Optimization studies on production of a salt-tolerant protease from Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain BC1 and its application on tannery saline wastewater treatment

Abstract: Treatment and safe disposal of tannery saline wastewater, a primary effluent stream that is generated by soaking salt-laden hides and skin is one of the major problems faced by the leather manufacturing industries.Conventional treatment methods like solar evaporation ponds and land composting are not eco-friendly as they deteriorate the ground water quality. Though, this waste stream is comprised of high concentration of dissolved proteins the presence of high salinity (1-6 % NaCl by wt) makes it non-biodegrad… Show more

“…The ANFL was dispersed in water byusing Ultra sonicator at 23 KHz. The optimization studies were carried out with minimal media of volume 50 ml and culture broth, 2 ml at different incubation time (12-72 h), pH (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10), temperature (20-60°C), ANFL (0.5-5% w/v) and the salinity (0.5-5%) for the production of amylase [29][30][31]. Biomass in the reaction mixture was separated using refrigerated centrifuge followed by acetone precipitation.…”

“…Soaking process is commonly carried out in a soaking pit or paddle drum with agitation. The soak wastewater also known as soak liquor is characterised predominantly by dissolved bioorganic compounds and inorganic compounds, high concentration of suspended solids and halophilic and halotolerant microorganisms [7][8][9][10]. The soak liquor contains bioorganic compounds (majorly proteins, lipids, and glycosaminoglycans) besides chlorides in the range 40000-80000 mg/L.…”
