Microbial Community and in situ Bioremediation of Groundwater by Nitrate Removal in the Zone of a Radioactive Waste Surface Repository

Abstract: The goal of the present work was to investigate the physicochemical and radiochemical conditions and the composition of the microbial community in the groundwater of a suspended surface repository for radioactive waste (Russia) and to determine the possibility of in situ groundwater bioremediation by removal of nitrate ions. Groundwater in the repository area (10-m depth) had elevated concentrations of strontium, tritium, nitrate, sulfate, and bicarbonate ions. High-throughput sequencing of the V3–V4/V4 region… Show more

“…The use of whey may also be an economically feasible solution to attenuate NO3pollution, while providing waste recycling. To the authors' knowledge, although a few previous studies focused on N removal by lactic acid derived products (Fernández-Nava et al, 2010;Safonov et al, 2018;Sage et al, 2006;Tang et al, 2018), an assessment of whey recycling to promote denitrification by means of isotopic tools has not yet been reported.…”

“…Soil phosphatase was determined with the disodium phenyl phosphate method ( Shao et al, 2020 ). Soil nitrite reductase was first leached with sodium nitrite-aluminum potassium alum, and then measured through a colorimetric method ( Safonov et al, 2018 ).…”

“…Several of these genera include nitrate-reducing or denitrifying members, many of which have been identified previously in 16S rRNA gene studies of nitrate- and uranium-contaminated groundwater from the Oak Ridge Reservation, including Hydrogenophaga , Acinetobacter , Mesorhizobium , and Sphingobium [ 47 ]. Nitrate and concomitant contaminants have been significantly linked to the presence of members of Oxalobacteraceae and Acinetobacter in nitrate and uranium contaminated groundwater in Russia [ 48 ] and Massilia with nitrate concentration in previous in-field bioreactor experiments [ 25 ].…”
