Effect of different gas environments on bench-scale solid state fermentation of oat straw by white-rot fungi

Three white-rot fungi, Phanerochaete chrysosporium, Polyporus tulipiferae, and Polyporus sp. A336 were grown on 100-g amounts of chopped oat straw in gassed 4.5 L (diameter 16 cm, height 23 cm) solid-state reactors for two weeks. The different gas atmospheres were regulated by (1) air diffusion through foam plugs, (2) intermittent or continuous air flow, (3) intermittent oxygen, 50 or 100% continuous oxygen flow, and (4) continuous 10% carbon dioxide in oxygen flow. The fermented straw was analyzed for total weight loss, Klason lignin loss, and enzymatic (cellulase) hydrolysis. P. chrysosporium grown on straw in continuous oxygen at 35 degrees C caused a 41% weight loss and 33.5% hydrolysis was obtained when the pretreated straw was hydrolyzed with cellulase enzyme. P. tulipiferae caused a 27% weight loss and 34.3% cellulase hydrolysis in the straw at 30 degrees C. Polyporus sp. A336 selectively degraded lignin of the straw and under intermittent oxygen resulted in an 18% weight loss and 33.6% cellulase hydrolysis at 35 degrees C. When the straw was supplemented with 10% xylose (straw basis) and was continuously gassed with 50% oxygen, Polyporus sp. A336 produced a 14.5% weight loss and 38.7% cellulase hydrolysis. Oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange rates were measured for some of these bench-scale fermentations.     

Biodegradation of wood in crude oil-polluted soil

A field investigation (April–November) in Nigeria showed that biodegradation of obeche (Triplochiton scleroxylon) wood blocks was initially retarded in crude oil-contaminated soil but later became enhanced as indicated by loss of compression resistance. Further indication of this pattern was the detection of soft-rot cavities and basidiomycete fungi after 2–3 months exposure when compared to control blocks in uncontaminated soil. Laboratory tests with Pleurotus sp., Trametes sp., Gloeophyllum sp. (basidiomycetes) and Chaetomium sp. (soft-rot fungus) confirmed that degradation of crude oil-coated obeche blocks was markedly retarded without the presence of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria. The filtrate of hydrocarbon-degrading Pseudomonas sp. grown in mineral salt/crude oil medium for 3–4 weeks supported growth of the test fungi better than in carboxymethyl cellulose medium but less than in potato dextrose broth. Similarly, wood blocks immersed in the filtrate became significantly more susceptible to fungal degradation. Pseudomonas sp. from stationary phase growth in crude oil medium depleted residual sugar in basidiomycete-degraded sawdust with a concomitant marked increase in its population. It may be concluded that readily metabolizable products of crude oil degradation by soil organisms and the removal of residual sugar which may have prevented catabolite repression of cellulases, culminated in increased attack on the wood by soil-borne wood-decomposing organisms.     

Identification of metabolites from phenanthrene oxidation by phenoloxidases and dioxygenases of Polyporus sp. S133

Phenanthrene degradation by Polyporus sp. S133, a new phenanthrene-degrading strain, was investigated in this work. The analysis of degradation was performed by calculation of the remaining phenanthrene by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. When cells were grown in phenanthrene culture after 92 h, all but 200 and 250 mg/l of the phenanthrene had been degraded. New metabolic pathways of phenanthrene and a better understanding of the phenoloxidases and dioxygenase mechanism involved in degradation of phenanthrene were explored in this research. The mechanism of degradation was determined through identification of the several metabolites; 9,10-phenanthrenequinone, 2,2'-diphenic acid, salicylic acid, and catechol. 9,10-Oxidation and ring cleavage to give 9,10-phenanthrenequinone is the major fate of phenanthrene in ligninolytic Polyporus sp. S133. The identification of 2,2'-diphenic acid in culture extracts indicates that phenanthrene was initially attacked through dioxigenation at C9 and C10 to give cis-9,10-dihydrodiol. Dehydrogenation of phenanthrene-cis-9,10-dihydrodiol to produce the corresponding diol, followed by ortho-cleavage of the oxygenated ring, produced 2,2'-diphenic acid. Several enzymes (manganese peroxidase, lignin peroxidase, laccase, 1,2-dioxygenase, and 2,3-dioxygenase) produced by Polyporus sp. S133 was detected during the incubation. The highest level of activity was shown at 92 h of culture.     

Selection of functional consortium for crude oil-contaminated soil remediation

Microorganisms with high oil-degrading performance are essential for bioremediation of soil contaminated with crude oil. A positive end dilution method was employed for the selection of crude oil-degrading functional consortium from contaminated soil. The selected consortium was consisted of Rhizobiales sp., Pseudomonas sp., Brucella sp., Bacillus sp., Rhodococcus sp., Microbacterium sp. and Roseomonas sp. and removed nearly 52.1% of crude oil at initial concentration of 10,000 mg l⁻¹ at 30 °C within 7 days, with removal of aliphatic hydrocarbons by 71.4% and aromatic hydrocarbons by 36.0%, respectively. The effectiveness of the consortium for bioaugmentation was confirmed with microcosm test by contaminated soil (1.0 kg) from Karemary Oilfield, China. The removal efficiency of crude oil was enhanced to >50% in microcosms with the consortium compared with 8-13% or lower in controls over a 60 day period. The crude oil removal reaction was probably first order reaction and the rate was greatly enhanced by bioaugmentation. Supplementation of nitrogen and phosphate sources had limited effect on the oil removal in the tested soil.     

石油集输系统中微生物群落结构研究

采用16SrRNA基因克隆一变性梯度凝胶电泳分析方法研究了石油集输系统原油和油田产水中的微生物群落结构。变性梯度凝胶电泳图谱显示：油田产水中微生物群落远比原油中的菌群丰富。所有的油田水样和原油样本中都存在与Ochrobactrum sp．和Stenotrophomonas sp．相关的细菌;原油样本中检测出与Burkholderia sp．、Brevundimonas sp．和Propionibacterium sp．相关的细菌,而这些细菌在油田水样中未检出;在油田水样中检出与Hippea sp．、Acidovorax sp．、Arcobacter sp．、Pseudomonas sp．、Thiomicrospira sp．、Brevibacterium sp．、Tissierella sp．和Peptostreptococcus sp．相关的细菌,而这些细菌在原油样本中未检出。用古细菌特异性引物进行检测发现在油田水样中存在与Methanomicrobials和Methanosarcinales相关的产甲烷菌,而这些细菌在原油样本中未检出。在石油集输过程中,油田水样和原油中微生物群落的相似性分别为83．3％和88．2％,说明微生物群落结构较为稳定。     

Biodegradation of Aliphatic and Aromatic Fractions of Heavy Crude Oil-Contaminated Soil: A Pilot Study

Crude oil is one of the major contaminants of soil and water. Biodegradation is a good option for reducing oil contamination in soil. Soil fertilizers can help the microorganisms biodegrade oil with higher efficiency. In this study, the effect of chemical fertilizers and animal manure on crude oil reduction was compared and the reduction of the aliphatic and aromatic fractions was studied during 8 months. The higher reduction of crude oil (54%) was observed in tests containing chemical fertilizers and wood chips, followed by those containing animal manure (46%). The reduction of aliphatic and aromatic fractions was also higher in fertilized tests. Our results showed that in the experiments with mixed chemical fertilizers and wood chips, the reduction of crude oil and its aliphatic and aromatic fractions was higher than the experiments with only chemical fertilizers and those with animal manure. The reductions in the experiments with animal manure, however, were higher than those with only chemical fertilizers.     

Degradation of 14C-labelled poplar wood lignin by selected white-rot fungi

Summary Of eight white-rot fungi examined, seven fungi grew on nitrogen-limited poplar wood meal medium and degraded ¹⁴C-lignin in wood meal to ¹⁴CO₂. Increased oxygen enhanced both the rate and extent of degradation. However, whereas Pleurotus ostreatus, Pycnoporus cinnabarinus 115 and Pycnoporus cinnabarinus A-360 degraded 12–17% of ¹⁴C-(U)-lignin of poplar wood to ¹⁴CO₂ also in an air atmosphere, Sporotrichum pulverulentum, Phlebia radiata 79 and Phanerochaete sordida 37 degraded only 1–5% under these conditions. Addition of cellulose and glucose to the poplar wood medium stimulated degradation of ¹⁴C-(RING)-lignin of poplar wood by Phlebia radiata 79 but repressed degradation by Polyporus versicolor and Pleurotus ostreatus. Cellulose added to the wood meal medium had no effect on the degradation of lignin by Phanerochaete sordida 37 and Sporotrichum pulverulentum but glucose slightly repressed lignin degradation by these fungi. Those white-rot fungi which were considered as preferentially lignin attacking fungi could degrade ¹⁴C-(RING)-lignin of poplar wood efficiently under 100% oxygen. They did not require an extra energy source in addition to wood meal polysaccharides for rapid ring cleavage and they degraded up to 50–60% of the ¹⁴C-lignin to ¹⁴CO₂ in 6–7 weeks at a maximum rate of 3–4% per day.These results were reported in part at the Journées Internationales d'Etudes du Groupe Polyphenols, 29. 9.–1. 10. 1982, Université Paul Sabatier, Toulouse, France     

Towards efficient crude oil degradation by a mixed bacterial consortium

A laboratory study was undertaken to assess the optimal conditions for biodegradation of Bombay High (BH) crude oil. Among 130 oil degrading bacterial cultures isolated from oil contaminated soil samples, Micrococcus sp. GS2-22, Corynebacterium sp. GS5-66, Flavobacterium sp. DS5-73, Bacillus sp. DS6-86 and Pseudomonas sp. DS10-129 were selected for the study based on the efficiency of crude oil utilisation. A mixed bacterial consortium prepared using the above strains was also used. Individual bacterial cultures showed less growth and degradation than did the mixed bacterial consortium. At 1% crude oil concentration, the mixed bacterial consortium degraded a maximum of 78% of BH crude oil. This was followed by 66% by Pseudomonas sp. DS10-129, 59% by Bacillus sp. DS6-86, 49% by Micrococcus sp. GS2-22, 43% by Corynebacterium sp. GS5-66 and 41% by Flavobacterium sp. DS5-73. The percentage of degradation by the mixed bacterial consortium decreased from 78% to 52% as the concentration of crude oil was increased from 1% to 10%. Temperature of 30 degrees C and pH 7.5 were found to be optima for maximum biodegradation.     

News & Notes: Bioremediation of Crude Oil Contamination with Acinetobacter sp. A3

Acinetobacter sp. A3 is able to extensively degrade Bombay High Crude Oil (BHCO) and utilize it as the sole source of carbon. A total degradation of 70% BHCO was noted by the end of 120 h of growth of Acinetobacter sp. A3 under shake flask condition, 60% of which was due to biodegradation. In crude oil-contaminated soil (5%) amended with Acinetobacter sp. A3, there was both an increase in colony-forming units (CFU) and crude oil degradation. This is in contrast to a decrease in CFU of the indigenous microorganisms and lower degradation in unamended soil within the same 30-day period. Also, Acinetobacter sp. A3-treated soil permitted better germination of Mung beans (Phaseolus aureus) and growth as evidenced by better length and weight of the plants and chlorophyll content of its leaves, which was attributed to the reduction in phytotoxicity of the crude oil owing to its degradation. This crude oil degradative capability of Acinetobacter sp. A3 could be exploited for bioremediation purposes. Received: 16 December 1996 / Accepted: 10 February 1997     

Isolation and characterization of Xanthobacter polyaromaticivorans sp. nov. 127W that degrades polycyclic and heterocyclic aromatic compounds under extremely low oxygen conditions

Two bacterial strains, 127W and T102, were isolated from anoxic crude oil tank sludge as effective degraders of dibenzothiophene (DBT), a model sulfur containing heterocyclic aromatic compound in crude oil. Strain 127W was more tolerant to oxygen limitation than T102 and was capable of degrading two- and three-ring polycyclic and heterocyclic aromatic compounds under both aerobic and low oxygen conditions. Strain 127W degraded 0.082, 0.055, and 0.064 mM of DBT, naphthalene, and anthracene, respectively, in one week with dissolved oxygen < or =0.2ppm (0.006 mM). Degradation by 127W cell-free extracts for DBT was increased by addition of sodium hydrogencarbonate under this oxygen concentration. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence and physiological characteristics indicate that the strains 127W and T102 belong to new species of the genus Xanthobacter and Pseudomonas stutzeri, respectively. We propose X. polyaromaticivorans sp. nov. 127W.     

Bacterial communities in a crude oil gathering and transferring system (China)

Bacterial communities in crude oil and oil field production water samples from an oil gathering and transferring system in Changqing Oil field in China were investigated by 16S rRNA denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) analysis followed by gene cloning and sequencing. DGGE profiles showed that bacterial communities are far more rich in the water samples than that in the crude oil samples, and that bacteria related to Ochrobactrum sp. and Stenotrophomonas sp. were detected in all crude oil and oil field water samples. Bacteria related to Burkholderia sp., Brevundimonas sp., and Propionibacterium sp. were detected in the crude oil samples but not in water samples. Bacteria related to Hippea sp., Acidovorax sp., Arcobacter sp., Pseudomonas sp., Thiomicrospira sp., Brevibacterium sp., Tissierella sp. and Peptostreptococcus sp. were detected in the water samples but not in crude oil samples. Using an archaea-specific primer set, methanogens related to Methanomicrobials and Methanosarcinales were found in water samples but not in crude oil samples. The comparability of the microbial communities in the water and crude oil phase during the period of oil gathering and transferring process was 83.3% and 88.2%, respectively, indicating a stable structure of the microbial communities.     

Enhanced haloarchaeal oil removal in hypersaline environments via organic nitrogen fertilization and illumination

Hypersaline soil and pond water samples were mixed with 3?% crude oil, some samples were autoclaved to serve as sterile controls; experimental samples were not sterilized. After 6-week incubation at 40?°C under light/dark cycles, the soil microflora consumed 66?%, and after 4?weeks the pond water microflora consumed 63?% of the crude oil. Soil samples treated with 3?% casaminoacids lost 89?% of their oil after 6?weeks and water samples lost 86?% after 4?weeks. Samples treated with casaminoacids and antibiotics that selectively inhibited bacteria, lost even more oil, up to 94?%. Soil-water mixtures incubated under continuous illumination lost double as much more oil than samples incubated in the dark. The soil-water mixture at time zero contained 1.3?×?10(4) CFU?g(-1) of hydrocarbon-utilizing microorganisms which were affiliated to Halomonas aquamarina, Exiguobacterium aurantiacum, Haloferax sp., Salinococcus sp., Marinococcus sp. and Halomonas sp. After 6-week incubation with oil, these numbers were 8.7?×?10(7?)CFU?g(-1) and the Haloferax sp. proportion in the total microflora increased from 20 to 93?%. Experiments using the individual cultures and three other haloarchaea isolated earlier from the same site confirmed that casaminoacids and light enhanced their oil consumption potential in batch cultures.

Nutrient Amendments of Inorganic Fertiliser and Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch and Their Influence on Bacterial Species Dominance and Degradation of the Associated Crude Oil Constituents

The effects of inorganic commercial fertiliser (N:P:K = 8:8:1) and oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) as nutrient amendments for crude oil degradation and microbial population shift by a microbial consortium [Pseudomonas sp. (UKMP-14T), Acinetobacter sp. (UKMP-12T), Trichoderma sp. (TriUKMP-1M and TriUKMP-2M)] were assessed. The bacterial populations present during crude oil degradation were analysed by spread plate method and 16S rRNA sequences, whereas the presence of fungi was assessed by growth on potato dextrose agar. Crude oil degradation analysed using gas chromatography-flame ionisation detection showed total petroleum hydrocarbon reduced between 70 and 100%, depending on the type of amendments compared to control (≈55%) after 30 days of incubation. Nutrient amendments using NPK fertiliser or EFB were found to influence the domination of different bacterial species, which in turn preferentially utilised different hydrocarbons. This study suggested different nutrient amendments could be used to preferentially select bacteria to degrade different components of crude oil, particularly pertaining to the recalcitrant phytane. This information is very useful for application of in situ bioremediation of soil hydrocarbon contamination.     

Nutritional evaluation of the white-rot fungus Sporotrichum pulverulentum as a feedstuff to rats,pigs, and sheep

The production of single-cell protein (SCP) based on cheap carbon sources such as spent liquor from paper mills is of interest for different reasons. The White-rot fungus (Sporotrichum pulverulentum) has earlier been shown to degrade cellulose and lignin. The nutritive value of this fungus was investigated with rats, pigs, and sheep. The effect of different drying process was evaluated on rats. Experiments with piglets, growing pigs, and sheep were aimed at getting primary information on nutritive parameters with domestic animal species, Chemical analysis of S. pulverulentum showed that the sum of the amino acids corresponded to 70% and ammonia, GABA, and glucosamine to 20% of its crude protein content. Differences between drying treatments in their effect on protein digestibility were not noted. From a protein quality viewpoint, a tendency toward superiority was noted for two of the drying processes. The amino acid digestibility of S. pulverulentum was inferior to values for soybean oil meal given in textbooks. The piglet experiment confirmed the lower nutritive value of S. pulverulentum compared with soybean oil meal. in the piglet stage a content of metabolizable energy of S. pulverulentum was found which corresponded to 60% of that for soybean oil meal. With increasing age the ability of pigs to utilize the fungus increased. The limited nutritive value for monogastric animals is most certainly caused by the cell-wall structure of S. pulverulentum with poor digestibility of the carbohydrates. The experiment with sheep showed more satisfactory results than with monogastric species, with digestibility of crude protein of 82% and a content of metabolizable energy of 70% of soybean oil meal.     

Removing of Crude Oil From Polluted Areas Using the Isolated Fungi From Tehran Oil Refinery

The pollution of soil and the subsurface environment by crude oil spill and petroleum products spill is a major concern around the world. The aim of this research was to investigate the ability of fungi isolated from Tehran oil refinery area in removing crude oil and to evaluate their enzymatic activities. Plant root samples were collected from the polluted and control areas, and rhizospheral fungi were isolated and determined using the laboratory methods and taxonomic keys. Seven fungal species were isolated and then cultured in potato dextrose agar (PDA) media containing 0–15% (v/v) crude oil. Oil removal was determined after a one-month growth of fungal colonies and then compared with the control media. The results showed that the studied fungi were able to remove crude oil from the media. The highest removal efficiency was observed in Aspergillus sp. Total protein content and enzymatic activity (of peroxidase and catalase) increased with increasing crude oil pollution. The highest enzymatic activity was evaluated in Aspergillus sp. growing in media containing 15% petroleum and the lowest activity was found in non-polluted groups. Results showed that there is a direct correlation between oil-removing potency and enzymatic activity. Aspergillus sp. showed the highest enzyme activity and also the highest petroleum removal efficiency.     

Study on the role of Nocardia farcinica in enhancing the flow rate of crude oil

Microbial degradation of paraffin wax is an efficient method of removing wax deposition from pipelines and enhancing the flow rate of crude oil. The present study was carried out to isolate a potential paraffin-degrading organism from oil wells of Gujarat. Screening for bacteria-utilizing paraffin wax as the sole source of carbon was carried out using 2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol (DCPIP) dye as redox indicator. The selected organism was identified as Nocardia farcinica by 16S rRNA sequencing. Nocardia farcinica showed 100% degradation of heneicosane, 65.99% degradation of docosane, and 50.59% degradation of tricosane, the major components of paraffin wax, in 8 days, which was observed by gas chromatography. Eicosane (86%) and heneicosane (80%) were utilized more by the selected organism compared with octacosane (61%) and triacontane (58%) (DCPIP dye method). Gas chromatographic analysis revealed that the selected organism degraded 50% of paraffin crude oil in 10 days. To determine the ability of the selected organism to enhance flow rate, parameters such as viscosity (cps), surface tension (d/cm²), pour point (°C), and flow rate (min/2 ml) were determined, and the result showed significant reduction in all the parameters after the addition of Nocardia farcinica. The viscosity and surface tension of crude oil were reduced by 22 and 6.30 points, respectively, after the addition of Nocardia farcinica. Pour point and flow rate were reduced by 2 and 11 points, respectively, when compared with control. The above findings indicate that Nocardia farcinica isolated from crude oil plays a major role in enhancing the flow rate of crude oil.     

Porous biocarrier-enhanced biodegradation of crude oil contaminated soil

Soil contamination with crude oil from petrochemicals and oil exploitation is an important worldwide issue. Comparing available remediation techniques, bioremediation is widely considered to be a cost-effective choice; however, slow degradation of crude oil is a common problem due to the low numbers of bacteria capable of degrading petroleum hydrocarbons and the low bioavailability of contaminants in soil. To promote crude oil removal, biocarrier for immobilization of indigenous hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria was developed using porous materials such as activated carbon and zeolite. Microbial biomass reached 10¹⁰ cells g^?1 on activated carbon and 10⁶ cells g^?1 on zeolite. Total microbial and dehydrogenase activities were approximately 12 times and 3 times higher, respectively, in activated carbon than in zeolite. High microbial colonization by spherical and rod shapes were observed for the 5–20 μm thick biofilm on the outer surface of both biocarriers using electronic microscopy. Based on batch-scale experiments containing free-living bacterial cultures and activated carbon biocarrier into crude oil contaminated soil, biocarrier enhanced the biodegradation of crude oil, with 48.89% removal, compared to natural attenuation with 13.0% removal, biostimulation (nutrient supplement only) with 26.3% removal, and bioaugmentation (free-living bacteria) with 37.4% removal. In addition, the biocarrier increased the bacterial population to 10⁸ cells g^?1 dry soil and total microbial activity to 3.5 A₄₉₀. A hypothesis model was proposed to explain the mechanism: the biocarrier improved the oxygen, nutrient mass transfer and water holding capacity of the soil, which were the limiting factors for biodegradation of non-aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) contaminants such as crude oil in soil.Scientific relevanceThis study explored the role of biocarrier in enhancing biodegradation of hydrophobic contaminants such as crude oil, and discussed the function of biocarrier in improving oxygen mass transfer and soil water holding capacity, etc.     

Effect of organic soil amendments on damping-off of lettuce caused by Corticium praticola

Ten organic amendments were added to unsterile soil which was contaminated 14 days later with Corticium praticola and sown with lettuce seeds. Substantial increases in final stands of seedlings were obtained with grass meal, bran and wood cellulose. Corn and barley meal, linseed cake and fish meal decreased final stands; molassine meal, potato starch and peptone had relatively little effect. Seedlings grown with wood cellulose were very chlorotic and stunted. Up to 30% of lettuce seeds sown in soil which, 180 days earlier, had been amended with corn meal and contaminated with C. praticola became colonized by the fungus. None was colonized in unamended soil or in soil amended with grass meal. Ninety days after amendment and contamination fewer seeds were colonized in soil amended with grass meal than in unamended soil. The amendment of soil with grass meal was as effective as thiram seed treatment in protecting lettuce seedlings against C. praticola and grass meal was particularly effective in reducing both the numbers of seedlings attacked and the survival of the fungus in the soil.     

原油污染对黄绵土和风沙土水分入渗的影响

原油进入土壤后会堵塞土壤孔隙,影响土壤斥水性,改变土壤水分运动状况。本研究利用土柱模拟的方法,研究了不同原油污染程度(0、0.5%、1%、2%、4%)对黄绵土和风沙土水分入渗过程的影响。结果表明: 随着原油含量的增加,两种土壤湿润锋的推进速度和入渗速率均减小,土壤原油污染程度为4%时湿润锋运移到土柱底部的所需时间最长,污染程度为0时湿润锋运移到土柱底部的所需时间最短,黄绵土湿润锋达到土柱底部所需最长时间是最短时间的5倍,风沙土最长时间是最短时间的48倍;当湿润锋运移到土柱底部时,黄绵土的累积入渗量随原油含量的增加而减小,而风沙土的累积入渗量先增大后减小;在高浓度(2%、4%)原油处理下,风沙土的累积入渗量曲线出现“翘尾”现象。Kostiakov入渗模型和Philip入渗模型比Green-Ampt模型能更好地模拟不同原油处理下的黄绵土土壤水分入渗过程,但对风沙土而言,两种模型对低浓度(0、0.5%、1%)原油处理的土壤水分入渗过程拟合较好。原油污染能够显著影响土壤水分入渗过程,且对风沙土的影响更大。
