Biodegradation of Azo and Reactive Dyes with Pseudomonas strains

Pseudomonas 속의 균주를 이용한 Azo계와 Reactive계의 Dye의 생분해

This study describes biodegradation of dyes which are used in textile industries. Dyes released into the environment from industrial waste water are considered to be a serious pollution problem because of the wide spread into environment with a variety of colors. The microorganisms used in this experiment were Pseudomonas species, which had been screened from aeration tank of waste water treatment. It was found that optimum concentrations for culture media were 14g of glucose, 6g of peptone, 160 mg of Na2HPO4, 200mg of KCl, 140mg of MgSO4,.7H2O,1.0g of KH2PO4, 400mg of NaCl, 200mg of CaCl2 and dye 10ppm per litre of distilled water. The high efficiency of dye degradation was obtained at pH 7-8 and $30-35^{\circ}C$. Strains screened are excellent for removal of azo and reactive dyes, which are relatively stable and difficult to degrade. Dyes of 10ppm such as mono-azo (Lot No. 180), di-azo (Lot No. 138) and reactive red(Lot No. 2) were mostly decolorlzed within 2 days and di-azo (Lot No. 151) and reactive red(Lot No. 34, No. 00166) were decolorized within 5 days in the controlled fermenter. In the case of reactive dyes, oxygen supplies showed lower biodegradability compared to anaerobic culture.

난분해성인 색소를 대사분해할 수 있는 미생물을 분리하여, 색소분해의 최적조건을 조사하였다. 미생물은 폐수처리공장의 폭기조에서 채취한 폐수로부터 agar media에서 순수분리하였다. 이 균주들을 glu­c cose, peptone, $Na_2HPO_45, KCI, MgSO_4, KH_2PO_4, NaCI, CaCI_2$와 dye(azo계, reactive red계 ) lOppm 을 함유한 액체 배지에서 dye의 분해력이 강하였으 며, 이때의 최적 pH는 중성 또는 약알칼리성이고, 최적 온도는 $30^{\circ}C$ 전후이다. 이 조건에서 10ppm의 m mono-azo(Lot No. 180), di-azo(Lot No. 138), re­a active red(Lot No.2)는 약 2일에 거의 분해되었고, di-azo(Lot No. 151), reactive red(Lot No. 34, L Lot No. 00166)는 약 5일에 거의 분해되었고, 최적 배지조건하에서 산소의 영향은 D.O를 50%로 유지 시켰을 경우보다 혐기성 배양의 경우가 reactive d dye(Lot No.2)의 분해도가 훨씬 높았다.
