“…In contrast, permanganate oxidation occurs via direct electron transfer without the generation of oxygen (Wiberg and Saegebarth 1957); however, the by-product of chemical oxidation, manganese oxide, can inhibit reductive dechlorination by acting as an alternative electron acceptor (Hood et al 2006). In spite of this, permanganate is often preferred for studies where anaerobic conditions must be regenerated (Hrapovic et al 2005;Jones et al 2009;Sahl et al 2007;Tsai et al 2009c). …”

“…The ubiquity of hydrocarbon-utilizing bacteria indicates that natural attenuation, that is, the inherent biodegrading ability of contaminated soils, will, in most cases, occur without intervention (Surridge et al 2009). That said, a number of technologies aim to increase the rate of bioremediation, either by increasing the bioavailability of contaminants through the application of surfactants (Menendez-Vega et al 2007;Tsai et al 2009c;Volkering et al 1998) or by creating conditions ideal for general microbial growth and for specific reactivity to a compound. In the case of petroleum-based hydrocarbons, these include biostimulation with nutrients (Gallego et al 2001;Menendez-Vega et al 2007) and electron acceptor addition, for example, by bioventing to provide oxygen to accelerate aerobic degradation pathways (Hoeppel et al 1991;Malina and Grotenhuis 2000).…”

Purpose In order to provide highly effective yet relatively inexpensive strategies for the remediation of recalcitrant organic contaminants, research has focused on in situ treatment technologies. Recent investigation has shown that coupling two common treatments-in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) and in situ bioremediation-is not only feasible but in many cases provides more efficient and extensive cleanup of contaminated subsurfaces. However, the combination of aggressive chemical oxidants with delicate microbial activity requires a thorough understanding of the impact of each step on soil geochemistry, biota, and contaminant dynamics. In an attempt to optimize coupled chemical and biological remediation, investigations have focused on elucidating parameters that are necessary to successful treatment. In the case of ISCO, the impacts of chemical oxidant type and quantity on bacterial populations and contaminant biodegradability have been considered. Similarly, biostimulation, that is, the adjustment of redox conditions and amendment with electron donors, acceptors, and nutrients, and bioaugmentation have been used to expedite the regeneration of biodegradation following oxidation. The purpose of this review is to integrate recent results on coupled ISCO and bioremediation with the goal of identifying parameters necessary to an optimized biphasic treatment and areas that require additional focus. Conclusions and recommendations Although a biphasic treatment consisting of ISCO and bioremediation is a feasible in situ remediation technology, a thorough understanding of the impact of chemical oxidation on subsequent microbial activity is required. Such an understanding is essential as coupled chemical and biological remediation technologies are further optimized.

“…Biological treatment of wastewater was often considered the most economical option when compared with other treatment options (Marco et al 1997) and recently some efforts have been made through the use of biosorbents for the treatment of wastewaters contaminated with solvents (Osuna et al 2008;Wu et al 2007;Tsai et al 2009;Wang and Tseng 2009). The possibility of wastewater to undergo biodegradation is dependent on many factors, such as concentration of contaminants and their chemical structure, water matrix, pH, and substrate/ co-substrate ratio (Al-Momani et al 2010).…”

Kinetics of biodegradation of diethylketone by Arthrobacter viscosus

2011

The performance of an Arthrobacter viscosus culture to remove diethylketone from aqueous solutions was evaluated. The effect of initial concentration of diethylketone on the growth of the bacteria was evaluated for the range of concentration between 0 and 4.8 g/l, aiming to evaluate a possible toxicological effect. The maximum specific growth rate achieved is 0.221 h(-1) at 1.6 g/l of initial diethylketone concentration, suggesting that for higher concentrations an inhibitory effect on the growth occurs. The removal percentages obtained were approximately 88%, for all the initial concentrations tested. The kinetic parameters were estimated using four growth kinetic models for biodegradation of organic compounds available in the literature. The experimental data found is well fitted by the Haldane model (R (2) = 1) as compared to Monod model (R (2) = 0.99), Powell (R (2) = 0.82) and Loung model (R (2) = 0.95). The biodegradation of diethylketone using concentrated biomass was studied for an initial diethylketone concentration ranging from 0.8-3.9 g/l in a batch with recirculation mode of operation. The biodegradation rate found followed the pseudo-second order kinetics and the resulting kinetic parameters are reported. The removal percentages obtained were approximately 100%, for all the initial concentrations tested, suggesting that the increment on the biomass concentration allows better results in terms of removal of diethylketone. This study showed that these bacteria are very effective for the removal of diethylketone from aqueous solutions.
