Isolation of chromium resistant Bacillus sp. MRKV and reduction of hexavalent chromium potassium dichromate
The ability of Bacillus sp. MRKV isolated from tannery effluent which shows resistant towards hexavalent chromium potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) was evaluated in this study. The bacterial strain was assayed for its reducing ability towards K2Cr2O7. The study revealed that the isolated strain has the ability to reduce the hexavalent chromium and the optimal conditions required for the chromium r...
متن کاملHexavalent chromium reduction by bacteria from tannery effluent.
Chromium is generated from several industrial processes. It occurs in different oxidation states, but Cr(III) and Cr(VI) are the most common ones. Cr(VI) is a toxic, soluble environmental contaminant. Some bacteria are able to reduce hexavalent chromium to the insoluble and less toxic Cr(III), and thus chromate bioremediation is of considerable interest. An indigenous chromium-reducing bacteria...

متن کاملisolation and identification of chromium (vi)-resistant bacteria from soltan abad river sediments (shiraz-iran)
conclusions p. aeruginosa and s. marcescens can be good candidates for the detoxification of cr (vi) in soltan abad river. results the results indicated that pseudomonas aeruginosa and serratia marcescens were the most resistant bacteria with mics of 200 and 150 mg/l, respectively. both bacteria completely reduced 25 and 50 mg/l of cr (vi) in 36 hours and 48 hours, respectively. the growth rate...
متن کاملPreliminary Assessment of Chromium Emissions from Chromium Electroplating Faci Lities
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) intends to add either chromium or hexavalent chromium to the list of hazardous air pollutants under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act. A preliminary assessment performed by EPA has identified several categories of stationary sources as emitters of significant quantities of chromium to the atmosphere and for which the proposal o f national e...
