不同富集和分离培养条件下的含酚废水处理生物膜微生物群落结构与活性比较分析

采用Biolog和变性梯度凝胶电泳(DGGE)技术研究了不同苯酚浓度培养对焦化废水处理厂反硝化池生物膜样品中微生物群落结构和代谢类型的影响。DGGE结果表明, 不同浓度苯酚和不同培养方式富集培养后, 细菌16S rDNA的部分条带分布谱形发生改变, 还有部分条带只受到了苯酚浓度变化的影响; 富集培养过程中由于碳源组成相对焦化废水简单, DGGE条带所代表的优势微生物多样性有所降低。Biolog试验结果表明, 生物膜样本的细菌群落代谢能力最强; 低浓度苯酚富集后的样品能利用的底物碳源类型最丰富。对Biolog试验结果的主成分分析显示, 相同浓度苯酚富集培养后的细菌群落代谢功能多样性相似, 但从DGGE结果看出其结构组成产生了变化。富集培养使样品微生物群落的代谢功能发生改变, 低浓度的苯酚富集增加了群落中微生物的代谢类型。而不同条件获得的分离物其苯酚降解能力的初步分析也表明, 富集与分离条件对苯酚降解菌的分离能力和得到的菌株特性具有差别。

Ethylene removal efficiency and bacterial community diversity of a natural zeolite biofilter

To establish an economical and environmentally friendly technology for ethylene removal from horticultural facilities and industrial point sources, a bench-scale natural zeolite biofiltration system was developed in this study. The system was evaluated for its performance in removing ethylene from an artificially contaminated air stream and characterized for its bacterial diversity under varied ethylene concentrations, and in different spatial stages of the filter. The biofilter enabled to approximately 100% remove ethylene at loading rates of 0.26-3.76 g m⁻³ h⁻¹ when operated with inoculum containing enriched ethylene-degrading bacteria. The bacterial diversity and abundance varied with the height of the biofilter. Moreover, the occurrence and predominance of specific bacterial species varied with the concentrations of ethylene introduced into the biofilter, as observed by PCR-DGGE methods. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the biofilter system supported a diverse community of ethylene-degrading bacteria, with high similarity to species in the classes Betaproteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria, Bacilli, and Actinobacteria.

Effects of UV pretreatment on microbial community structure and metabolic characteristics in a subsequent biofilter treating gaseous chlorobenzene

To provide insight into effects of UV pretreatment on microorganisms in subsequent biofilters, the changes of microbial community structure and metabolic characteristics of biofilters with (UV–BF) and without (BF) UV pretreatment were studied. The respiratory quinone and BIOLOG methods were used to analyze microbial community structure and metabolic characteristics, respectively. The results indicated the quinone profiles, the species of dominant quinone and its molar fraction of the biofilm in both biofilters showed different behaviors. Ubiquinones-8 and menaquinone-9(H₂) was the dominant quinones in BF and UV–BF processes, respectively. The dissimilarity index of two biofilters markedly increased to nearly 60 after turning on the UV lamp. The microbial samples from UV–BF process showed higher metabolic activities of 0.040 cm⁻¹ h⁻¹ than 0.028 cm⁻¹ h⁻¹ in BF process. Moreover, the microorganisms in both biofilters demonstrated distinct metabolic characteristics. Further, the performance of biofilters showed good correlation with microbial community structure and metabolic characteristics.

Microbial community structure and dynamics in a mixotrophic nitrogen removal process using recycled spent caustic under different loading conditions

A laboratory-scale Bardenpho process was established to investigate the proper nitrogen loading rate (NLR) when modified spent caustic (MSC) is applied as electron donor and alkalinity source for denitrification. MSC injection induced autotrophic nitrogen removal with sulfur as electron donor and heterotrophic denitrification. The nitrogen removal rate (NRR) did not increase proportionally to NLR. Based on the total nitrogen concentration in the effluent observed in the trials with MSC, the NLR in the influent should not exceed 0.15 kg N/m³ d in order to satisfy water quality regulations. Microbial communities in the anoxic reactors were characterized by pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA gene sequences amplified by the polymerase chain reaction of DNA extracted from sludge samples. Microbial diversity was lower as MSC dosage was increased, and the injection of MSC caused an increase in SOB belonging to the genus Thiobacillus which is responsible for denitrification using sulfur.     

Performance evaluation and microbial community analysis of the composite filler micro-embedded with Pseudomonas putida for the biodegradation of toluene

The composite filler micro-embedded with Pseudomonas putida (P. putida) was prepared and the biodegradation performance of the filler was evaluated in a biofilter. Five phases were set up to evaluate the performance of the biofilter under different toluene inlet loadings and transient shock loadings. In particular, the microbial community structure in the biofilms and fillers was measured by sequence analysis of the 16S rRNA gene. The results show that the biofilter packed with the composite fillers was suitable for the biodegradation of toluene. The biofilter could start up quickly with high removal efficiency (RE), and remain above 90 % RE when the empty bed residence time (EBRT) was 18 s and the inlet loading rates were not higher than 41.4 g/(m³·h). Moreover, the biofilter could tolerate substantial transient shock loadings. The high removal efficiency and elimination capacity contributed to rich bacterial communities for the efficient degradation of toluene. The dominant microbial communities at the phylum level were mainly Firmicutes, Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria. It is noteworthy that the abundance of Bacteroidetes at phylum level and Chungangia and Stenotrophomonas at genus level increased significantly during the re-start period.     

Microbial community composition and function in wastewater treatment plants

Biological wastewater treatment has been applied for more than a century to ameliorate anthropogenic damage to the environment. But only during the last decade the use of molecular tools allowed to accurately determine the composition, and dynamics of activated sludge and biofilm microbial communities. Novel, in many cases yet not cultured bacteria were identified to be responsible for filamentous bulking and foaming as well as phosphorus and nitrogen removal in these systems. Now, methods are developed to infer the in situ physiology of these bacteria. Here we provide an overview of what is currently known about the identity and physiology of some of the microbial key players in activated sludge and biofilm systems. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
