Isolation and identification of naphthalene degrading bacteria and their degradation characteristics under rainwater environment in heavily polluted areas
This study is screened for naphthalene degrading strains from a heavily polluted area with high naphthalene concentration in the rainwater for the effective removal of naphthalene from rainwater. Recently, naphthalene biodegradation has been achieved in water. However, the influences of organics and inorganics in the rainwater on the biodegradation of naphthalene remains unclear. The naphthalene degrading strain Klebsiella sp. (WJ-1) was identified from sewage sludge. The effects of temperature, pH, inoculum size, and rotation speed on the degradation ability of WJ-1 were studied. The results showed that the naphthalene degradation rates of WJ-1 in rainwater were higher than those in aqueous solution at different experimental conditions. The optimal conditions were 30 °C, 10% inoculum size, pH 7.0, and a rotation speed of 150 rpm. The substances in rainwater might be important co-metabolites of naphthalene degradation. Based on intermediate metabolites detected by gas chromatography–mass spectrometer (GC-MS), the naphthalene biodegradation pathway was identified, as being similar to the phthalic acid pathway. These results suggest WJ-1 as a good candidate for the efficient bioremediation of naphthalene from rainwater in heavily polluted areas.
