Abstract

The metabolic potential of microorganisms plays an important role in the biodegradation of petrochemical waste. The characteristics of the microbial community involved in industrial wastewater treatment have been reviewed in many studies. Within this review, a complete understanding was provided about the characteristics of microorganisms such as bacteria, yeast, micromycetes, and the role of enzymes in the biodegradation process. Data on the structure of the microbial community and the metabolic potential of individual strains are promising for improving the procedure for preliminary wastewater treatment with an increase in the spectrum of strains that can degrade more toxic and resistant xenobiotics. Deciphering the structure of the microbial community is the key to create a rationally and functionally stable purification system.
