ABSTRACT
Volatile organic compounds emitted from landfills posed adverse effect on health. In this study, gaseous benzene was biologically treated using an in-situ biofilter without air pump. Its performance was investigated and the removal efficiency of benzene reached over 90 %. The decrease in the average benzene concentration was consistent with first-order reaction kinetics. Mycolicibacterium dominated the bacterial consortium (41-57 %) throughout the degradation. Annotation of genes by metagenomic analysis helped to deduce the degradation pathways (benzene degradation, catechol ortho-cleavage and meta-cleavage) and to reveal the contribution of different species to the degradation process. In total, 21 kinds of key genes and 13 enzymes were involved in the three modules of benzene transformation. Mycolicibacter icosiumassiliensis and Sphingobium sp. SCG-1 carried multiple functional genes critically involved in benzene biodegradation. These findings provide technical and theoretical support for the in-situ bioremediation of benzene-contaminated soil and waste gas reduction in landfills.
