Abstract:
|
An Acinetobacter sp, isolated from latex centrifugation effluent, effectively coagulated skim rubber from skim latex.
After coagulation for 48 h without the addition of any nutrients, at an optimum dilution of 1:10(v/v) and with an
inoculum concentration of 6.4 mg dry cell /ml, the yield of the skim rubber was 8 % (w/v) and the COD of the residual
solution was only 0.4 g/l. chemical coagulation at the same dilution resulted in 7 % (w/v) yield of dry rubber content
and 2.2 g COD /l. |
