Biotransformation of phosphogypsum on distillery decoctions (Preliminary results).
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents the activity of anaerobic bacterial communities isolated from soil polluted by aircraft fuel on distillery decoctions with phosphogypsum. The microorganisms were selected using the microcosms method, and then enriched on Postgate medium with ethanol. The isolated communities became the inoculum to establish a culture on potato and rye distillery decoctions. The obtained results show that a simultaneous removal of two industrial wastes such as phosphogypsum and distillery decoctions is possible. The introduction of a inoculation comprising a selected anaerobic bacterial community into the culture does not influence the increase of the biotransformation process efficiency.

Biotransformation of phosphogypsum by bacteria isolated from petroleum-refining wastewaters.
The biotransformation of phosphogypsum in cultures of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) isolated from crude petroleum-refining wastewaters or purified using activated sludge method was studied. Selection was with the microcosms method on Postgate and minimal medium with different carbon sources, Emerson medium and petroleum-refining wastewaters. Highest hydrogen sulfide production, in excess of 5...

The paper presents the suitability of flyash-limephosphogypsum composite for its use in road pavements. The content of lime and phosphogypsum was varied from 2 to 10% and 0.5 to 4% respectively in flyash. The specimen prepared was cured for 7, 28, 56 and 90 days with burlap method of curing. Compaction tests were conducted on different flyash-lime-phosphogypsum composite and these results were ...
متن کاملMicrobial Diversity in Sulfate-Reducing Marine Sediment Enrichment Cultures Associated with Anaerobic Biotransformation of Coastal Stockpiled Phosphogypsum (Sfax, Tunisia)
Anaerobic biotechnology using sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) is a promising alternative for reducing long-term stockpiling of phosphogypsum (PG), an acidic (pH ~3) by-product of the phosphate fertilizer industries containing high amounts of sulfate. The main objective of this study was to evaluate, for the first time, the diversity and ability of anaerobic marine microorganisms to convert sulf...
متن کاملImpact of Distillery Effluent and Salts on Hydraulic Conductivity of a Sandy Loam Soil
Irrigation with distillery effluent, besides influencing crop yield, may have considerable impact on physical properties of soil because of its high salt and organic carbon contents. This experimental study was conducted to evaluate the effect of distillery effluent on hydraulic conductivity of a sandy loam alluvial soil and compare the effect of inorganic salts of potassium (K) with that of di...
متن کاملUnconfined Compressive Strength of Bentonite-Lime-Phosphogypsum Mixture Reinforced with Sisal Fibers
This paper presents the effect of sisal fibers on the unconfined compressive strength of bentonite. The present study is aimed at determining the behavior of bentonite-lime-phosphogypsum reinforced with sisal fibers in a random manner. The sisal fiber content was varied from 0.5 to 2 %. The results indicated that the unconfined compressive strength of bentonite can be increased by the addition ...
