Bioremediation of Petroleum Refinery Wastewater Effluent via Augmented Native Microbes
In Nigeria, like other developing countries, industries discharge their wastewater without effective treatment due to the high cost of existing treatment technologies. Wastewater containing petroleum hydrocarbon is highly toxic and pose a great danger to the nearby communities. Therefore, there is a need for a more robust and cost effective treatment technology. In this research, a study was ca...
متن کاملNumerical taxonomy of heavy metal-tolerant nonhalophilic bacteria isolated from hypersaline environments.
A total of 232 metal-tolerant bacterial strains were isolated from water and sediment samples collected in different hypersaline environments located in Cádiz, Huelva and Morón de la Frontera (Spain). They were isolated on a medium containing mercury, chromium, cadmium, copper or zinc. These halotolerant isolates were analyzed by numerical taxonomy techniques by using the simple matching (SSM) ...
متن کاملScreening of Paper Industry Effluent for Heavy Metal Absorbing Bacteria
The present study was conceptualized to evaluate the heavy metal absorbing potential of microbes isolated from paper industry effluent. The effluent was used as the source sample, after screening morpho-metrically ten strains were cultured and sub cultured to achieve the pure discrete colonies. Out of ten discrete colonies two were found to have the heavy metal absorbing ability. These two bact...
متن کاملAssessment of Biodegradation Ability of Aspergillus Niger Isolated From Mechanic Workshops Soilon Refinery Effluent and Petroleum Hydrocarbons
The environment is considered as man’s important asset that must be protected for his life support. Regrettably the situation is different where oil refinery and petrochemical plants operate. Environmental pollution in the form of emissions and effluent discharge in these area poses serious threat to the ecosystem particularly soil, often with undesirable effects. The study collected soil sampl...
متن کاملBioremediation Activity of Pb (II) Resistance Citrobacter sp. MKH2 Isolated from Heavy Metal Contaminated Sites in Iran
Heavy metal pollution all around the world has become a major environmental concern and the bioremediation of polluted environments is an increasingly popular strategy due to both its efficiency and safety. In this study, a bacterial strain resistant to heavy metal was isolated from metal contaminated sites. Strain MKH2 was removed Pb (II) with 95.06%. This isolate was also resistant to zinc, c...
