Biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbon waste using consortia of Bacillus sp

Author: Masika, Wendy S ; Moonsamy, Ghaneshree ; Mandree, Prisha ; Ramchuran, Santosh O ; Lalloo, Rajesh ; Kudanga, T Date: Dec 2020 Petroleum hydrocarbons are toxic to all forms of life; therefore, environmental pollution caused by petroleum is of great concern. Bio-based environmentally friendly strategies are preferred for the remediation of these contaminated sites. ... Read more
Bioelectricity generation by natural microflora of septic tank wastewater (STWW) and biodegradation of persistent petrogenic pollutants by basidiomycetes fungi: An integrated microbial fuel cell system

Author: Thulasinathan, B ; Jayabalan, T ; Sethupathi, M ; Kim, W ; Muniyasamy, Sudhakar ; Sengottuvelan, N ; Nainamohamed, S ; Ponnuchamy, K ; Alagarsamy, A Date: Jan 2021 The microbial fuel cell is a unique advantageous technology for the scientific community with the simultaneous generation of green energy along with bioelectroremediation of persistent hazardous materials. In this work, a novel approach of ... Read more
Bioremediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from industry contaminated soil using indigenous bacillus spp.

Author: Mandree, Prisha ; Masika, Wendy S ; Naicker, Justin ; Moonsamy, Ghaneshree ; Ramchuran, Santosh O ; Lalloo, Rajesh Date: Sep 2021 Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are reportedly toxic, ubiquitous and organic compounds that can persist in the environment and are released largely due to the incomplete combustion of fossil fuel. There is a range of microorganisms ... Read more
Electrospun alginate nanofibers toward various applications: A review

Author: Mokhena, Teboho C ; Mochane, MJ ; Mtibe, Asanda ; Mathew, Maya J ; Sadiku, ER ; Sefadi, JS Date: Feb 2020 Alginate has been a material of choice for a spectrum of applications, ranging from metal adsorption to wound dressing. Electrospinning has added a new dimension to polymeric materials, including alginate, which can be processed to their ... Read more
The potential of acidophilic macroalgae as part of passive bioremediation technology for acid mine drainage in constructed wetlands

Author: Cheng, Po-Hsun ; Oberholster, Paul J ; Botha, A-M Date: Oct 2012 The properties of acid mine drainage (AMD) render water resources less habitable to various biota, hence waters that receive AMD are often characterised by very low biodiversity and the flora and fauna become dominated by highly tolerant ...

Use of Bacillus spp in the bioremediation of fats, oils and greases (FOG’s), and other waste substrates in food processing effluents

Author: Roets-Dlamini, Yrielle ; Moonsamy, Ghaneshre ; Lalloo, Rajesh ; Ramchuran, Santosh O Date: Jul 2022 Food production industries generate large amounts of untreated water-borne food wastes that accumulate and block drains and pipes, increasing life cycle operating costs. Food wastes contain high concentrations of protein, carbohydrates (sugars), ... Read more
Use of biological activities to monitor the removal of fuel contaminants - perspective for monitoring hydrocarbon contamination: A review

Author: Maila, MP ; Cloete, TE Date: Jan 2005 Soil biological activities are vital for the restoration of soil contaminated with hydrocarbons. Their role includes the biotransformation of petroleum compounds into harmless compounds. In this paper, the use of biological activities as ... Read more
