“…Various thiosulphate concentrations were tested. 5 mM and 10 mM was set as minimum concentration (Olguin-Lora et al, 2011), 40 mM as initial concentration and 100 mM as a maximum concentration (Makzum et al, 2016). The cultures media were set at pH 8.0 (optimum pH) and incubated at a temperature of 30 °C (optimum temperature) with 160 rpm agitation speed for 7 d. For bacterial growth, 1 mL samples were withdrawn every 24 h and optical density was measured by spectrophotometer at 660 nm.…”

In this study, the isolation of sulphur oxidising bacteria (SOB) from hot spring in Malaysia was carried out in an enrichment culture using sodium thiosulphate as a sole energy and CO 2 as a sole carbon source. A total number of 80 SOB isolates were obtained from the agar plate and considered as positive SOB due to their abilities using thiosulphate for growth. All the isolates were initially screened for their fast growths in liquid medium and 13 isolates were selected for another screening process. Three SOB isolates namely isolate AH18, AH25, and AH28 were selected based on their abilities to grow faster, produce the highest sulphate ion and reducing the pH in the growth medium. The cells were Gram-negative and short rod-shaped. The effects of various variables including temperature (25-45 °C), pH (4-9), sodium thiosulphate concentrations (4-100 mM) and metabolic characteristic were evaluated on bacterial growth and their sulphur oxidation activities. The optimum pH of all the potential isolates occurred at pH 8.0. Meanwhile, the optimum temperature for isolate AH18, AH25 and AH28 occurred at 45 °C, 30 °C, and 30-45 °C, respectively. The three isolates were classified as facultative chemolithotroph with the capability of growth in thiosulphate concentration as high as 100 mM. Therefore, given the ability in the oxidation of thiosulphate, temperature and pH adaptabilities, with the metabolic flexibilities of isolates AH18, AH25, and AH28 could be a good H 2 S biological deodorizing candidate.

“…A naturally adapted consortium to salinity conditions could represent the best alternative to treat saline effluents containing sulfide, nitrate, and C‐compounds. Certainly, previous reports have documented the use of halophilic or halotolerant microorganisms for the removal of sulfide , C‐pollutants , and nitrate ; nevertheless, to our knowledge, the simultaneous removal of these pollutants by these type of microorganisms has never been reported. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the capacity of a marine consortium for the simultaneous removal of sulfide, nitrate, and p ‐cresol.…”

The simultaneous removal of sulfide and p-cresol was carried out by using a marine-denitrifying consortium collected in the coastal zone of Sonora, Mexico. Different experimental conditions were used to evaluate the capacity of the consortium to simultaneously eliminate nitrate, sulfide, and p-cresol. For instance, the first set of assays was conducted at different sulfide concentrations (20, 50, and 100 mg S(2À) L(À1) ), with a fixed concentration of p-cresol (45 mg C L(À1) ). The second set of assays was developed at different concentrations of p-cresol (45, 75, and 100 mg C L(-1) ), in the presence of 20 mg S(2À) L(À1) . In all cases, the concentration of nitrate was stoichiometrically added for the complete oxidization of the substrates. The results showed removal efficiencies up to 92% for p-cresol and nitrate at 20 and 50 mg S(2À) L(À1) ; whereas at 100 mg S(2À) L(À1) removal efficiencies were 77% and 59% for p-cresol and nitrate, respectively. On the other hand, sulfide (20 mg L(À1) ) was completely removed under different concentrations of p-cresol tested, with a partial accumulation of nitrite according to the increment of p-cresol concentration. The results obtained indicate that the marine consortium was able to simultaneously remove the pollutants studied.

International audienceBACKGROUND: This study deals with the potential of biological processes combining biofiltration and a biotrickling filter to treat a mixture of sulphur reduced compounds (SRC) including dimethylsulfide (DMS), dimethyldisulfide (DMDS) and hydrogen sulphide (H2S). The first step in this work is to evaluate the influence of pH on SRC biodegradation in microcosms seeded with planktonic biomass from activated sludge of a rendering facility. In a second step, for each tested pH, evaluation of the influence of pH on total bacterial community diversity and structure has been investigated using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE). RESULTS: At pH 7 and 5, H2S, DMS and DMDS were completely removed. In return, the abatement of DMS and DMDS is low, around 20%, for pH 3 and pH 1 microcosms. The selective pressure imposed in the microcosms (concentration and pH) is sufficient to influence strongly the community diversity and composition. The inoculum community seems to make a significant contribution to the 67-day community in the considered pH microcosms. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that distinct communities from different inocula can achieve high and stable functionality. The results obtained provide relevant information for improving the treatment of different SRC using biotrickling filter/biofilter combination. Copyright (c) 2012 Society of Chemical Industr
