Abstract
The elimination of contaminants caused by anthropogenic activities and rapid industrialization can be accomplished using the widely used technology of bioremediation. Recent years have seen significant advancement in our understanding of the bioremediation of coupled polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon contamination caused by microbial communities including bacteria, algae, fungi, yeast, etc. One of the newest techniques is microbial-based bioremediation because of its greater productivity, high efficiency, and non-toxic approach. Microbes are appealing candidates for bioremediation because they have amazing metabolic capacity to alter most types of organic material and can endure harsh environmental conditions. Microbes have been characterized as extremophiles that can survive in a variety of environmental circumstances, making them the treasure troves for environmental cleanup and the recovery of contaminated soil. In this study, the mechanisms underlying the bioremediation process as well as the current situation of microbial bioremediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon are briefly described.

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of the Biopreparation in Combination with the Polymer γ-PGA for the Biodegradation of Petroleum Contaminants in Soil. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 15:400. [PMID: 35057118 PMCID: PMC8778143 DOI: 10.3390/ma15020400] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2021] [Revised: 12/31/2021] [Accepted: 01/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Biodegradation is a method of effectively removing petroleum hydrocarbons from the natural environment. This research focuses on the biodegradation of aliphatic hydrocarbons, monoaromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and all three xylene isomers (BTEX) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as a result of soil inoculation with a biopreparation A1 based on autochthonous microorganisms and a biopreparation A1 with the addition of γ-PGA. The research used biopreparation A1 made of the following strains: Dietzia sp. IN133, Gordonia sp. IN138 Mycolicibacterium frederiksbergense IN53, Rhodococcus erythropolis IN119, Rhodococcus sp. IN136 and Pseudomonas sp. IN132. The experiments were carried out in laboratory conditions (microbiological tests, respirometric tests, and in semi-technical conditions (ex-situ prism method). The biodegradation efficiency was assessed on the basis of respirometric tests, chromatographic analyses and toxicological tests. As a result of inoculation of AB soil with the biopreparation A1 within 6 months, a reduction of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) (66.03%), BTEX (80.08%) and PAHs (38.86%) was achieved and its toxicity was reduced. Inoculation of AB soil with the biopreparation A1 with the addition of γ-PGA reduced the concentration of TPH, BTEX and PAHs by 79.21%, 90.19%, and 51.18%, respectively, and reduced its toxicity. The conducted research has shown that the addition of γ-PGA affects the efficiency of the biodegradation process of petroleum pollutants, increasing the degree of TPH biodegradation by 13.18%, BTEX by 10.11% and PAHs by 12.32% compared to pure biopreparation A1.

Phenanthrene biodegradation in a fed-batch reactor treating a spent sediment washing solution: Techno-economic implications for the recovery of ethanol as extracting agent. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 286:131361. [PMID: 34280833 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2021.131361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2020] [Revised: 06/14/2021] [Accepted: 06/26/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
The continuous dredging of sediments contaminated by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as phenanthrene (PHE) has required the employment of high-efficiency technologies, including sediment washing (SW). However, the large amount of generated spent SW effluents requires the development of effective, eco-friendly and cost-saving approaches, which can tackle the waste formation in favor of the recovery of chemicals. This study proposes the treatment of a spent SW solution containing ethanol (EtOH) as extracting agent, by testing different initial PHE concentrations (i.e. 20-140 mg L-1) within six consecutive cycles in a fed-batch bioreactor under aerobic conditions. The biological process achieved a PHE removal of 63-91% after the enrichment of PHE-degrading bacteria and the proper supplementation of nutrients, and was mainly affected by the initial PHE concentration value and the excessive decrease of pH and dissolved oxygen. Achromobacter, Sphingobacterium and Dysgonomonas genera were mainly involved in PHE degradation, which followed a first-order kinetic model (R2 = 0.652-0.928) with a degradation rate and half-life time of 0.127-1.177 d-1 and 0.589-2.912 d, respectively. A techno-economic assessment revealed that a virtuous operation of SW, EtOH recovery and biodegradation of the SW solution can allow the recovery of up to 1.35 tons of EtOH per ton of remediated sediment and the decrease of the overall costs by 50%.

Abstract
This study investigated bacterial communities during aerobic food waste co-composting degradation of highly PCDD/F-contaminated field soil. The total initial toxic equivalent quantity (TEQ) of the soil was 16,004 ng-TEQ kg-1 dry weight. After 42-day composting and bioactivity-enhanced monitored natural attenuation (MNA), the final compost product's TEQ reduced to 1916 ng-TEQ kg-1 dry weight (approximately 75% degradation) with a degradation rate of 136.33 ng-TEQ kg-1 day-1. Variations in bacterial communities and PCDD/F degraders were identified by next-generation sequencing (NGS). Thermophilic conditions of the co-composting process resulted in fewer observed bacteria and PCDD/F concentrations. Numerous organic compound degraders were identified by NGS, supporting the conclusion that PCDD/Fs were degraded during food waste co-composting. Bacterial communities of the composting process were defined by four phyla (Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes). At the genus level, Bacillus (Firmicutes) emerged as the most dominant phylotype. Further studies on specific roles of these bacterial strains are needed, especially for the thermophiles which contributed to the high degradation rate of the co-co-composting treatment's first 14 days.

Biodegradation 2017; 28:181-194. [PMID: 28265780 DOI: 10.1007/s10532-017-9787-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2016] [Accepted: 02/23/2017] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Metamifop is universally used in agriculture as a post-emergence aryloxyphenoxy propionate herbicide (AOPP), however its microbial degradation mechanism remains unclear. Consortium ME-1 isolated from AOPP-contaminated soil can degrade metamifop completely after 6 days and utilize it as the carbon source for bacterial growth. Meanwhile, consortium ME-1 possessed the ability to degrade metamifop stably under a wide range of pH (6.0-10.0) or temperature (20-42 °C). HPLC-MS analysis shows that N-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-(4-hydroxyphenoxy)-N-methyl propionamide, 2-(4-hydroxyphenoxy)-propionic acid, 6-chloro-2-benzoxazolinone and N-methyl-2-fluoroaniline, were detected and identified as four intermediate metabolites. Based on the metabolites identified, a putative metabolic pathway of metamifop was proposed for the first time. In addition, the consortium ME-1 was also able to transform or degrade other AOPP such as fenoxaprop-p-ethyl, clodinafop-propargyl, quizalofop-p-ethyl and cyhalofop-butyl. Moreover, the community structure of ME-1 with lower microbial diversity compared with the initial soil sample was investigated by high throughput sequencing. β-Proteobacteria and Sphingobacteria were the largest class with sequence percentages of 46.6% and 27.55% at the class level. In addition, 50 genera were classified in consortium ME-1, of which Methylobacillus, Sphingobacterium, Bordetella and Flavobacterium were the dominant genera with sequence percentages of 25.79, 25.61, 14.68 and 9.55%, respectively.
