Microremediation of tannery wastewater by siderophore producing marine bacteria

The present study evaluated the microremediation potential of nine siderophore producing marine bacteria for hazardous raw tannery wastewater from common effluent treatment plant (CETP). Most of the pollutants detected in the wastewater were diminished after the bioremediation process. Further, amon...

Description
Summary:The present study evaluated the microremediation potential of nine siderophore producing marine bacteria for hazardous raw tannery wastewater from common effluent treatment plant (CETP). Most of the pollutants detected in the wastewater were diminished after the bioremediation process. Further, among the three potent isolates selected for aerobic and anaerobic bioremediation study, Marinobacter hydrocarbonoclasticus demonstrated the highest bioremediation aerobically with a reduction in chromium (88%), sulphate (71%), phosphate (68%) and nitrate (57%). Notably, Nitratireductor kimnyeongensis could attack the effluent under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions as substantiated by statistically significant (p
