Abstract

AbstractInvestigating the microbial community structure and composition of toxic industrial wastes contaminated with nitrocellulose and various by-products is crucial for understanding the fate of these pollutants in the environment and for the development and application of efiective bioremediation processes. In this study, we investigated the chemical properties and toxic potential of wastewater generated during nitrocellulose production. The analyzed wastewater from settling pond contained nitrocellulose powder particles as well as increased ammonium (570–760 mg/L), sulfate (1625– 2045 mg/L) and sulfite (864–1014 mg/L) concentrations. The toxicity test results demonstrated that the wastewater samples present acute toxicity for
