Abstract:
|
A novel Acinetobacter sp. BTJR-IO isolated from highly acidic
(pH 2.5-4.5) rubber latex centrifugation effluent with high COD
(22000 rng/L) and BOD (5000 rng/L). This strain could effect 39.5% COD
reduction on free cell inoculation of effluent without incorporation
of additional nutrients after 8 days. CalciLnn alginate irrmobilized
cells showed 16.4% and 25% COD reduction after 6 hra, without
aeration and after 1 hr. with mild aeration under batch process
respectively. Whereas 44.0% COD reduction could be achieved after 6
hrs. on continuous treatment in a packed bed reactor with mild
aeration. Further, even after 3 cycles 37% COD reduction was recorded
with continuous treatment |
