Overview of Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds (PAC)
The chemical group of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAC), including the better-known subgroup of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and the heterocyclic aromatic compounds (NSO-PAC, heterocycles), comprise several thousand individual compounds. It is hard to find a comprehensive overview in the literature of these PACs that includes a substantial amount of relevant properties. Here an atte...
متن کاملPotential of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacterial Isolates to Contribute to Soil Fertility
Restoration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon- (PAH-) polluted sites is presently a major challenge in agroforestry. Consequently, microorganisms with PAH-degradation ability and soil fertility improvement attributes are sought after in order to achieve sustainable remediation of polluted sites. This study isolated PAH-degrading bacteria from enriched cultures of spent automobile engine-oil po...
متن کاملIdentification of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Degrading Bacterial Strain and its Ability to Degrade Pyrene
Four bacterial isolates were previously isolated from soil polluted with petroleum oil from Cairo Refining Company, Qalyubia, Egypt. These isolates (MAM-26, 29, 62 and 68) and standard strain Enterobacter cloacae MAM-4 were grown on five concentrations of pyrene (Pyr.) as a sole carbon and energy source. The abilities of these isolates to degrade Pyr. have been investigated. The growth (O.D) an...
متن کاملBacterial community dynamics during start-up of a trickle-bed bioreactor degrading aromatic compounds.
This study was performed with a laboratory-scale fixed-bed bioreactor degrading a mixture of aromatic compounds (Solvesso100). The starter culture for the bioreactor was prepared in a fermentor with a wastewater sample of a care painting facility as the inoculum and Solvesso100 as the sole carbon source. The bacterial community dynamics in the fermentor and the bioreactor were examined by a con...
متن کاملBacterial Degradation of Aromatic Compounds
Aromatic compounds are among the most prevalent and persistent pollutants in the environment. Petroleum-contaminated soil and sediment commonly contain a mixture of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heterocyclic aromatics. Aromatics derived from industrial activities often have functional groups such as alkyls, halogens and nitro groups. Biodegradation is a major mechanism of removal ...
