ABSTRACT
Enhanced bioremediation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) is a promising and effective strategy for eliminating the risks posed by PCBs. In the present study, the feasibility of utilizing an immobilization approach to enhance the PCBs degradation performance of a resuscitated strain Streptococcus sp. SPC0 was evaluated. The results indicated that a mixed matrix containing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and sodium alginate (SA) used as immobilized carriers provided a porous microstructure space for SPC0 colonization and proliferation. The enhanced removal of PCBs by immobilized SPC0 was attributed to simultaneous adsorption and biodegradation performances of PVA-SA-SPC0 beads. The relative equilibrium adsorption capacity of immobilized beads increased with elevated initial concentration, and the maximum theoretical value calculated was 1.64 mg/g. The adsorption process of PCBs by immobilized beads was well fitted to the quasi-second-order kinetic model, and most suitable for Langmuir isotherm model. Immobilized SPC0 enhanced PCB removal with 1.0-7.1 times higher than free cells. Especially, more effective removal of PCBs at higher concentrations could be achieved, in which 73.9 % of 20 mg/L PCBs was removed at 12 h by immobilized SPC0, whereas only 12.0 % by free cells. Moreover, the immobilized SPC0 with excellent stability and reusability retained almost 100 % of the original PCBs removal activity after reusing four times. These results revealed the application potential of immobilizing resuscitated strains for enhanced bioremediation of PCBs.
