Biofiltration of gasoline and diesel aliphatic hydrocarbons
Original language description
The ability of a biofilm to switch between the mixtures of mostly aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons was investigated to assess biofiltration efficiency and potential substrate interactions. A switch from gasoline, which consisted of both aliphatic andaromatic hydrocarbons, to a mixture of volatile diesel n-alkanes resulted in a significant increase in biofiltration efficiency, despite the lack of readily biodegradable aromatic hydrocarbons in the diesel mixture. This improved biofilter performance was shown to be the result of the presence of larger size (C9-C12) linear alkanes in diesel, which turned out to be more degradable than their shorter-chain (C6-C8) homologues in gasoline. The evidence obtained from both biofiltration-based and independentmicrobiological tests indicated that the rate was limited by biochemical reactions, with the inhibition of shorter chain alkane biodegradation by their larger size homologues as corroborated by a significant substrate specialization alon
