The aerobic dechlorination activities of two bacterial species isolated from a refuse dumpsite in Nigeria.
Two bacterial species isolated using enrichment culture techniques from the topsoil of a main refuse dumpsite in Nigeria were assessed for their dehalogenation potentials. The bacterial isolates were identified as belonging to the Bacillus and Pseudomonas genera. Axenic cultures of the isolates utilized monochloroacetic acid (MCA), trichloroacetic acid (TCA), trichloromethane (CHCl3) and tetrac...

متن کاملHeavy Metals Tolerance Potential of Fungi Species Isolated from Gold Mine Tailings in Ghana
Introduction: Heavy metal contamination has necessitated a less expensive and non-destructive clean-up technique such as mycoremediation. This study aimed to isolate, identify, and evaluate the tolerance of fungi species in different concentrations of heavy metals for their potential use in bioremediation. Materials and Methods: Fungi were isolated by serial dilution and spread plate technique...
متن کاملEvaluation of Field Capacity of Municipal Refuse Dumpsite (a Case Study of University of Maiduguri Dumpsite)
This paper presents the results of an evaluation of Field Capacity of municipal solid waste at the University of Maiduguri dumpsite. The work describes the methodology and the devices designed for the determination of field capacity of municipal solid waste, in which a lysimeter was constructed to simulate the activities within the refuse dumpsite. The method consisted of applying dynamic compa...
متن کاملPotential bioremediation of mercury-contaminated substrate using filamentous fungi isolated from forest soil.
The use of filamentous fungi in bioremediation of heavy metal contamination has been developed recently. This research aims to observe the capability of filamentous fungi isolated from forest soil for bioremediation of mercury contamination in a substrate. Six fungal strains were selected based on their capability to grow in 25 mg/L Hg(2+)-contaminated potato dextrose agar plates. Fungal strain...
