Abstract

The article shows the possibility of bacterial degradation of crystalline phenanthrene in its pure form. The results make it possible to create a technology for processing chemical industry waste in the form of “as is” without dilution with neutral substrates or clean soils. Bacteria Pseudomonas sp., Completely destroying crystals moistened with a solution of salts of Raymond’s medium, were isolated from a soil sample taken in Soho Square, London (UK). Similar destructors, but with less activity, were isolated from the soil of the industrial zone of Dzerzhinsk (Russia).

Highlights

  • Bacteria Pseudomonas sp., Completely destroying crystals moistened with a solution of salts of Raymond's medium, were isolated from a soil sample taken in Soho Square, London (UK)

  • The development of bioremediation technologies today has made it possible to relatively cheaply clean landscapes contaminated with oil products and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, but we always deal with dispersed contaminants, or are forced to dilute the waste with clean substrates

  • The use of composting contaminated soils with the application of fertilizers for cleaning soils contaminated with oil products, including benz [a] pyrene at low temperatures in northern Sakhalin, is described

Summary

Introduction

The development of bioremediation technologies today has made it possible to relatively cheaply clean landscapes contaminated with oil products and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, but we always deal with dispersed contaminants, or are forced to dilute the waste with clean substrates. The use of composting contaminated soils with the application of fertilizers for cleaning soils contaminated with oil products, including benz [a] pyrene at low temperatures in northern Sakhalin, is described. The use of compost from MSW for biodegradation of PAHs [3] does not solve the actual problem of destruction of concentrated waste, but only offers a substrate for their dilution. In this regard, it is necessary to search for new strains of destructors in order to search for strains highly destructive to pollutants - destructors
