Purwasena IA, Amaniyah M, Astuti DI, Firmansyah Y, Sugai Y. Production, characterization, and application of Pseudoxanthomonas taiwanensis biosurfactant: a green chemical for microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). Sci Rep 2024; 14:10270. [PMID: 38704438 PMCID: PMC11069559 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-61096-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2023] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Biosurfactants, as microbial bioproducts, have significant potential in the field of microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). Biosurfactants are microbial bioproducts with the potential to reduce the interfacial tension (IFT) between crude oil and water, thus enhancing oil recovery. This study aims to investigate the production and characterization of biosurfactants and evaluate their effectiveness in increasing oil recovery. Pseudoxanthomonas taiwanensis was cultured on SMSS medium to produce biosurfactants. Crude oil was found to be the most effective carbon source for biosurfactant production. The biosurfactants exhibited comparable activity to sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) at a concentration of 400 ppm in reducing IFT. It was characterized as glycolipids, showing stability in emulsions at high temperatures (up to 120 °C), pH levels ranging from 3 to 9, and NaCl concentrations up to 10% (w/v). Response surface methodology revealed the optimized conditions for the most stable biosurfactants (pH 7, temperature of 40 °C, and salinity of 2%), resulting in an EI24 value of 64.45%. Experimental evaluations included sand pack column and core flooding studies, which demonstrated additional oil recovery of 36.04% and 12.92%, respectively. These results indicate the potential application of P. taiwanensis biosurfactants as sustainable and environmentally friendly approaches to enhance oil recovery in MEOR processes.

Abstract
In the growing landscape of interest in natural surfactants, selecting the appropriate one for specific applications remains challenging. The extensive, yet often unsystematized, knowledge of microbial surfactants, predominantly represented by rhamnolipids (RLs), typically does not translate beyond the conditions presented in scientific publications. This limitation stems from the numerous variables and their interdependencies that characterize microbial surfactant production. We hypothesized that a computational recipe for biosynthesizing RLs with targeted applicational properties could be developed from existing literature and experimental data. We amassed literature data on RL biosynthesis and micellar solubilization and augmented it with our experimental results on the solubilization of triglycerides (TGs), a topic underrepresented in current literature. Utilizing this data, we constructed mathematical models that can predict RL characteristics and solubilization efficiency, represented as logPRL = f(carbon and nitrogen source, parameters of biosynthesis) and logMSR = f(solubilizate, rhamnolipid (e.g. logPRL), parameters of solubilization), respectively. The models, characterized by robust R2 values of respectively 0.581-0.997 and 0.804, enabled the ranking of descriptors based on their significance and impact-positive or negative-on the predicted values. These models have been translated into ready-to-use calculators, tools designed to streamline the selection process for identifying a biosurfactant optimally suited for intended applications.

Abstract
Microbial amphiphiles play an important role in environmental activities such as microbial signaling, bioremediation, and biofilm formation. Microorganisms rely on their unique characteristics of interfaces to carry out critical biological functions, which are helped by amphipathic biomolecules known as amphiphiles. Bacillus amyloids aid in cell adhesion and biofilm formation. Pseudomonas sp. are essential in biofilm development and are a vital survival strategy for many bacteria. Furthermore, Pseudomonas and Bacillus are well-known for their ability to produce biosurfactants with a range of applications, including bioremediation and removing biological pollutants from different environments. The study employed 31 different media types and a range of analytical techniques to assess the presence of amyloid proteins and the absence of biosurfactants in Bacillus licheniformis K125 (GQ850525.1) and Pseudomonas fluorescens CHA0. The presence of amyloid proteins was confirmed through Congo red and thioflavin T staining. The carefully constructed medium also efficiently inhibited the synthesis of biosurfactants by these bacteria. Additionally, surface tension measurements, emulsification index, thin-layer chromatography, and high-performance thin-layer chromatography analyses indicated the absence of biosurfactants in the tested media.

Abstract
This study aimed to reveal that the effect of biosurfactant on the dispersion and degradation of crude oil. Whole genome analysis showed that Pseudomonas aeruginosa GB-3 contained abundant genes involved in biosurfactant synthesis and metabolic processes and had the potential to degrade oil. The biosurfactant produced by strain GB-3 was screened by various methods. The results showed that the surface tension reduction activity was 28.6 mN·m-1 and emulsification stability was exhibited at different pH, salinity and temperature. The biosurfactant was identified as rhamnolipid by LC-MS and FTIR. The fermentation conditions of strain GB-3 were optimized by response surface methodology, finally the optimal system (carbon source: glucose, nitrogen source: ammonium sulfate, C/N ratio:16:1, pH: 7, temperature: 30-35 °C) was determined. Compared with the initial fermentation, the yield of biosurfactant increased by 4.4 times after optimization. In addition, rhamnolipid biosurfactant as a dispersant could make the dispersion of crude oil reach 38% within seven days, which enhanced the bioavailability of crude oil. As a biostimulant, it could also improve the activity of indigenous microorganism and increase the degradation rate of crude oil by 10-15%. This study suggested that rhamnolipid biosurfactant had application prospect in bioremediation of marine oil-spill.

Abstract
This study aims to isolate microbial strains for producing mono-rhamnolipids with high proportion. Oily sludge is rich in petroleum and contains diverse biosurfactant-producing strains. A biosurfactant-producing strain LP20 was isolated from oily sludge, identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa based on phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA. High-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry results indicated that biosurfactants produced from LP20 were rhamnolipids, mainly containing Rha-C8-C10, Rha-C10-C10, Rha-Rha-C8-C10, Rha-Rha-C10-C10, Rha-C10-C12:1, and Rha-C10-C12. Interestingly, more mono-rhamnolipids were produced by strain LP20 with a relative abundance of 64.5%. Pseudomonas aeruginosa LP20 optimally produced rhamnolipids at a pH of 7.0 and a salinity of 0.1% using glycerol and nitrate. The culture medium for rhamnolipids by strain LP20 was optimized by response surface methodology. LP20 produced rhamnolipids up to 6.9 g L-1, increased by 116%. Rhamnolipids produced from LP20 decreased the water surface tension to 28.1 mN m-1 with a critical micelle concentration of 60 mg L-1. The produced rhamnolipids emulsified many hydrocarbons with EI24 values higher than 56% and showed antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Cladosporium sp. with inhibition rates 48.5% and 17.9%, respectively. Pseudomonas aeruginosa LP20 produced more proportion of mono-rhamnolipids, and the LP20 rhamnolipids exhibited favorable activities and promising potential in microbial-enhanced oil recovery, bioremediation, and agricultural biocontrol.

Abstract
Biosurfactants have garnered increased attention lately due to their superiority of their properties over fossil-derived counterparts. While the cost of production remains a significant hurdle to surpass synthetic surfactants, biosurfactants have been anticipated to gain a larger market share in the coming decades. Among these, glycolipids, a type of low-molecular-weight biosurfactant, stand out for their efficacy in reducing surface and interfacial tension, which made them highly sought-after for various surfactant-related applications. Glycolipids are composed of hydrophilic carbohydrate moieties linked to hydrophobic fatty acid chains through ester bonds that mainly include rhamnolipids, trehalose lipids, sophorolipids, and mannosylerythritol lipids. This review highlights the current landscape of glycolipids and covers specific glycolipid productivity and the diverse range of products found in the global market. Applications such as bioremediation, food processing, petroleum refining, biomedical uses, and increasing agriculture output have been discussed. Additionally, the latest advancements in production cost reduction for glycolipid and the challenges of utilizing second-generation feedstocks for sustainable production are also thoroughly examined. Overall, this review proposes a balance between environmental advantages, economic viability, and societal benefits through the optimized integration of secondary feedstocks in biosurfactant production.

Abstract
Microbial biosurfactants surpass synthetic alternatives due to their biodegradability, minimal toxicity, selective properties, and efficacy across a wide range of environmental conditions. Owing to their remarkable advantages, biosurfactants employability as effective emulsifiers and stabilizers, antimicrobial and antioxidant attributes, rendering them for integration into food preservation, processing, formulations, and packaging. The biosurfactants can also be derived from various types of food wastes. Biosurfactants are harnessed across multiple sectors within the food industry, ranging from condiments (mayonnaise) to baked goods (bread, muffins, loaves, cookies, and dough), and extending into the dairy industry (cheese, yogurt, and fermented milk). Additionally, their impact reaches the beverage industry, poultry feed, seafood products like tuna, as well as meat processing and instant foods, collectively redefining each sector's landscape. This review thoroughly explores the multifaceted utilization of biosurfactants within the food industry as emulsifiers, antimicrobial, antiadhesive, antibiofilm agents, shelf-life enhancers, texture modifiers, and foaming agents.

Abstract
The development of the chemical industry has led to a boom in daily consumption and convenience, but has also led to the release of large amounts of organic pollutants, such as petroleum hydrocarbons, plastics, pesticides, and dyes. These pollutants are often recalcitrant to degradation in the environment, whereby the most problematic compounds may even lead to carcinogenesis, teratogenesis and mutagenesis in animals and humans after accumulation in the food chain. Microbial degradation of organic pollutants is efficient and environmentally friendly, which is why it is considered an ideal method. Numerous studies have shown that Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a powerful platform for the remediation of environmental pollution with organic chemicals due to its diverse metabolic networks and its ability to secrete biosurfactants to make hydrophobic substrates more bioavailable, thereby facilitating degradation. In this paper, the mechanisms and methods of the bioremediation of environmental organic pollutants (EOPs) by P. aeruginosa are reviewed. The challenges of current studies are highlighted, and new strategies for future research are prospected. Metabolic pathways and critical enzymes must be further deciphered, which is significant for the construction of a bioremediation platform based on this powerful organism.

Abstract
The treatment of cooking oil wastewater is an urgent issue need to be solved. We aimed to screen for efficient oil-degrading bacteria and develop a new microbial agent for degrading waste cooking oil in oily wastewater. Three extremely effective oil-degrading bacteria, known as YZQ-1, YZQ-3, and YZQ-4, were found by the enrichment and acclimation of samples from various sources and separation using oil degradation plates. The 16S rRNA sequencing analysis and phylogenetic tree construction showed that the three strains were Bacillus tropicus, Pseudomonas multiresinivorans, and Raoultella terrigena. Under optimal degradation conditions, the maximal degradation rates were 67.30 ± 3.69%, 89.65 ± 1.08%, and 79.60 ± 5.30%, respectively, for YZQ-1, YZQ-3, and YZQ-4. Lipase activity was highest for YZQ-3, reaching 94.82 ± 12.89 U/L. The best bacterial alliance was obtained by adding equal numbers of microbial cells from the three strains. Moreover, when this bacterial alliance was applied to oily wastewater, the degradation rate of waste cooking oil was 61.13 ± 7.30% (3.67% ± 2.13% in the control group), and COD removal was 62.4% ± 5.65% (55.60% ± 0.71% in the control group) in 72 h. Microbial community analysis results showed YZQ-1 and YZQ-3 were adaptable to wastewater and could coexist with local bacteria, whereas YZQ-4 could not survive in wastewater. Therefore, the combination of YZQ-1 and YZQ-3 can efficiently degrade oil and shows great potential for oily wastewater treatment.

[PMID: 37678592 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2023] [Revised: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/05/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023]
Abstract
A novel bacterial strain, Bacillus sp. YM1, was isolated from compost for the efficient degradation of oily food waste under salt stress. The strain's lipase activity, oil degradation ability, and tolerance to salt stress were evaluated in a liquid medium. Additionally, the molecular mechanisms (including key genes and functional processes) underlying the strain's salt-resistant degradation of oil were investigated based on RNA-Seq technology. The results showed that after 24 h of microbial degradation, the degradation rate of triglycerides in soybean oil was 80.23% by Bacillus sp. YM1 at a 30 g L-1 NaCl concentration. The metabolizing mechanism of long-chain triglycerides (C50-C58) by the YM1 strain, especially the biodegradation rate of triglycerides (C18:3/C18:3/C18:3), could reach 98.65%. The most substantial activity of lipase was up to 325.77 U·L-1 at a salinity of 30 g L-1 NaCl. During salt-induced stress, triacylglycerol lipase was identified as the crucial enzyme involved in oil degradation in Bacillus sp. YM1, and its synthesis was regulated by the lip gene (M5E02_13495). Bacillus sp. YM1 underwent adaptation to salt stress through various mechanisms, including the accumulation of free amino acids, betaine synthesis, regulation of intracellular Na+/K+ balance, the antioxidative response, spore formation, and germination. The key genes involved in Bacillus sp. YM1's adaptation to salt stress were responsible for the synthesis of glutamate 5-kinase, superoxide dismutase, catalase, Na+/H+ antiporter, general stress protein, and sporogenic proteins belonging to the YjcZ family. Results indicated that the isolated strain of Bacillus sp. YM1 could significantly degrade oil in a short time under salt stress. This study would introduce new salt-tolerant strains for coping with the biodegradation of oily food waste and provide gene targets for use in genetic engineering.

Abstract
The high oil and salt content of kitchen waste (KW) inhibit bioconversion and humus production. To efficiently degrade oily kitchen waste (OKW), a halotolerant bacterial strain, Serratia marcescens subsp. SLS which could transform various animal fats and vegetable oils, was isolated from KW compost. Its identification, phylogenetic analysis, lipase activity assays, and oil degradation in liquid medium were assessed, and then it was employed to carry out a simulated OKW composting experiment. In liquid medium, the 24 h degradation rate of mixed oils (soybean oil: peanut oil: olive oil: lard = 1:1:1:1, v/v/v/v) was up to 87.37% at 30 °C, pH 7.0, 280 rpm, 2% oil concentration and 3% NaCl concentration. The ultra-performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) method demonstrated that the mechanism of SLS strain metabolizing long-chain triglycerides (TAGs) (C53-C60), especially the biodegradation of TAG (C18:3/C18:3/C18:3) by the strain can reach more than 90%. Degradation of 5, 10, 15% concentrations of total mixed oil were also calculated to be 64.57, 71.25, 67.99% respectively after a simulated composting duration of 15 days. The results suggest that the isolated strain of S. marcescens subsp. SLS is suitable for OKW bioremediation in high NaCl concentration within a reasonably short period of time. The findings introduced a salt-tolerant and oil-degrading bacteria, providing insights into the mechanism of oil biodegradation and offering new avenues of study for OKW compost and oily wastewater treatment.

Abstract
This work focused on the development of an inexpensive carbon source and the improvement of the fermentation-foam fractionation coupling system. The rhamnolipids production capacity of waste frying oil (WFO) was evaluated. The suitable bacterial cultivation of seed liquid and the addition amount of WFO was 16 h and 2% (v/v), respectively. A combined strategy of cell immobilization and oil emulsion avoid cell entrainment inside foam and improves the oil mass transfer rate. The immobilization conditions of bacterial cells into alginate-chitosan-alginate (ACA) microcapsules were optimized using the response surface method (RSM). Under the optimal conditions, rhamnolipids production using batch fermentation with immobilized strain reached 7.18 ± 0.23% g/L. WFO was emulsified into a fermentation medium using rhamnolipids as emulsifier (0.5 g/L). By monitoring dissolved oxygen, 30 mL/min was selected as a suitable air volumetric flow rate for fermentation-foam fractionation coupling operation. The total production and recovery percentage of rhamnolipids were 11.29 ± 0.36 g/L and 95.62 ± 0.38%, respectively.

Abstract
The growth-associated metabolites are produced during the exponential phase; however, this phase terminates due to substrate depletion or product inhibition. In the present study, a semicontinuous mode with a fill-and-draw strategy was applied to extend the exponential phase of the biosurfactant production to overcome the product inhibition and in turn, enhance the yield. Bioreactor studies were performed in batch mode, followed by the semicontinuous operation. A potential biosurfactant producer Bacillus subtilis RSL2 was used in this study at the previously optimized conditions of pH 6.6, temperature 41 °C and 5% (w/v) of molasses. A better mass transfer was achieved in the bioreactor as compared to the shake flask study. In the batch bioreactor study, 90% of sugar was utilized with simultaneous 13.7 g L-1 of biosurfactant production. The sugar utilization was further improved to > 98% in the case of semicontinuous operation employing a fill-and-draw strategy. The exponential phase got extended up to 18 days and a total of 13 L of media was fed in the semicontinuous operation of 21 days as compared to 1.5 L of working volume in the batch reactor. The biosurfactant yield was enhanced by 1.5 folds and was found to be 0.97 g g-1. The produced biosurfactant was identified as a lipopeptide. The interfacial properties of the biosurfactant along with colloidal and thermal stability have been investigated. The critical micelle concentration of the produced biosurfactant was 70 mg L-1. The present study highlighted the efficient utilization of molasses for the production of biosurfactant, an alternative metabolite, in a semicontinuous mode of bioreactor.

Abstract
The search for sustainable alternatives to the production of chemicals using renewable substrates and natural processes has been widely encouraged. Microbial surfactants or biosurfactants are surface-active compounds synthesized by fungi, yeasts, and bacteria. Due to their great metabolic versatility, bacteria are the most traditional and well-known microbial surfactant producers, being Bacillus and Pseudomonas species their typical representatives. To be successfully applied in industry, surfactants need to maintain stability under the harsh environmental conditions present in manufacturing processes; thus, the prospection of biosurfactants derived from extremophiles is a promising strategy to the discovery of novel and useful molecules. Bacterial surfactants show interesting properties suitable for a range of applications in the oil industry, food, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, bioremediation, and more recently, nanotechnology. In addition, they can be synthesized using renewable resources as substrates, contributing to the circular economy and sustainability. The article presents a general and updated review of bacterial-derived biosurfactants, focusing on the potential of some groups that are still underexploited, as well as, recent trends and contributions of these versatile biomolecules to circular bioeconomy and nanotechnology.

Abstract
The use of non-conventional carbon sources for biosurfactant-producing microorganisms is a promising alternative in fermentation to substitute costly substrates. So, the current research used pineapple peel as a cost-effective and renewable substrate because of its rich composition in minerals and sugars and high availability. Following a 22 full factorial design, a bacterial strain of Bacillus subtilis produced biosurfactants in fermentative media containing different concentrations of glucose and concentrated pineapple peel juice (CPPJ). The influence of these two independent variables was evaluated according to three different responses: surface tension reduction rate (STRR), emulsification index (EI24), and concentration of semi-purified biosurfactant (SPB). The maximum value for STRR (57.63%) was obtained in media containing 0.58% glucose (w/v) and 5.82% CPPJ (v/v), while the highest EI24 response (58.60%) was observed at 2% glucose (w/v) and 20% CPPJ (v/v) and maximum SPB (1.28 g/L) at 3.42% glucose (w/v) and 34.18% CPPJ (v/v). Statistical analysis indicated that the CPPJ variable mostly influenced the STRR and SPB responses, whereas the EI24 was significantly influenced by pineapple peel juice and glucose contents.

Abstract
This review is the tenth update of the original article published in 1999 on the application of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry to the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2020. Also included are papers that describe methods appropriate to analysis by MALDI, such as sample preparation techniques, even though the ionization method is not MALDI. The review is basically divided into three sections: (1) general aspects such as theory of the MALDI process, matrices, derivatization, MALDI imaging, fragmentation, quantification and the use of arrays. (2) Applications to various structural types such as oligo- and polysaccharides, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycosides and biopharmaceuticals, and (3) other areas such as medicine, industrial processes and glycan synthesis where MALDI is extensively used. Much of the material relating to applications is presented in tabular form. The reported work shows increasing use of incorporation of new techniques such as ion mobility and the enormous impact that MALDI imaging is having. MALDI, although invented nearly 40 years ago is still an ideal technique for carbohydrate analysis and advancements in the technique and range of applications show little sign of diminishing.

Abstract
Crude oil bioremediation requires a correct selection of potential biodegraders to address the hazard. The present study investigates biodegradation kinetics of single aliphatic (Hexadecane, HEX), aromatic (Phenanthrene, PHE), and binary mixture (HEX + PHE) as co-contaminants by axenic cultures of A. fabrum SLAJ 731, B. subtilis RSL2 and P. aeruginosa P7815 and their consortium. A proposed integrated kinetic model combining first-order exponential decay and the Monod equation is well-fitted to degradation data. Maximum degradations of both the substrates were observed for microcosm, indicating synergistic effects of selected strains. The degradation rate indicated parallel utilization of HEX while serial utilization of PHE by selected strains. Maximum HEX and PHE degradations of 92.4 and 88.7 % were achieved by microconsortium, which increased to 97.2 and 91.9 % for the binary mixture. The biodegradation efficiencies of HEX and PHE were linearly correlated with Alkane hydroxylase and Catechol-2,3-dioxygenase activities, respectively.

Polyphasic Analysis Reveals Potential Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degradation and Biosurfactant Production by Rare Biosphere Thermophilic Bacteria From Deception Island, an Active Antarctic Volcano.

Abstract
Extreme temperature gradients in polar volcanoes are capable of selecting different types of extremophiles. Deception Island is a marine stratovolcano located in maritime Antarctica. The volcano has pronounced temperature gradients over very short distances, from as high as 100°C in the fumaroles to subzero next to the glaciers. These characteristics make Deception a promising source of a variety of bioproducts for use in different biotechnological areas. In this study, we isolated thermophilic bacteria from sediments in fumaroles at two geothermal sites on Deception Island with temperatures between 50 and 100°C, to evaluate the potential capacity of these bacteria to degrade petroleum hydrocarbons and produce biosurfactants under thermophilic conditions. We isolated 126 thermophilic bacterial strains and identified them molecularly as members of genera Geobacillus, Anoxybacillus, and Brevibacillus (all in phylum Firmicutes). Seventy-six strains grew in a culture medium supplemented with crude oil as the only carbon source, and 30 of them showed particularly good results for oil degradation. Of 50 strains tested for biosurfactant production, 13 showed good results, with an emulsification index of 50% or higher of a petroleum hydrocarbon source (crude oil and diesel), emulsification stability at 100°C, and positive results in drop-collapse, oil spreading, and hemolytic activity tests. Four of these isolates showed great capability of degrade crude oil: FB2_38 (Geobacillus), FB3_54 (Geobacillus), FB4_88 (Anoxybacillus), and WB1_122 (Geobacillus). Genomic analysis of the oil-degrading and biosurfactant-producer strain FB4_88 identified it as Anoxybacillus flavithermus, with a high genetic and functional diversity potential for biotechnological applications. These initial culturomic and genomic data suggest that thermophilic bacteria from this Antarctic volcano have potential applications in the petroleum industry, for bioremediation in extreme environments and for microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) in reservoirs. In addition, recovery of small-subunit rRNA from metagenomes of Deception Island showed that Firmicutes is not among the dominant phyla, indicating that these low-abundance microorganisms may be important for hydrocarbon degradation and biosurfactant production in the Deception Island volcanic sediments.

Abstract
Background Pseudomonas stutzeri S116 is a sulfur-oxidizing bacteria isolated from marine sludge. It exhibited excellent electricity generation as bioanode and biocathode applied in microbial fuel cells (MFCs). Complete genome sequencing of P. stutzeri and cyclic voltammetry method were performed to reveal its mechanism in microbial fuel cells system. Results This study indicated that the MFCs generated a maximum output voltage of 254.2 mV and 226.0 mV, and maximum power density of 765 mW/m2 and 656.6 mW/m2 respectively. Complete genome sequencing of P. stutzeri S116 was performed to indicate that most function genes showed high similarities with P. stutzeri, and its primary annotations were associated with energy production and conversion (6.84%), amino acid transport and metabolism (6.82%) and inorganic ion transport and metabolism (6.77%). Homology of 36 genes involved in oxidative phosphorylation was detected, which suggests the strain S116 possesses an integrated electron transport chain. Additionally, many genes encoding pilus-assembly proteins and redox mediators (riboflavin and phenazine) were detected in the databases. Thiosulfate oxidization and dissimilatory nitrate reduction were annotated in the sulfur metabolism pathway and nitrogen metabolism pathway, respectively. Gene function analysis and cyclic voltammetry indicated that P. stutzeri probably possesses cellular machinery such as cytochrome c and redox mediators and can perform extracellular electron transfer and produce electricity in MFCs. Conclusion The redox mediators secreted by P. stutzeri S116 were probably responsible for performance of MFCs. The critical genes and metabolic pathways involved in thiosulfate oxide and nitrate reduction were detected, which indicated that the strain can treat wastewater containing sulfide and nitrite efficiently.

Abstract
Plant saponins are attractive biosurfactants and have been used to enhance phytoremediation. There are only limited reports on saponins produced by bacteria. Here, we report structural and functional characterization of a novel saponin produced by Bacillus sp. IITD106. Biosurfactant production was determined by emulsion index, drop collapse, oil displacement and hemolytic assays. The biosurfactant was stable over a range of temperature (30 °C to 70 °C), salinity (0-150 g liter-1) and pH (4-10). The surface tension of the medium reduced from 58.89 mN/m to 27.29 mN/m using the isolated biosurfactant. Chromatographic analysis revealed the biosurfactant to be a glycolipid. LCMS, FT-IR and NMR analysis identified the biosurfactant to be a saponin containing two sugar groups and a 5 ringed triterpene sapogenin unit. Genome sequencing of the strain revealed the presence of genes responsible for biosynthesis of saponin. Statistical optimization of culture medium resulted in 9.3-fold increase in biosurfactant production. Kinetics study of biosurfactant production performed in a stirred tank batch bioreactor resulted in 6.04 g liter-1 and 6.9 g liter-1 biomass and biosurfactant concentration, respectively. The biosurfactant was found to solubilize polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The potential of cell free biosurfactant containing broth to enhance oil recovery was tested in a sand pack column and recovery of 63% of residual oil was observed. To our knowledge this is the first report of saponin production by any of the strains of Bacillus.

Abstract
The large pineapple's consumption and processing have generated a massive amount of waste yearly, which requires adequate treatment measures to avoid damages to the environment. Pineapple peel is one of the main residues obtained from this fruit and a promising strategy to take advantage of its potential is using it for biosurfactant production due to the peel's rich composition in fermentable sugars and nutrients, such as potassium and magnesium that favor the Bacillus subtilis growth and biosurfactant excretion as well. The current research performed a central composite design (CCD) with four independent variables (glucose, pineapple peel, potassium, and magnesium), evaluating substrates' influence on the surface tension reduction rate (STRR) and the emulsification index (EI24). The results indicated that pineapple peel has the necessary potential to act as a partial substitute for glucose and salt nutrients, minimizing the costs of supplementing with exogenous minerals. The highest surface tension reduction rate (57.744%) was obtained at 2.18% glucose (w/v); 14.67% pineapple peel (v/v); 2.38 g/L KH2PO4; and 0.15 g/L MgSO4.7H2O; whereas to obtain the maximum predicted value for EI24 (61.92%) the medium was composed by 2.24% glucose (w/v); 12.63% pineapple peel (v/v); 2.53 g/L KH2PO4; and 0.29 g/L MgSO4.7H2O.

Abstract
The present study summarizes the valorization of date flour by the production of lipopeptide biosurfactant (BioS) by Bacillus subtilis ZNI5 (MW091416). A Taguchi design permitted the formulation of a medium composed only of 6% date flour and 0.5% yeast extract within 2 days of incubation at 150 rpm with a maximal surface tension (ST) reduction of about 27.8 mN/m. The characterization of the lipopeptide shows a CMC value of about 400 mg/L with a minimal ST of 30 mN/m and an ability to disperse oil to about 80 mm at 800 mg/L. Having reduced phytotoxicity, the ZNI5 BioS and ZNI5 strain were assayed for Copper and Cobalt chelation and biosorption. The improvement of the germination index of radish seeds irrigated by the treated contaminated water showed the great potential application of ZNI5 lipopeptide in the bioremediation of heavy metals.

Biodegradation of waste cooking oil and simultaneous production of rhamnolipid biosurfactant by Pseudomonas aeruginosa P7815 in batch and fed-batch bioreactor. Bioprocess Biosyst Eng 2021; 45:309-319.

Abstract
Biosurfactants are non-toxic, surface-active biomolecules capable of reducing surface tension (ST) and emulsifying interface at a comparably lower concentration than commercial surfactants. Yet, poor yield, costlier substrates, and complex cultivation processes limit their commercial applications. This study focuses on producing biosurfactants by Pseudomonas aeruginosa P7815 in batch and fed-batch bioreactor systems using waste cooking oil (WCO) as the sole carbon source. The batch study showed a 92% of WCO biodegradation ability of P. aeruginosa producing 11 g L-1 of biosurfactant. To enhance this biosurfactant production, a fed-batch oil feeding strategy was opted to extend the stationary phase of the bacterium and minimize the effects of substrate deprivation. An enhanced biosurfactant production of 16 g L-1 (i.e. 1.5 times of batch study) was achieved at a feed rate of 5.7 g L-1d-1 with almost 94% of WCO biodegradation activity. The biosurfactant was characterized as rhamnolipid using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and its interfacial characterization showed ST reduction to 29 ± 1 mN m-1 and effective emulsification stability at pH value of 4, temperature up to 40 °C and salinity up to 40 g L-1. The biosurfactant exhibited antibacterial activity with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 100 µg mL-1 and 150 µg mL-1 for pathogenic E. hirae and E. coli, respectively. These findings suggest that biodegradation of WCO by P. aeruginosa in a fed-batch cultivation strategy is a potential alternative for the economical production of biosurfactants, which can be further explored for biomedical, cosmetics, and oil washing/recovery applications.

Abstract
The growing burden of waste disposal coupled with natural resource scarcity has renewed interest in the remediation, valorization, and/or repurposing of waste. Traditional approaches such as composting, anaerobic digestion, use in fertilizers or animal feed, or incineration for energy production extract very little value out of these waste streams. In contrast, waste valorization into fuels and other biochemicals via microbial fermentation is an area of growing interest. In this review, we discuss microbial valorization of nonconventional, aqueous waste streams such as food processing effluents, wastewater streams, and other industrial wastes. We categorize these waste streams as carbohydrate-rich food wastes, lipid-rich wastes, and other industrial wastes. Recent advances in microbial valorization of these nonconventional waste streams are highlighted, along with a discussion of the specific challenges and opportunities associated with impurities, nitrogen content, toxicity, and low productivity.

Abstract
Biosurfactants are a microbially synthesized alternative to synthetic surfactants, one of the most important bulk chemicals. Some yeast species are proven to be exceptional biosurfactant producers, while others are emerging producers. A set of factors affects the type, amount, and properties of the biosurfactant produced, as well as the environmental impact and costs of biosurfactant’s production. Exploring waste cooking oil as a substrate for biosurfactants’ production serves as an effective cost-cutting strategy, yet it has some limitations. This review explores the existing knowledge on utilizing waste cooking oil as a feedstock to produce glycolipid biosurfactants by yeast. The review focuses specifically on the differences created by using raw cooking oil or waste cooking oil as the substrate on the ability of various yeast species to synthesize sophorolipids, rhamnolipids, mannosylerythritol lipids, and other glycolipids and the substrate’s impact on the composition, properties, and limitations in the application of biosurfactants.

Abstract
Microbial bioremediation of oil-contaminated sites is still a challenge due to the slower rate and susceptibility of microbes to a higher concentration of oil. The poor bioavailability, hydrophobicity, and non-polar nature of oil slow down microbial biodegradation. In this study, biodegradation of crude oil is performed in fed-batch mode using an oil-degrader Pseudomonas aeruginosa to address the issue of substrate toxicity. The slower biodegradation was integrated with faster biosorption for effective oil remediation. Highly fibrous and porous sugarcane bagasse was surface modified with hydrophobic octyl groups to improve the surface-oil interactions. The microbe showed 2 folds enhanced oil degradation in the fed-batch study, which was further increased by 1·5 folds in the integrated biosorption coupled biodegradation approach. The biosorption-assisted biodegradation approach supported the microbial growth to 2 folds higher than the fed-batch study without biosorbent. The analysis of biosurfactant production indicated the 3 folds higher concentration in fed-batch modes as compared to batch study. In the integrated strategy, the concentration of contaminant (oil) reduces to quite a tolerable level to microbes, which improved effective metabolism and thus overall biodegradation. This study puts forward a promising strategy for improved degradation of hazardous hydrophobic contaminants in a sustainable, economic and eco-friendly manner.

Abstract
The potential toxicity of hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), its persistence in the environment, and its high bioaccumulation characteristics pose a need to remediate HBCD in the environment. Bacillus cereus and B. subtilis species complexes we isolated from Taiwan soil are capable of degrading HBCD. B. cereus can degrade HBCD with a half-life only 0.911 days. The highest efficiency of HBCD degradation by B. cereus was achieved at pH 7.0, 35 °C, and 0.10 ppm HBCD. The removal mechanism of HBCD by B. cereus is debromination and its pathway was proposed. The addition of surfactant Tween 60 improved HBCD removal but the addition of CaO2, slow-releasing oxygen, did not. These findings can facilitate the bioremediation of HBCD in the environment.

Abstract
Yield and cost are two major factors limiting the widespread use of rhamnolipids (RLs). In the present study, waste frying oil (WFO) was used as the sole carbon source to produce environmentally friendly RLs by Pseudomonas aeruginosa NY3. The Plackett-Burman design (PBD) and Box-Behnken design (BBD) methods were used to maximize the production yield of RL. The PBD results showed that the concentrations of NaNO3 , Na2 HPO4 , and trace elements were the key factors affecting the yield of RL. Furthermore, the BBD results showed that at NaNO3 , Na2 HPO4 , and trace elements concentrations were 4.95, 0.66, and 0.64 mL/L, respectively, the average RL yield reached 9.15 ± 0.52 g/L, 1.58-fold higher than that observed before optimization. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and liquid chromatography-ion trap-time of flight mass spectrometry (LCMS-IT-TOF) were used to elucidate the diversity of RL congeners. The results showed that, after optimization, the RL congener diversity increased, and the major RL constituent was converted from di-RLs (64.04%) to mono-RLs (60.44%). These results suggested that the concentrations of the components contained in the culture medium of P. aeruginosa NY3 influenced not only the yield of RL, but also its congener distribution.

Abstract
The cleaning activity of surface-active agents such as rhamnolipids (RLs) requires utmost effectiveness and is employed abundantly in various industries, particularly laundry cleaning, detergents, and cosmetics. In the current study, RLs were produced from Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from oil-contaminated soil using a minimal medium amended with agro-industrial by-products of refinery vegetable oil wastes (comprising of unsaturated types of fatty acids as determined by GC analysis) and dairy whey. The results showed that an amount of 5.72 g/L of RLs were obtained, while lower concentrations were obtained using chemically defined carbon sources. Ten congeners of mono- and di-RLs were detected by LC-MS, and they reduced the surface tension of water to 26 mN/m with a critical micelle concentration of 33 mg/L. Furthermore, the produced RLs showed promising cleaning and detergency properties in the removal of different stains on tested fabrics with a Stain Removal Index (SRI) of 17.45%. Moreover, an efficient cleaning was obtained when RLs were applied to a liquid detergent formulation model, and a cleaning power (∆E) of 245.95 and SRI of 36.28% were achieved. The present work showed that the produced RLs could be exploited as a powerful and alternative eco-friendly cleaning agent in many industries.

Abstract
This study aims to unveil the effect of biosurfactant as stimulant in crude oil bioremediation. Isolated oil-degrading strain, B. subtilis RSL 2 was optimized for the maximum oil degradation and biosurfactant production using Response surface methodology. The produced biosurfactant was characterized and investigated for its effect on microbial oil degradation in two modes (a) sequential and (b) simultaneous. The strain produced 3.5 g/L of biosurfactant at pH 4.0, 25 °C, using 1 g/L crude oil as the only C-source in 7 days, which was characterized as lipopeptide with a critical micelle concentration (CMC) of 0.5 g/L. The biosurfactant improved surface wettability of a hydrophobic substrate i.e. increased surface energy from 30 ± 1 to 35 ± 1 mJ/m2. Further, the simultaneous feed of biosurfactant at 0.5 CMC enhanced oil biodegradation (72%) and biosurfactant production (5.2 g/L) by about 1.6 times than the sequential mode due to improvement in mobilization of oil thus making it more bioavailable.
