Palm oil mill effluent degradation by a novel strain of Bacillus sp. isolated from contaminated environment

Case Studies in Chemical and Environmental Engineering, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 9, С. 100637 - 100637

Опубликована: Янв. 29, 2024

Palm oil mill effluent (POME) has a high concentration of organic matter and total suspended solids. However, improper disposal refining wastes containing oils, fats, sludge can cause environmental damage harm human health due to their toxic, carcinogenic, polluting effects. This research was carried out solve the harmful effects caused by release POME environment. The goal this study isolate naturally occurring bacterium that could degrade use it as single carbon source. Bacteria were isolated from POME-contaminated medium using an enrichment technique. Judging 16S rRNA partial gene sequencing, morphological, biochemical, molecular identification methods, bacteria identified novel Bacillus sp. substrate concentration, inoculum size, pH, temperature, incubation time on bacterial growth investigated "one factor at time" (OFAT) approach. optimal conditions for bacterium's found be pH 7.5, 35 °C, 20 % v/v 6 96 hours incubation. is capable reducing 84 COD 91 BOD sample. degradation potential suggests used good option bioremediation POME-polluted areas.
