The present work assessed effluent quality to gain further insight into their variability across time, considering both conventional parameters and those specifically related to tannery effluents, such as chromium levels. Most of the effluents analyzed exceeded the contaminant limits established by current national legislation and therefore would require treatment. To improve treatment efficiency, a mixed bacterial culture was selected on the basis of its ability to remove organic matter (OM), measured in terms of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5). The four strains analyzed, belonging to the genera Bacillus, Rhodococcus and Acinetobacter, were isolated from sediments contaminated with effluents with a high organic load. The native consortium SFC 500-1, formed by Acinetobacter guillouiae SFC 500-1 A and Bacillus toyonensis SFC 500-1E, proved to be the most effective at reducing BOD5 and COD. It was selected for bioaugmentation treatment. Dissolved oxygen was found to be key for reduction, and the inoculum size required to treat effluents with different COD values was also determined. All in all, the results confirmed previous characterization of these effluents, which should always be the basis for treatment and management strategies, and also contributed to optimizing some operational parameters so that effective and safe treatment technologies may be developed.","PeriodicalId":8935,"journal":{"name":"Bioremediation Journal","volume":"26 1","pages":"271 - 280"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42798783","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study thus, investigated the potential of different indigenous bacterial cells for the degradation of paint and textile effluents. Paint and textile effluents samples were aseptically collected from paint and textile industries. Physical, chemical, heavy metals properties and microbial load of the effluent were investigated using standard methods. Enrichment, Isolation and identification of bacterial isolates were determined using the standard microbiological methods. Screening of paint and textile effluents degraders was carried out using solid phase screening method. Degradation of paint and textile effluents were determined by Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) analysis and spectrophotometrically. Results revealed that among the heavy metals analyzed, lead from paint effluent had highest value of 5.49 ± 1.2 mg/L. All the samples collected were turbid with highest and lowest values of 865 ± 1.3 and 514 ± 2.5 (NTU) from paint effluent samples. Paint effluent also recorded highest bacterial count of 6.85 ± 1.13 CFU/ml while paint sludge had the lowest count of 1.16 ± 0. 15 CFU/g. Forty-seven bacterial isolates were obtained from the paint and textile effluents samples. Screening of the 47 isolates showed that 21 isolates possessed the ability to grow on agar plates amended with paints and textile dyes. Out of the 21 positive isolates, 12 isolates were obtained from paint samples while nine isolates were recovered from the textile samples. Highest degradation activity was recorded by Bacillus subtilis (94.37% ±5.35) obtained from textile effluent sample while Micrococcus sp (46.55% ±8.30) from paint polluted soil sample had the lowest degradation activity. FTIR analysis showed the transformation and disappearance of peaks in the treated paint and textile effluents by Bacillus subtilis.

In the present study, the Illumina Miseq platform explored the bacterial diversity of the efficient PHE degrading consortium NS-PAH-2015-PNP-5, developed from the petrochemical contaminated soil near the Indian Oil Corporation Limited refinery, Panipat (India). Total 273 OTUs represented the species diversity identified in NS-PAH-2015-PNP-5. Nineteen major bacterial species covered approximately 99.22% of the total α-diversity of NS-PAH-2015-PNP-5. In NS-PAH-2015-PNP-5, the Shannon alpha diversity (H') and Pielou's Evenness Index (J') were calculated at 2.43 and 0.43, respectively. Moreover, an overwhelming population of phylum Proteobacteria (99.28%) and Pseudomonas spp. (32.25%) were observed in NS-PAH-2015-PNP-5. Two culturable isolates, PAH 51 and PAH 52, were isolated from the NS-PAH-2015-PNP-5, and the result of 16S rRNA analysis showed homology with Bacillus wiedmannii (96.7%) and Achromobacter pulmonis (99.24%), respectively. The results of the carbohydrate utilization test showed that NS-PAH-2015-PNP-5 was able to metabolize dextrose, L-arabinose, ONPG, esculin, citrate, and malonate. Detection of phthalic acid metabolite by the GCMS analysis inferred that NS-PAH-2015-PNP-5 bio-degraded the PHE through the protocatechuic acid pathway.

The current study demonstrates M. foliorum phytoremediation’s efficacy in terms of As tolerance, removal, and toxicity in the M. malabathricum plant. For an observation period of 90 days, growing plants were treated with M. foliorum in arsenic-contaminated soil. The morphological trait, pH of soil, and potential advantage induced by M. foliorum on M. malabathricum were evaluated. Plants did not display any noticeable signs of toxicity, however, the root and stem length were significantly increased in the presence of M. foliorum. The Bioconcentration Factor (BCF) was increased in plants inoculated with M. foliorum by 0.3 times, the Transfer Factor (TF) of As in the M. malabathricum plants decreased, whether in the presence or absence of PGPB. The As phytoremediation treatment with M. foliorum also enhanced uptake of As in root (by 26%) and shoot (by 22%) than in the other two (A2 and control) phytoremediation treatments. This shows that M. foliorum inoculation reduced As toxicity through substantial reduction of the adverse stress effects, increased stem and root fresh and dry weight.","PeriodicalId":8935,"journal":{"name":"Bioremediation Journal","volume":"27 1","pages":"251 - 262"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48617794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work aims to bio-remove and biodegrade the waste cooking oil using a newly isolated strain Aspergillus flavus USM-AR1, in stirred tank reactor (STR). The strain showed remarkable removal activity of waste cooking oil. The removal efficiency of waste cooking oil reached 97% on day 3 of cultivation. This was attained when the culture was agitated at 400 rpm, maintaining the Reynold’s number of that obtained in the shake flask culture. Fortuitously, the best dispersion of waste cooking oil was also obtained at 400 rpm. The highest cell surface hydrophobicity (MATH) at 76.42% was observed at day 3 of cultivation. The maximum biosurfactant and emulsification activity occurred at day 2 of cultivation, which were 43 mm and 44%, respectively.

Several chemical and physical properties such as surface area, hydrophobicity, chemical structure, molecular weight, melting temperature, crystallinity, and so on influence their biodegradation. Previously, hydrolases from Thermobifida fusca were reported to have higher degradability until Polyethylene terephthalate hydrolase (PETase) from Ideonella sakaiensis was discovered that showed better specificity for PET. The catalytic triad contains Ser160, Asp206 and His237 along with conserved serine hydrolase motif “Gly-X1-Ser-X2-Gly” having tryptophan at X1 for extending the hydrophobic surface of the active site and cysteine in the vicinity providing thermal stability via additional disulfide bonds. Here, we employed in silico screening techniques for the identification of potential plastic degrading PETases, initiating with sequence similarity search using IsPETase, scrutinizing for the presence of the conserved serine hydrolase motif containing tryptophan at X1 position and cysteine in the vicinity. Five PETases belonging to the diene-lactone hydrolase protein family from different bacterial species were identified in the initial screening, which was further confirmed by molecular docking studies indicating their capacity to bind MHET as substrate for degradation. Our study provides a reliable framework for identification and characterization of PETases involved in biodegradation of plastics which can be further explored for improving their efficiency and suitability under different conditions. This is extremely beneficial approach considering that the increasing demand for microbial enzymes due to the continued accumulation of plastics in the environment.","PeriodicalId":8935,"journal":{"name":"Bioremediation Journal","volume":"27 1","pages":"311 - 323"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48467478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, vegetation community study was performed to identify the dominant herb and shrub species through quadrat method. Seven dominant plant species were selected from the OB dumps and analyzed for metal uptake.
