Degradation properties of petroleum degrading bacteria immobilized on modified corn straw in marine environment

Abstract

In this study, in order to more effectively improve the biodegradation of oil in oil accident, the petroleum degrading Monomonas aeruginosa sp. was immobilized on the modified corn straw to analyze degradation properties, which was carbonized at different temperatures. The results indicated that after modified, the pores on the surface of corn straw increased significantly, the biomass can reach 18.25?×?10¹⁰ CFU/g and the degradation rate of diesel could reach 59.69% after 5?days. Therefore, the modification method can further provide technical support for the immobilization technology.
