Adaptation behaviour of bacterial species and impact on the biodegradation of biodiesel-diesel

Abstract: -Two bacteria, namely Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were exposed to different concentrations of diesel to increase their adaptation to the fossil fuel, and were used for the degradation of diesel-biodiesel blends. The biodegradation rate was evaluated using the redox indicator 2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol (DCPIP) test and gravimetric analysis. The preliminary exposure of cells to diesel proved to improve their biodegradation capacities, and exposure to a higher concentration (70%) of diesel res… Show more

“…As Gram-positive, endospore-forming bacteria, Bacillus spp. exhibit a wide range of physiological abilities which includes adaptation to biodiesel-diesel contamination 46 and active biodiesel degradation 47 . Differently from biodiesel- and diesel-contaminated soils, Rubrobacter , a known Actinobacteria well adapted for semi-arid soils 48 , was highest in control samples.…”

“…The control contained MSM and sterilized diesel oil 1% but without bacteria. The MSM was incubated under shaking condition at 150 rpm for 20 days at 37 o C (Fosso-Kankeu, Marx, & Brink, 2017). The extraction was done on day 0 and every 5 consecutive days.The diesel oil was extracted using liquid-liquid extraction of n-hexane with the equivalent volume of the mixture 1:1 (Latha & Kalaivani, 2012).…”

“…As was reported by Soriano et al, in biodiesel and biodiesel blend 18 microbial genera (8 fungal and 10 bacterial) were identified by DNA sequencing, which have been associated with, among others, fuel microbial contamination and/or biodegradation, biofuel production or related enzymes' expression, biofilm formation and/or exopolysaccharide production [6]. Fosso-Kankeu et al studied two types of bacteria, which were exposed to different concentrations of diesel to increase their adaptation to the fossil fuel and were used for the degradation of dieselbiodiesel blends [7]. Owsianiak et al investigated the effect of surfactants on the microbial life of diesel/biodiesel blends [8].…”
