PCBs and PAHs restrain the use of sludge as a renewable resource

Original language description

The aim of this research is to reduce the quantities of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the samples of non-hygienized sewage sludge via laboratory biodegradation. Pure bacterial cultures of Pseudomonas putida, Rhodococcus sp. and their mixture in 1:1 proportion have been used. The laboratory experiment lasted for 28 days and the acquired values were compared with Decree 294/2005 Coll. The obtained results imply that biodegradation of such contaminated samples ispracticable. Using the bacterial mixture, over 85% ? of PCBs were degraded, and applying Rhodococcus sp. as much as 95.86% of the original concentration of PAHs were removed.
