, irrespective of their physical and chemical characteristics. The ListerScreen method coupled with detection of L. monocytogenes on Rapid'L.mono offers the advantage of being less sophisticated than the molecular method and allows isolation of the organism, which may be useful in epidemiological studies. However, ListerScreen coupled with PCR-ELISA proved best for high-sensitivity detection of L. monocytogenes in sewage samples. 相似文献

Listeria monocytogenes was found in the sewage sludge cake which is commonly used as an agricultural fertilizer in Iraq. Soils treated with this material were contaminated with the organism. Pot and field experiment showed that crops grown on treated soil became contaminated with L. monocytogenes and when alfalfa plant was grown on farmland soil treated with sewage sludge cake, listerias were found on 10% of 50 plants sampled at harvest, but the organism was detected only in low numbers on these crops (≤ 5 cells/g). This could add to the risk to animals and man. 相似文献

When primary domestic sewage sludge was combined with settled sewage or secondary-treatment plant effluent, synergism resulted. The activity (measured by oxygen uptake, and the removal of Kjeldahl nitrogen and orthophosphate from solution) which resulted from incubating sludge together with settled sewage exceeded the sum of the activities when these components were incubated separately. A similar synergistic effect occurred with sludge and effluent. The sewage sludges were deficient in readily available nitrogen, but no shortage of phosphorus was demonstrated. The addition of ammonium and orthophosphate salts to sludge, in concentrations equivalent to those found in settled sewage and effluent, stimulated sludge oxygen uptake at least 80% as much as settled sewage or effluent. It is suggested that the synergism reflects increased microbial activity resulting from widened carbon-nitrogen and carbon-phosphorus ratios achieved by combining sludge with nutrient-rich settled sewage or effluent. 相似文献

Ten samples of sewage sludge were examined by various methods for the isolation of salmonellas using three types of enrichment broth: Muller-Kauffmann Tetrathionate Broth (MKTB), Selenite F Broth (SFB), and Brilliant Green Broth (BGB), two temperatures (37°C and 43°C) and three selective media: Deoxycholate Citrate Agar incubated aerobically (DCA), and anaerobically (DCA(N)), Brilliant Green Agar (BGA), and Bismuth Sulphite Agar (BSA). The results suggest that a combination of pre-enriched MKTB incubated at 37°C and plated on to BGA at 24 and 48 h was the best method, but when examining contaminated material such as sewage sludge, it appears unwise to rely on one single method. 相似文献

Sewage sludge cake is widely used as an agricultural fertilizer in Iraq. Listeria monocytogenes was shown to be present in small numbers in this material despite sewage treatments. In an attempt to reduce the numbers of this pathogen in this sewage end product, the survival of L. monocytogenes was monitored in a heap of sewage sludge cake stored for over 23 weeks on farm land. The organisms were reduced in numbers and eliminated to undetectable limits during 8 weeks of storage under subtropical weathering and did not recover even 2 months after disappearance. Dewatering processes seem to have some affect on the survival of the bacteria. Therefore, solar dewatering by heaping the sewage sludge cake and exposing it to sun for no less than 8 weeks is recommended to obtain a listeria-free product. 相似文献

The application of sewage sludge to agricultural land is widely used in France. To determine the impact of sludge treatments, concentrations of Listeria sp., Listeria monocytogenes and faecal indicators were monitored in five types of sludge from three sewage treatment plants in Angers (France) and its suburbs over a 1-year period. On the whole, bacteria were reduced in numbers through sludge treatments. Apart from liming, which leads to reduced levels of bacteria below detection limits, other sludge treatments did not eliminate Listeria sp. and faecal indicators. Listeria sp. and L. monocytogenes were found respectively in 87% and 73% of dewatered sludges and in 96% and 80% of sludges stored in tanks. Concentrations of L. monocytogenes, ranging from 0.15 to 20 MPN g(-1) dry matter in dewatered sludge and from 1 to 240 MPN g(-1) dry matter in sludge stored in tanks, did not show seasonal variations. Spreading of sanitised sludge onto agricultural land results in the addition of 10(6)-10(8) L. monocytogenes per hectare per year, which may contribute to the increase in the dissemination of this pathogenic species in the environment. 相似文献

One hundred and ten Listeria sp. isolates from sewage sludge were identified according to phenotypic and genotypic methods. The Listeria sp. strains isolated from five types of sludge from three sewage treatment plants in Angers (France) and the surrounding area included L. monocytogenes (55.5%), L. innocua (29.1%), L. seeligeri (13.6%) and L. welshimeri (1.8%). The majority of L. monocytogenes strains belonged to serotypes 4b, 1/2b and 1/2a. Moreover, a heteroduplex mobility assay based on the 16S rRNA sequences was tested for its ability to identify the six species of the genus Listeria. This study, performed on 283 Listeria sp. strains from human, food and sewage sludge samples, showed that all the species were distinguishable from one another. L. innocua and L. seeligeri showed respectively three and two distinct banding patterns. Within L. monocytogenes, four groups (I-IV) were defined. The majority of food and environmental isolates were clustered in group I and it is noteworthy that group IV clustered epidemiologic isolates and strains belonging to serotypes 4b, 1/2a and 1/2b. 相似文献

Effects of Sewage Sludge on Plant Community Composition in Restored Limestone Quarries 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The effects of sewage sludge, used to improve fertility of replaced soil, on vegetation were studied in limestone quarry restoration. Plant community growing in the first stages after sludge application was surveyed in six quarries of NE Spain. Areas with a mixture of sewage sludge and residual soil were compared to areas where the application consisted only of residual soil (a mixture of previous top soil and mine spoils). Sewage sludge was hypothesized to increase total biomass and cover, modifying species composition and delaying the early successional recover of the community. The results showed that both biomass and plant cover increased because of sewage sludge addition. The floristic composition was dominated by ruderal species that did not show any dependence on sewage sludge application. Convergence on similarity between sludge and control plots was not detected along a 5‐year period. Although species richness was significantly lower in sludge plots, diversity and equitability indexes did not show differences between treatments. The results did not show differences in the proportion of non‐native species. The proportion of legumes was lower in sludge plots. These results show that the plant communities resulting from the addition of sewage sludge to the soil used in limestone quarry restoration have more biomass and cover, but less number of species, and they do not show a clear trend to converge to those areas restored only with non‐amended soil. 相似文献

Two sewage treatment plants in Baghdad, Iraq, were investigated to assess the effects of the different treatment stages on the removal of Listeria monocytogenes . The bacteria were severely affected after the activation and digestion stages at both plants. A dramatic decrease in numbers of listerias after each of these two stages was noticed during the cold months (September-January). The organisms were able to survive these treatments and were present in the final effluent and even in low numbers in the sewage sludge cake. Sufficient dewatering of sewage sludge is recommended to obtain sewage free of listerias. Improvements in the isolation procedure of L. monocytogenes from such heavily contaminated material is also discussed. 相似文献

Leaching column experiments were conducted to determine the degree of mobility and the distribution of zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), and lead (Pb) because of an application of spiked sewage sludge in calcareous soils. A total of 20 leaching columns were set up for four calcareous soils. Each column was leached with one of these inflows: sewage sludge (only for two soils), spiked sewage sludge, or artificial well water (control). The columns were irrigated with spiked sewage sludge containing 8.5 mg Zn l?1, 8.5 mg Cd l?1, and 170 mg Pb l?1 and then allowed to equilibrate for 30 days. At the end of leaching experiments, soil samples from each column were divided into 18 layers, each being 1 cm down to 6 cm and 2 cm below that, and analyzed for total and extractable Zn, Cd and Pb. The fractionation of the heavy metals in the top three layers of the surface soil samples was investigated by the sequential extraction method. Spiked sewage sludge had little effect on metal mobility. In all soils, the surface soil layers (0-1 cm) of the columns receiving spiked sewage sludge had significantly higher concentrations of total Zn, Cd and Pb than control soils. Concentration of the heavy metals declined significantly with depth. The mobility of Zn was usually greater than Cd and Pb. The proportion of exchangeable heavy metals in soils receiving spiked sewage sludge was significantly higher than that found in the control columns. Sequential extraction results showed that in native soils the major proportion of Zn and Pb was associated with residual (RES) and organic matter (OM) fractions and major proportion of Cd was associated with carbonate (CARB) fraction, whereas after leaching with spiked sewage sludge, the major proportion of Zn and Pb was associated with Fe-oxcide (FEO), RES, and CARB fractions and major proportion of Cd was associated with CARB, RES and exchangeable (EXCH) fractions. Based on relative percent, Cd in the EXCH fraction was higher than Zn and Pb in soils leached with spiked sewage sludge. 相似文献

The epibenthic bacterial community at deep-ocean sewage sludge disposal site DWD-106, located approximately 106 miles (ca. 196 km) off the coast of New Jersey, was assessed for changes associated with the introduction of large amounts of sewage sludge. Mixed cultures and bacterial isolates obtained from water overlying sediment core samples collected at the deep-water (2,500 m) municipal sewage disposal site were tested for the ability to grow under in situ conditions of temperature and pressure. The responses of cultures collected at a DWD-106 station heavily impacted by sewage sludge were compared with those of samples collected from a station at the same depth which was not contaminated by sewage sludge. Significant differences were observed in the ability of mixed bacterial cultures and isolates from the two sites to grow under deep-sea pressure and temperature conditions. The levels of sludge contamination were established by enumerating Clostridium perfringens, a sewage indicator bacterium, in sediment samples from the two sites. The results of hybridization experiments in which DNAs extracted directly from the water overlying sediment core samples were used indicate that the reference site epibenthic community, the disposal site epibenthic community, and the community in a surface sludge plume share many members. Decreased culturability of reference site mixed cultures in the presence of sewage sludge was observed. Thus, the culturable portions of both the autochthonous and allochthonous bacterial communities at the disposal site may be inhibited in situ, the former by sewage sludge and the latter by high pressure and low temperature. 相似文献

城市污泥堆肥对栽培基质保水能力和有效养分的影响 总被引:28,自引:2,他引:28
盆栽试验表明 ,城市污泥堆肥不仅可以明显提高栽培基质的有效氮、磷含量 ,而且可以增强栽培基质的保水性能和植物的抗旱能力 ,但是栽培基质的萎焉点也随着其用量的增加而增高。因此 ,从保证植物水分供应的角度考虑 ,虽然可以大量地使用城市污泥堆肥 ,但是其用量并不是越多越好 ;当用量超过 75 %时 ,继续增加城市污泥堆肥的比例 ,则植物的吸水能力反而会略有下降。从养分供应和保水性能等角度综合考虑 ,采用经过堆肥化处理的城市污泥作为植物栽培基质 ,是城市污泥资源化和无害化的可行途径 相似文献

AIMS: Listeria monocytogenes strains isolated in the same geographical area from sewage sludge and from patients presenting with listeriosis were compared. METHODS AND RESULTS: All isolates were typed by serotyping, phage typing and SmaI/ApaI pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Among the sludge isolates (n=32), 22 subtypes could be distinguished by the combination of all typing methods. The human isolates (n=11) were distributed into 10 subtypes which clearly differed from those observed among sludge isolates, except for one cluster formed by two related human isolates which showed high similarity in PFGE patterns (SmaI: 92%; ApaI: 89.5%) with one sludge isolate. CONCLUSION: These results suggest the existence of an epidemiological link between sludge and human isolates, but they may also be reflecting the distribution of L. monocytogenes types within the environment. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Sludge and human L. monocytogenes may be related but further epidemiological studies are necessary to elucidate this point. 相似文献
