چکیده

Biodesulfurization was monitored in a recombinant Pseudomonas putida CECT5279 strain. DszB desulfinase activity reached a sharp maximum at the early exponential phase, but it rapidly decreased at later growth phases. A model two-step resting-cell process combining sequentially P. putida cells from the late and early exponential growth phases was designed to significantly increase biodesulfurization.

Study of Desulfurization Rate in Rhodococcus FMF Native Bacterium

The Rhodococcus FMF (R. FMF) native bacterium was isolated from soil contaminated with oil in Tabrizrefinery. This bacterium carries three genes sox (dszA, B, C) on its genomic DNA. Preliminary studieshave proved that R. FMF strain possess desulfurization activity. In this work soxA and B genes wereamplified by PCR, after designing a pair of suitable primers. Analysis of PCR p...

Mineralization of the dibenzothiophene biodegradation products 3-hydroxy-2-formyl benzothiophene and dibenzothiophene sulfone.

Dibenzothiophene is degraded to 3-hydroxy-2-formyl benzothiophene by various bacteria, including a strain of Pseudomonas putida that also forms dibenzothiophene sulfone via an alternate pathway. By using these end products as substrates, mixed enrichment cultures that could degrade 3-hydroxy-2-formyl benzothiophene and dibenzothiophene sulfone with the formation of CO2 were established.

The Enhancement of Biodesulfurization Activity in a Novel Indigenous Engineered Pseudomonas putida

Background: The combustion of sulfur-rich fossil fuels leads to release of sulfur oxide pollution in the environment. In biodesulfurization process, an organism is able to remove sulfur from fossil fuels without decreasing the caloric value of those substrates. The main aim of this research was to design a recombinant microorganism to remove the highest amount of sulfur compounds in fossil fuel...

Mixtures of Pseudomonas putida CECT 5279 cells of different ages: Optimization as biodesulfurization catalyst

Sulfur content in fossil fuels is known to be the most important anthropogenic cause of sulfur oxide emissions to the atmosphere. In order to avoid health, environmental and technical problems caused by this compound, legislation imposes restrictive limitations to fuel sulfur content. Biodesulfurization (BDS) can become a complementary technology to hydrodesulfurization (HDS) to face this situa...

Study the effect of environmental factors and different carbon sources on dibenzothiophene desulfurization by Exophiala spinifera

It is necessary to reduce the amount of sulfur in fossil fuels due to direct impact of the quality of these fuels on the environment. In this research, a novel fungus strain of Exophiala spinifera, namely FM, was used to desulfurize dibenzothiophene (DBT) as a model cyclic sulfur compounds in oil and fossil fuels. HPLC analysis indicated that the fungus was capable of reducing 99% of DBT concen...
