Studies on Chromate Removal by Chromium-Resistant Bacillus sp. Isolated from Tannery Effluent
A chromate-removing strain was isolated from spent chrome effluent and identified as Bacillus circulans strain MN1. The isolated strain was studied for resistance to Cr (VI) and its ability to remove Cr (VI). The strain was found to tolerate Cr (VI) concentration as high as 4500 mg/L, but the cells growth was heavily influenced when initial Cr (VI) concentration was increased between 1110 mg/L ...
متن کاملHexavalent chromium reduction by chromate-resistant haloalkaliphilic Halomonas sp. M-Cr newly isolated from tannery effluent
The current study aimed to isolate and characterize a chromate-resistant bacterium from tannery effluent, able to reduce Cr(VI) aerobically at high pH and salinity. Environmental contamination by hexavalent chromium, Cr(VI), presents a serious public health problem. Enrichment led to the isolation of 12 bacteria displaying different degrees of chromate reduction. Phenotypic characterization and...
متن کاملRemoval of Chromium (VI) in Tannery Wastewater by Bacillus cereus
Bacillus cereus was used to remove Cr(VI) in tannery wastewater containing medium at different initial Cr(VI) concentration, temperature, pH and biomass to get better conditions. At the optimum condition, the Cr(VI) in tannery wastewater was treated by each component of the cells to detect the capacity of the components for the Cr(VI) reduction. Also, the Bacillus cereus was continuous cultured...
متن کاملA Study on removal of chromium from tannery effluent treatment of chrome tanning waste water using tannery solid waste
This study illustrates the process of removal of chromium from chrome tanning waste-water by fly ash which was drive from chrome shaving dust. This experiment was carried out in a batch process with laboratory prepared adsorbent samples and chrome tanning water collected from local tanneries. The influence of various factors likes adsorbent doses, contact time, and initial concentration of chro...
متن کاملOccurrence of chromium resistant thermotolerant coliforms in tannery effluent.
Twenty six thermotolerant strains resistant to high levels of chromium (50-250 microg/ml) were isolated from treated tannery effluent. They were also found resistant to multiple heavy metals and antibiotics. Majority of them were resistant to copper and bacitracin. Nine strains representing different resistance patterns were selected for plasmid profile and conjugation studies. Agarose gel elec...
