Zinc-Containing Effluent Treatment Using Shewanella xiamenensis Biofilm Formed on Zeolite.

ABSTRACT: The sorption properties of Shewanella xiamenensis biofilm formed on zeolite (mineral-organic sorbent) as a sorbent have been investigated aiming to determine its suitability for complex zinc-containing effluent treatment. The optimum conditions for metal sorption from synthetic solutions were evaluated by changing the pH, zinc concentration, temperature, and time of sorption. The highest removal of metal ions was attained at pH range 3.0-6.0 within 60-150 min of sorbent-sorbate contact. The results obtained from the equilibrium studies were described using the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin models. Maximum sorption capacity of the sorbent calculated from the Langmuir model changed from 3.4 to 6.5 mg/g. High coefficient of determination values calculated for pseudo-second-order and Elovich models indicate the predominant role of chemisorption in metal removal. Gibbs energy and ∆H° values point at the spontaneous and endothermic character of the sorption. The effect of pH and biosorbent mass on Zn(II) sorption from industrial effluent with an initial Zn(II) concentration of 52.8 mg/L was tested. Maximum removal of zinc ions (85%) was achieved at pH 6.0 by applying a two-step treatment system.

Project description:Introductionbla(OXA-48) is a globally emerging carbapenemase-encoding gene. The progenitor of bla(OXA-48) appears to be a Shewanella species. The presence of the bla(OXA-48)-like gene was investigated for two Shewanella xiamenensis strains.MethodsStrain WCJ25 was recovered from post-surgical abdominal drainages, while S4 was the type strain of S. xiamenensis. Species identification for WCJ25 was established by sequencing the 16S rDNA and gyrB genes. PCR was used to screen the bla(OXA-48)-like genes and to obtain their complete sequences. A phylogenetic tree of the bla(OXA-48)-like genes was constructed. The genetic context of the bla(OXA-48)-like gene in strain WCJ25 was investigated by inverse PCR using self-ligated AseI- or RsaI-restricted WCJ25 DNA fragments as template, while that in strain S4 was determined by PCR mapping using that in WCJ25 as template.ResultsA new bla(OXA-48) variant, designated bla(OXA-48b), with four silent nucleotide differences from the bla(OXA-48) (designated bla(OXA-48a)) found in the Enterobacteriaceae was identified in strain S4. Strain WCJ25 had a new bla(OXA-48)-like variant, bla(OXA-199), with five nucleotide differences from bla(OXA-48)a and bla(OXA-48b). The OXA-199 protein has three amino acid substitutions (H37Y, V44A and D153G) compared with OXA-48. Both bla(OXA-48b) and bla(OXA-199) were found adjacent to genes encoding a peptidase (indicated as orf), a protein of unknown function (sprT), an endonuclease I (endA), and a ribosomal RNA methyl transferase (rsmE) upstream and to transcriptional regulator gene lysR and an acetyl-CoA carboxylase-encoding gene downstream. In addition, the insertion sequence ISShes2 was found inserted downstream of bla(OXA-199) but not of bla(OXA-48b). The 26 bp sequences upstream and 63 bp downstream of bla(OXA-48a), bla(OXA-48b) and bla(OXA-199) were identical.Conclusionsbla(OXA-48a), bla(OXA-48b) and bla(OXA-199) might have a common origin, suggesting that the bla(OXA-48a) gene found in the Enterobacteriaceae could have originated from the chromosome of S. xiamenensis.
