The chemical composition influence of oil products on the efficiency of carbon-oxidizing microorganisms cultivation
Journal Title: Problems of Environmental Biotechnology - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
An investigation was made of the ability to grow microorganisms in conditions of water pollution with oil products. The study of the destructive activity of carbon-oxidizing microorganisms Penicillium crysogenиm, Pseudomonas syringae, and Bacillus subtilis has shown that they are capable to grow in oil contamination conditions, namely synthetic motor oil of grade ZIC XQ 5W-30 and mineral motor oil of grade MD 15W-40. The most active destructor of oil products in this experiment is Bacillus subtilis microorganisms, whose biomass gain on mineral motor oil is 55,4%. A different sensitivity of oil destructor microorganisms to the chemical composition of oil products is set, which is determined by the natural characteristics of the strains.
