Bioremediation of Chromium (Vi) from Textile Industry’s Effluent and Contaminated Soil Using Pseudomonas putida
نویسنده
چکیده
Nine bacterial colonies were screened for the Cr(VI) removal efficiency and out of these three bacterial strains Pseudomonas putida, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus sp. were isolated from soil and used to remove Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. The effect of time and concentrations on the removal rate of hexavalent chromium were studied using batch experiment. Maximum Cr (VI) removal was noted 75.0% by Bacillus sp. at 10mg/l, 69.70% by Pseudomonas aeruginosa at 40mg/l and 90.88% by Pseudomonas putida at 10mg/l of synthetic solution, during 96 hours. Among these three bacteria, the maximum Cr(VI) removal was reported by Pseudomonas putida on lower concentration. On the basis of highest removal rate, Pseudomonas putida was selected and used for further chromium removal from samples. It was found to be removed the highest Cr(VI) by 82.92%, from effluent and 74.41% from soil during 96 hours. The present study depicts that bacteria removes chromium efficiently and this could be used for industrial waste management and other environmental contaminants.

متن کاملBioremediation Of Heavy Metal Toxicity-With Special Reference To Chromium
All metals are toxic and our bodies require special transport and handling mechanisms to keep them from harming us. The toxicity occurs in humans due to environmental pollution via soil or water contamination or due to occupational exposure. Some of these metals are useful to us in low concentrations but are highly toxic in higher concentrations. These metal toxicity cause serious morbidity and...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Pseudomonas putida CBF10-2, a Soil Isolate with Bioremediation Potential in Agricultural and Industrial Environmental Settings
Pseudomonas putida CBF10-2 is a microorganism isolated from farmland soil in Fairchild, TX, found to degrade high-impact xenobiotics, including organophosphate insecticides, petroleum hydrocarbons, and both monocyclic and polycyclic aromatics. The versatility of CBF10-2 makes it useful for multipurpose bioremediation of contaminated sites in agricultural and industrial environments.
متن کاملIsolation and Characterization of Various Fungal Strains from Textile Effluent for Their Use in Bioremediation
Bioremediation is an inexpensive mean to remove hazardous metal ions from the contaminated effluent. Effluent from the local textile industry was characterized for the incidence of fungal strains and its physiochemical properties were investigated. Sampling was done spanning a distance of five km from the effluent’s discharge point. Effluent was analyzed and highest colony forming units per mL ...
متن کاملRemediation of Chromium-Contaminated Soils Using Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strain BS2
The bioremediation of chromium-contaminated soil by a rhamnolipid biosurfactant produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain BS2 has been explored through column studies using uncontaminated soil spiked with toxic concentrations of heavy metals i.e. 1000 mg/kg chromium. Results on removal of chromium from the spiked soil by using di-rhamnolipid and tap water have shown a high potential of di-rhamn...
