Bacterial community dynamics during start-up of a trickle-bed bioreactor degrading aromatic compounds.
This study was performed with a laboratory-scale fixed-bed bioreactor degrading a mixture of aromatic compounds (Solvesso100). The starter culture for the bioreactor was prepared in a fermentor with a wastewater sample of a care painting facility as the inoculum and Solvesso100 as the sole carbon source. The bacterial community dynamics in the fermentor and the bioreactor were examined by a con...
متن کاملAn analysis of a trickle-bed bioreactor: carbon disulfide removal.
An analysis of the local processes occurring in a trickle-bed bioreactor (TBB) with a first-order bioreaction shows that the identification of the TBB operating regime requires knowledge of the substrate concentration in the liquid phase. If the substrate liquid concentration is close to 0, the rate-controlling step is mass transfer at the gas-liquid interface; when it is close to the value in ...
متن کاملEffect of liquid flow rate and bed void fraction on the hydrodynamics and performance of a trickle-bed bioreactor Effect of liquid flow rate and bed void fraction on the hydrodynamics and performance of a trickle-bed bioreactor
Hydrodynamics has a strong influence on substrate elimination capacity in trickle-bed bioreactors (TBB). The present study reports the influence of liquid mass flow rate and bed void fraction on the TBB liquid residence time distribution (RTD), gas-liquid pressure drop, liquid hold-up, and biofilm wetting efficiency. Most RTD are well represented by a dispersion model. It is also shown that the...
متن کاملBacterial Degradation of Aromatic Compounds
Aromatic compounds are among the most prevalent and persistent pollutants in the environment. Petroleum-contaminated soil and sediment commonly contain a mixture of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heterocyclic aromatics. Aromatics derived from industrial activities often have functional groups such as alkyls, halogens and nitro groups. Biodegradation is a major mechanism of removal ...
متن کاملDecolorization of Maxilon-Red by Kissiris Immobilized Phanerochaete Chrysosporium in a Trickle-Bed Bioreactor-Involvement of Ligninolytic Enzymes
The decolorization of Maxilon-red dye by Kissiris immobilized Phanerochaete chrysosporium in the trickle-bed reactor (TBR) using the basal nitrogen-limited growth medium was studied. The influence of the superficial liquid velocity (SLV) on the decolorizing ability of the fungus was examined at four SLVs (cm sec-1): 0.05, 0.075, 0.1, and 0.15. Maximum level of the decolorizing ac...
