Pentachlorophenol degradation: a pure bacterial culture and an epilithic microbial consortium.
The steady-state growth of a Flavobacterium strain known to utilize pentachlorophenol (PCP) was examined when cellobiose and PCP simultaneously limited its growth rate in continuous culture. A concentration of 600 mg of PCP per liter in influent medium could be continuously degraded without affecting steady-state growth. We measured specific rates of PCP carbon degradation as high as 0.15 +/- 0...
متن کاملA novel microbial consortium from sheep compost for decolorization and degradation of Congo red
Congo red is a synthetic azo-dye dye with many industrial applications. The effluents containing azo dyes are causing several environmental hazards and thus should be treated prior to their discharge. The present work investigates the possible use of a novel microbial consortium from sheep compost for the decolorization of Congo red dye. The effect of different parameters including contact time...
متن کاملMicrobial Degradation of Methyl Parathion by a Soil Bacterial Isolate and Consortium
Pesticide consumption causes, pollution of groundwater, surface water and soil.Its use is increasing at an alarming rate, for increasingthe agricultural yield. Their extensive use exerts profound and deleterious effects on wildlife populations and humans. Methyl parathion(MP) is one such pesticide which is widely used throughout the world to protect the crops from chewing and sucking insects su...
متن کاملMicrobial Enhanced Oil Recovery, Wettability Alteration and Interfacial Tension Reduction by an Efficient Bacterial Consortium, ERCPPI-2
In the present study, the potential of a bacterial consortium of Enterobacter cloacae and Pseudomonas sp. (ERCPPI-2) for microbial enhanced oil recovery was investigated. Various mechanisms of enhanced oil recovery (EOR) as a result of using ERCPPI-2 and its metabolic products were studied in detail. The obtained results showed that under simulated reservoir ...
متن کاملMicrobial Degradation of Reactive Orange M2R Dye by Bacterial Consortium ETL-A
Textile and Textile dyestuff industries discharge effluent having high Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and colour, making it difficult to treat the effluent completely. Several Physical, Chemical and Biological treatment methods are available to treat such an effluent. However, in recent year’s biological treatment with focus on bacteria have been drawing a tremendous attention due to their abilit...
