  • Microbiological Study in Petrol-Spiked Soil
    molecules Article Microbiological Study in Petrol-Spiked Soil Agata Borowik , Jadwiga Wyszkowska * and Jan Kucharski Department of Soil Science and Microbiology, University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn, 10-727 Olsztyn, Poland; [email protected] (A.B.); [email protected] (J.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The pollution of arable lands and water with petroleum-derived products is still a valid problem, mainly due the extensive works aimed to improve their production technology to reduce fuel consumption and protect engines. An example of the upgraded fuels is the BP 98 unleaded petrol with Active technology. A pot experiment was carried out in which Eutric Cambisol soil was polluted with petrol to determine its effect on the microbiological and biochemical properties of this soil. Analyses were carried out to determine soil microbiome composition—with the incubation and metagenomic methods, the activity of seven enzymes, and cocksfoot effect on hydrocarbon degradation. The following indices were determined: colony development index (CD); ecophysiological diversity index (EP); index of cocksfoot effect on soil microorganisms and enzymes (IFG); index of petrol effect on soil microorganisms and enzymes (IFP); index of the resistance of microorganisms, enzymes, and cocksfoot to soil pollution with petrol (RS); Shannon–Weaver’s index of bacterial taxa diversity (H); and Shannon–Weaver’s index of hydrocarbon degradation (IDH). The soil pollution with petrol was found to increase population numbers of bacteria and fungi, and Protebacteria phylum abundance as well as to decrease the abundance of Actinobacteria and Acidobacteria phyla. The cultivation of cocksfoot on the petrol-polluted soil had an especially beneficial effect mainly on the Citation: Borowik, A.; Wyszkowska, bacteria belonging to the Ramlibacter, Pseudoxanthomonas, Mycoplana, and Sphingobium genera.

Editor: Julian Marchesi ABSTRACT In this paper, we describe the microbial composition and their predictive metabolic profile in the sea urchin Lytechinus variegatus gut ecosystem along with samples from its habitat by using NextGen amplicon sequencing and downstream bioinformatics analyses. The microbial communities of the gut tissue revealed a near-exclusive abundance of Campylobacteraceae, whereas the pharynx tissue consisted of Tenericutes, followed by Gamma-, Alpha- and Epsilonproteobacteria at approximately equal capacities.

These strains were gram-negative, peritrichously flagellated, branching, filament-forming bacteria. The cellular fatty acids consisted of large amounts of straight-chain unsaturated ClSz1acid, as well as straight-chain saturated C16:o acid and unsaturated ClGZ1acid. The major ubiquinone was ubiquinone Q-lo. The Mycoplana strains were divided into four groups, including one group containing Mycuplana dimurpha ATCC 4279T (= IF0 13291T = NCIB 9439T) (T = type strain) and another group containing Mycuplana bullata ATCC 427tlT (= IF0 13290T = NCIB 9440T), on the basis of DNA base composition, major hydroxy fatty acid composition, mucosity of colonies, acid production from sugars, and utilization of carbon compounds. This division into groups was supported by the results of DNA-DNA homology experiments. Two new species, Mycoplana rumusa and Mycoplana segnis, are proposed. The type strain of M. ramusa is strain TKO053 (= NCIB 9440), and the type strain of M. segnis is strain TKO059 (= IF0 13240 = ATCC 21756).

  • Ammonia Removal: Biofilm Technologies for Rural and Urban Municipal Wastewater Treatment
    Ammonia removal: biofilm technologies for rural and urban municipal wastewater treatment Xin Tian A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctorate in Philosophy degree in Environment Engineering Ottawa-Carleton Institute for Environmental Engineering Department of Civil Engineering Faculty of Engineering University of Ottawa © Xin Tian, Ottawa, Canada, 2020 I Abstract The new Canadian federal wastewater regulations, which restricts the release of ammonia from treated wastewaters, has resulted in upgrade initiatives at many water resource recovery facilities across the country to reduce the discharge of ammonia into our natural waters. The objective of this dissertation is therefore to investigate and optimize the performance of two attached growth technologies for rural and peri-urban/urban municipal ammonia removal. In particular, the first specific objective of this dissertation is to investigate the performance and microbial response of the BioCord technology as an upgrade system for the post-carbon removal nitrification of rural wastewaters. The second specific objective is to study the start-up of an attached growth anammox technology to enhance current knowledge pertaining to anammox biofilm attachment, growth and maturation. The results pertaining to the first specific objective of this research, a study of the design and optimization of the BioCord technology, demonstrates a recommended design rate for the post-carbon removal, nitrifying BioCord system of a surface area loading rate (SALR) of 1.6 + 2 + 2 NH4 -N/m ·d and up to 1.8 NH4 -N/m ·d with steady ammonia-nitrogen removal efficiencies greater than 90% and steady and low solids production rate up to 0.26 g TSS/d.
