“…Moreover, three additional enzyme families are produced by fungi for bio-remediation: Esterases, glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) and cytochrome P450 monooxygenase [227]. Accounting for this enormous set of enzymes, extremophilic marine fungi are suitable for the bioremediation of polluted saline environments due to their tolerance to high-salt conditions, thus becoming an essential resource in bioremediation of marine PAH-polluted environments [228,229] Some marine fungal species found in the Mediterranean and Red Sea DHABs, belonging to Aspergillus, Penicillium, Candida and Rhodotorula genera, have been reported to degrade some hydrocarbon compounds [230,231]. In particular, Rhodotorula glutinis identified in the DHAB L'Atalante has been reported to actively reduce oil compounds in petroleum polluted soils [232].…”

Deep-sea hypersaline anoxic basins (DHABs) are one of the most hostile environments on Earth. Even though DHABs have hypersaline conditions, anoxia and high hydrostatic pressure, they host incredible microbial biodiversity. Among eukaryotes inhabiting these systems, recent studies demonstrated that fungi are a quantitatively relevant component. Here, fungi can benefit from the accumulation of large amounts of organic material. Marine fungi are also known to produce bioactive molecules. In particular, halophilic and halotolerant fungi are a reservoir of enzymes and secondary metabolites with valuable applications in industrial, pharmaceutical, and environmental biotechnology. Here we report that among the fungal taxa identified from the Mediterranean and Red Sea DHABs, halotolerant halophilic species belonging to the genera Aspergillus and Penicillium can be used or screened for enzymes and bioactive molecules. Fungi living in DHABs can extend our knowledge about the limits of life, and the discovery of new species and molecules from these environments can have high biotechnological potential.

“…Klebsiella pneumoniae strain VM18 had degraded 62.84% hydrocarbons. However in previous results, Klebsiella pneumoniae CR23 degrade 58% of engine oil and 59.7% of petroleum refinery effluent (Oaikhena et al 2016, Adeleye et al 2018. This might be due to petroleum composition of engine oil, diesel oil and petroleum effluent, environmental conditions or the metabolic activity of microbial strain (Ozyurek and Bilkay (2017) GC-MS analysis reveals that, strain VM18 degraded C -C fraction Klebsiella pneumoniae after 35 days of incubation.…”

The present investigation was conducted to isolate, characterize and identify one of the best bio degrader bacterial isolate and to measure its biodegradation capacity. strain VM18 was the isolated bacteria which showed the degradation efficacy of Klebsiella pneumoniae 62.84% after 35 day of incubation in Bushnell Hass medium. GC-MS analysis reveals that, strain VM18 degraded C -th Klebsiella pneumoniae 51C fraction from 2.54% to 1.49% and converted them into C -C after 21 days of incubation. This can be concluded that bacterial strains have 60 31 50 potential to degrade the petroleum hydrocarbons present in contaminated soil environment.

“…Nitrogen is required for the synthesis of cellular proteins and cell walls, whereas P is required in the formation of nucleic acids, cell membranes, and adenosine triphosphate. Thus, bioremediation of polluted soil requires a sufficient provision of the above-mentioned nutrients, which are in turn utilized by hydrocarbonoclastic micro-organisms for their vigorous development and metabolousoperation (Adeleye et al, 2018;Nkereuwem et al, 2020). Nutrient deficiency in petroleum hydrocarbon polluted soils inhibit bio-remediation; nevertheless, soil hydrocarbonoclastic microbes usually gain from nutrients addition leading to improved bioremediation of hydrocarbon impacted habitat (Beolchini et al, 2010;Kauppi et al, 2011).…”

Soil pollution caused by petroleum hydrocarbon and its derivatives has become a grave global issue. Physico-chemical techniques are often expensive. However, bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbon polluted soil is cost-effective. Therefore, the study was carried out to assess the biostimulatory influence of biochar on the degradation of petroleum hydrocarbon impacted soil in NNPC Depot, kano state. Soil samples were randomly collected from the polluted site to obtain a composite sample. About 400 g of the polluted soil was filled into pots and arranged in a 2x2 factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with three replications. Bone and wood char was at 2 levels (0 and 50 g/pot) each. Data were collected on the physicochemical properties (pH, TN, and Av. P) of the soil, Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH), and bacterial population. Data were analyzed using ANOVA at α0. 05. Results obtained from the study show that biochar application significantly (p<0.05) enhanced TPH degradation and bacterial population in the polluted soil. However, Bone char significantly(p<0.05) enhanced TPH degradation and bacterial population the most compared to wood char. Combined bone and wood char application resulted in significantly (p<0.05) lower residual TPH content in the polluted soil compared to using bone or wood char alone. Thus, bone and wood char should be used in the bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbon impacted soils.
