“…The developed consortium (C1) consisted of five members of varying functionalities of the above mentioned attributes and was effective in the reduction of both hydrocarbons (approximately by 69%) and heavy metals (mainly Cr and Ni) from aqueous solutions under laboratory conditions. Hydrocarbon degradation by mixed bacterial communities is a well‐studied and researched phenomenon and numerous reports are available on this aspect (Kumari et al, 2018; Phulpoto et al, 2021; Varjani, 2017). Several past studies have reiterated the use of indigenous bacterial community for pollution clean‐up processes resulting in hydrocarbon degradation as high as over 90% over several months under field conditions (Szulc et al, 2014; Wang et al, 2018).…”

Aim: This work aims to investigate the nature of waste being generated by automobile service stations (ASS) and to devise a microbial-based formulation for the treatment of ASS wastewater. Methods and Results:Analysis of soil and water samples from the vicinity of different ASS in and around the Pune city region (India) revealed the presence of significant amounts of many heavy metals including zinc (Zn) 13.8-175.44 mg kg −1 , nickel (Ni) 0.6-5.5 mg kg −1 and copper (Cu) 8.07-179.2 mg kg −1 as well as oil and grease (O&G).A consortium, consisting of selected members from the ASS soil bacterial isolates, was formulated. The selection of consortium members was based on their ability to degrade hydrocarbons, tolerate heavy metals, and produce biosurfactant and lipase.The developed microbial consortium was capable of reducing the concentration of Ni, manganese (Mn) and chromium (Cr) by 69.25%, 14.63% and 84.93%, respectively, and O&G by 71.8% in the aqueous medium under laboratory conditions. Conclusions:Wastewater and soil analysis confirmed the presence of a high amount of O&G and metals in and around ASS. The developed microbial consortium holds potential for the treatment of wastewater rich in O&G and heavy metals. Significance and Impact of the study:There is a dearth of scientific studies in India on the wastewater and polluted soils associated with ASS. This work reveals and confirms the hazardous nature of ASS and the need for the development and feasibility of microbial-based technology for the sustainable bioremediation of such sites.

“…The predominance of Firmicutes and Actinobacteria in the structure of microorganism communities in all the lakes is natural since the taxa included in their composition ensure the decomposition of a wide range of organic and inorganic compounds. This allows the community to perform its functions in low temperatures and the presence of ice cover (Butler et al, 2019;Manikkam et al, 2020;Phulpoto et al, 2021).…”

“…Thus, alpha and beta proteobacteria are considered to be some of the most important aquatic microorganisms on our planet. They often dominate oligotrophic water bodies and can be competitive when nutrient availability is low (Phulpoto et al, 2021;Tian et al, 2021). On the other hand, gamma-proteobacteria (and many potentially pathogenic microorganisms among them) usually require high concentrations of organic matter.…”

“…P. aeruginosa is found in biofilms in water pipes and, as a consequence of the current lifestyle, it reaches relatively high abundance in food and on many wet surfaces (Kang & Kirienko, 2018;Ramos et al, 2020). Despite its potential pathogenicity, P. aeruginosa has a very wide spectrum of enzymatic activity (Huang et al, 2018) and plays an important ecological role in water bodies: it reduces the number of nitrates in lake waters (Rajakumar et al, 2008), demonstrates a high efficiency in removal of crude oil (Huang et al, 2017;Tanzadeh et al, 2020), oils, petroleum products (Varjani et al, 2020;Phulpoto et al, 2021), and heavy metals (Kumari et al, 2019;Izrael-Živković et al, 2019). The presence of this bacterial phylum in water can promote the self-recovering of the polluted industrial water bodies.…”

“…Unlike Vibrio non cholera, V. parahaemolyticus can produce a thermostable exotoxin and is a proven causative agent of acute foodborne gastroenteritis, wound infections (associated with recreational bathing), and sepsis (Matsuda et al, 2020). Found only in Smolino Lake, O. anthropi is a versatile bacterial species capable of colonizing an exceptionally wide range of habitats (Babic et al, 2000;Zurek et al, 2000;Chang et al, 2007), occurs in soil and water, is resistant to heavy metals and petroleum-hydrocarbons (Abou-Shanab et al, 2007;Phulpoto et al, 2021), has low virulence, and rarely causes human infection (Vila et al, 2016;Aguilera-Arreola et al, 2018).…”

Variability of the structure of winter microbial communities in Chelyabinsk lakes

et al. 2021

Microorganisms form complex and dynamic communities that play a key role in the biogeochemical cycles of lakes. A high level of urbanization is currently a serious threat to bacterial communities and the ecosystem of freshwater bodies. To assess the contribution of anthropogenic load to variations in the structure of winter microbial communities in lakes, microorganisms of four water bodies of Chelyabinsk region were studied for the first time. We used cultural, chromatography-mass spectrometric, and modern methods of statistical data processing (particularly, multivariate exploratory analysis and canonical analysis of correspondences). The research showed that the composition of winter microbial communities in lakes Chebarkul’, Smolino, Pervoye, and Shershenevskoye Reservoir did not differ significantly between the main phyla of microorganisms. The dominant microorganisms were found to be of the Firmicutes phylum and Actinobacteria phylum. The structure of bacterial communities had special features depending on the characteristics of the water body and the sampling depths. Thus, in the lakes Smolino, Pervoye, and Shershenevskoye Reservoir, an important role was played by associations between microorganisms – indicators of fecal contamination: coliform bacteria and Enterococcus. On the contrary, in Chebarkul’ Lake, members of the genus Bacillus, which are natural bioremediators, formed stable winter associations. However, the differences between water bodies and sampling depths reflected 28.1% and 9.8% of the variability of the winter microbial communities, respectively. The largest contribution (about 60%) to the variability of the structure was made by intra-water processes, which determined the high heterogeneity of samples from different water areas. We assume that an important role in this variability was played by the high anthropogenic impact in a large industrial metropolis. In our opinion, this line of research is very promising for addressing key environmental issues.
