tailieunhanh - Bioremediation of sludge using Pseudomonas Aeruginosa

For the bioremediation of sludge, samples were collected from different places near Jalandhar city of the Punjab (India). In order to analyze the sludge, the physiochemical parameters like pH, Moisture and heavy metal are determined. The bacterial strain Pseudomonas aeruginosa was screened for the removal of heavy metal like LEAD and COPPER from the industrial sludge. The effect on pH and moisture was determined. Maximum lead removal was noted to be by Pseudomonas aeruginosa species from the sludge sample and copper removal was noted to be by P. aeruginosa species. The present study depicts that the bacterial species remove heavy metal from sludge and can be used for the industrial waste management and other environmental maintenance. | 2019 8 4 69-79 EXCELLENT PUBLISHERS International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN 2319-7706 Volume 8 Number 04 2019 Journal homepage http Original Research Article https Bioremediation of Sludge using Pseudomonas aeruginosa Rajveer Kaur1 Gurjot Kaur Mavi2 and Shweta Raghav3 1CT Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences Jalandhar India 2Department of Animal Genetics and Breeding 3Department of Veterinary Anatomy GADVASULudhiana India Corresponding author ABSTRACT Keywords Bioremediation Pseudomonas aeruginosa Sludge Article Info Accepted 04 March 2019 Available Online 10 April 2019 For the bioremediation of sludge samples were collected from different places near Jalandhar city of the Punjab India .

Introduction Bioremediation is the process of utilizing living organisms microorganisms to degrade pollutants and contaminants from the environment and transform them into less toxic form. Bioremediation is based on the ability of a microorganism to degrade the hydrocarbons into components that can be taken up by other micro-organisms as a nutrient source or can be safely returned to the environment. Degraded organic components are converted into water carbondioxide and other inorganic compounds. Not only microbes but plants too help in biodegradation
