The sonochemical degradation of 17β-estradiol (E2) and 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) in water and wastewater was investigated at ultrasonic frequency of 850 kHz. The effects of pH, initial concentrations, temperature, power and dissolved organic carbon were examined. The results obtained indicated that the rate of ultrasonic degradation of E2 and EE2 in water and wastewater is influenced by the pH, power, air sparging and the dissolved organic content of the aqueous solutions. Mass degradation rates of E2 and EE2 per kW ranged from 1.7 to 4.0 mg kW?1 at varying process parameters. The degradation process followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model with rate constant of 1.71 × 10?2 min?1 at 25 °C. The value for activation energy (E a = 15.21 kJ mol?1) obtained from Arrhenius-type plot, indicated that the ultrasonic degradation of steroid hormones is thermodynamically feasible, and does not progress only on radical reactions but other intermediate reaction processes. In wastewater, the higher dissolved organic carbon significantly reduced the effectiveness of degradation of the E2 and EE2 showing that ultrasound treatment will be more effective as a tertiary treatment option in wastewater applications.  相似文献

Previous studies showed that 85 % of total organic matter (TOM) in digested sewage sludge (biosolids) used as a sealing layer material over sulfide tailings at the Kristineberg Mine, northern Sweden, had been degraded 8 years after application, resulting in a TOM reduction from 78 to 14 %. To achieve a better understanding of the field observations, laboratory studies were performed to evaluate biodegradation rates of the TOM under anaerobic conditions. Results reveal that the original biosolid consisted of ca. 60 % TOM (48.0 % lignin and 11.8 % carbohydrates) that had not been fully degraded. The incubation experiments proved that 27.8 % TOM in the biosolid was further degraded anaerobically at 20–22 °C during the 230 days’ incubation period, and that a plateau to the biodegradation rate was approached. Based on model results, the degradation constant was found to be 0.0125 (day?1). The calculated theoretical gas formation potential was ca. 50 % higher than the modeled results based on the average degradation rate. Cumulated H2S equated to 0.65 μmoL g?1 of biosolid at 230 days. However, the large sulfurous compounds reservoir (1.76 g SO4 2? kg?1 biosolid) together with anaerobic conditions can generate high concentrations of this gas over a long-term perspective. Due to the rate of biodegradability identified via anaerobic processes, the function of the biosolid to serve as an effective barrier to inhibit oxygen migration to underlying tailings, may decrease over time. However, a lack of readily degradable organic fractions in the biosolid and a large fraction of organic matter that was recalcitrant to degradation suggest a longer degradation duration, which would prolong the biosolid material’s function and integrity.  相似文献

Syntans are synthetically prepared tanning agents from phenols that play an important role in leather making by enhancing the filling, grain characteristics and dyeing property. A considerable amount of syntan emanated in waste water contributes high pollution load with other heterocyclic aromatic compounds and causes serious environmental impact resulting in high oxygen demand. In order to overcome this, suitable biodegradation techniques have been developed using laccase from Penicillium chrysogenum. The influence of different environmental parameters on the biodegradation has also been studied which reveals that the maximum syntan degradation was obtained at pH 5.0, temperature at 32 °C for the duration of 48 h. Maximum biodegradation was found to be 96 and 94% for samples containing phenolic and melamine syntan. Ultraviolet spectra showed the peaks at around 280 nm for the presence of phenolic (DI) syntan and at 220 nm for melamine syntan which were disappeared later in the experimental sample indicating complete degradation of syntans. Fourier spectral analysis indicated that the peaks at the region between 1443–1574 and 1176 cm?1 correspond to C=C stretching and C–H bending for aromatic region which were later disappeared in the experimental sample. Ultrapressure liquid chromatography elution profiles of syntans showed relatively shorter retention time indicating formation of oxidized products. Syntans, namely DI and FB6, showed reduction in chemical oxygen demand up to 87.71 ± 4 and 83.38 ± 5%, respectively, while total organic carbon reduction was achieved up to 82.37 and 80.72%, respectively. Toxicity studies revealed that seeds were well germinated using the treated (biodegradation) samples by crude laccase .  相似文献

Bisphenol-A is one of the highest volumes of chemicals produced worldwide and released into the atmosphere each year. Recent extensive literature has raised concerns about its possible endocrine-disrupting effect in animals and humans. A bacterium having high tolerance of bisphenol-A (1000 mg L?1) was isolated from agriculture soil of Coimbatore District, Tamil Nadu, India, and identified as Virgibacillus sp. KU4 by 16S ribosomal RNA sequence analysis. Bisphenol-A removal efficiency of this strain was measured as greater than 92% at seventh day of incubation in a basal mineral medium supplemented with 1000 mg L?1 at seventh day. Gas chromatography analysis showed that 1000 mg L?1 BPA in distilled water was degraded by the Virgibacillus sp. KU4 in an efficient way. A 70 ± 3% bisphenol-A degradation was observed in the suspended cell pellet-mediated degradation study, where distilled water supplemented with 1000 mg L?1 bisphenol-A was sole carbon and energy source for bacterial growth. Further, Virgibacillus sp. KU4 is expected to be a candidate as a biological cleaner of BPA in the environment.  相似文献

Biological treatment of industrial wastewater containing heavy metal and organic pollutant has attracted extensive attention. In this study, Cr(VI) reduction coupled with phenol degradation was investigated by the sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) sludge with addition of zero-valent iron (ZVI). The results showed that the SRB wet sludge (SWS) had a good bioactivity in the reduction of Cr(VI) only when the initial concentration of Cr(VI) was below 60 mg L?1. The addition of ZVI significantly enhanced the bioactivity and reusability of SWS, and the reduction percentage of Cr(VI) achieved 98% after SWS was successively used for seven cycles. SWS coupled with ZVI showed a high activity in phenol degradation, with more than 94% phenol being degraded in each cycle. However, in the simultaneous removal of Cr(VI) and phenol, phenol degradation was inhibited due to the toxicity of Cr(VI) to phenol degrading microbes in SWS. On the other hand, reduction of sulfate and Cr(VI) was not affected by the presence of phenol, with more than 95% of sulfate and Cr(VI) being removed at the end of the 5th cycle. This study enriches our understanding on the applications of the SRB sludge in the removal of organic and inorganic contaminants in wastewater.  相似文献

The emergence of antibiotics residues in pharmaceutical industrial wastewater has been a significant environment problem. However, current methods of treating antibiotic-polluted wastewater are inefficient, of high cost and time-consuming. In this study, highly effective enzymatic Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were developed, which is extremely simple and can degrade antibiotics in a fast manner at a low cost. β-Lactamase, a representative enzyme for β-lactam antibiotic degradation, was covalently immobilized on the surface of magnetic nanoparticles modified with amino groups by a simple cross-linking process. The immobilized β-lactamase displayed a wider pH and temperature range for penicillin G degradation than the free enzyme. Meanwhile, the thermostability and storage stability of the immobilized β-lactamase were improved. Fifty milligrams magnetic nanoparticles immobilized with β-lactamase can thoroughly degrade 100 mL penicillin G (5–50 mg L?1) within 5 min. Even if the β-lactamase immobilized on the nanoparticles was reused 35 times in the 5 mg L?1 penicillin G solution, it still kept more than 95% degradation efficiency. These suggest that magnetic nanoparticles immobilized with β-lactamase have a sufficient capacity for degrading antibiotics in wastewater and will serve as a practical and economical solution to antibiotic pollution in pharmaceutical industrial wastewater treatment.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to propose a method for efficient degradation of tetracycline as a water contaminant. UV-C rays, ozonation, and iron chelates were used for removal of tetracycline from water. Aqueous solution of tetracycline (5 × 10?5 M) was exposed to UV-C rays (in two doses—6 and 12 W), ozonation (at 6–12 mg ozone), or iron chelates: iron(III) sodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, iron(III) trisglycinate, and iron(III) citrate. For each of iron compounds, three doses were studied: 2.5 × 10?5 M, 5 × 10?5 M, 10 × 10?5 M. The experiments have shown that aqueous solution of tetracycline (5 × 10?5 M) is immediately degraded as a result of ozonation with 12 mg ozone. Absorbance of tetracycline decreased from A = 0.78 to A = 0.35 after 20-min ozone treatment of sample. The fluorescence spectra revealed the presence of two ozone-induced TC degradation products with fluorescence maxima at 523 and 531 nm appearing immediately after the ozonation treatment. On the other hand, iron(III) sodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate and iron(III) trisglycinate gave rise to a single TC degradation product with a fluorescence maximum at 531 nm, observed after 10 days of the experiment. On application of iron(III) trisglycinate, at any studied concentration, tetracycline becomes degraded faster—in 4 days. Iron(III) citrate degraded 90 % of tetracycline, when used at the level 10 × 10?5 M. The biggest changes in tetracycline concentration were obtained as a result of ozonation and iron(III) citrate treatments.  相似文献

Irrigation by treated wastewater (TWW) can pollute the soil by different organic and inorganic compounds. The pollution level can depend on the irrigation period, soil nature, and wastewater characteristics. Since 1989, the Zaouit Sousse area (central Tunisian) has been irrigated by treated wastewater. The irrigation period and the mineralogy of soil composition change from one locality to another in Zaouit Sousse area. In this work, we are interested in organic compounds, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and heavy metals (HMs) evolution. One control soil (S1) and four irrigated areas soil (S2, S3, S4, and S5) were chosen. The soil samples differ by the irrigation period and soil characteristics. Total PAHs content in control soil was 66.2 ng?g?1 and in irrigated areas were between 46.23 and 129.51 ng?g?1. The PAHs content in irrigated soil, except S5 which has been irrigated with wastewater for 20 years and contains the highest clay fraction percent, decreased with the irrigation period (from 0 to 20 years). The microbial degradation may decrease the PAHs concentrations in the soil thanks to bacterium brought by TWW and the important soil permeability. Concentration of heavy metals ranged from 24 to 1,320 μg?L?1. The HMs (Cu, Cr, Zn, Fe, Ni, Pb, and Cd) contents decreased with the irrigation period (from 10 to 20 years). So, following the PAHs aerobic bio-degradation, this organic compound discharges their absorbed heavy metals which leached to deeper levels. The Cr, Cu, Al, Zn, and Cd mobility depend on the clay yield too. However, the PAHs and Pb mobility are also related to humic substance quantities. Cr and Cu have affinities both to clay and humic substance quantities.  相似文献

During dyeing process, industries consume large quantity of water and subsequently produce large volume of wastewater. This wastewater is rich in color and contains different dyes. Orange II is one of them. In this article, metal-impregnated TiO2 P-25 catalyst was used to enhance the photocatalytic degradation of Orange II dye. Photodegradation percentage was followed spectrophotometrically by the measurements of absorbance at λ max = 483 nm. The effect of copper-impregnated TiO2 P-25 photocatalyst for the degradation of Orange II has been investigated in terms of percentage removal of color, chemical oxygen demand (COD) and total organic carbon (TOC). As such 98 % color removal efficiency, 97 % percentage removal of COD and 89 % percentage removal of TOC was achieved with TiO2 P-25/Cu catalysts under typical conditions. Copper-impregnated TiO2 P-25 photocatalyst showed comparatively higher activity than UV/H2O2 homogeneous photodegradation. The relative electrical energy consumption for photocatalytic degradation was considerably lower with TiO2 P-25/Cu photocatalyst than that with homogeneous photodegradation. Transmission electron microscopic analysis was used for catalyst characterization.  相似文献

Phenol biodegradation in an aerobic batch reactor was investigated using mixed two co-aggregating strains (Flavobacterium sp. and Acetobacter sp.). Response surface methodology by the Box–Behnken model was used to evaluate the optimal cell growth and phenol degradation conditions. The optimum temperature, pH value and inoculum size were found to be 33 °C, 6.06 and 13 %, respectively. In the conditions, phenol degradation rate and biomass were predicted to be 96.97 % and 410.78 mg/L within the range examined, respectively. Less toxic acetaldehyde, ethanol and acetic ether were identified as main intermediate products from the degraded samples using GC–MS. Substrate inhibition was calculated from experimental biomass growth and phenol degradation parameters using the Haldane equation. Kinetic parameters derived from nonlinear regression with correlation factors (R 2) were 0.9682 for phenol degradation and 0.9594 for biomass growth, respectively. The phenol concentration to avoid substrate inhibition was 278.17 mg/L.  相似文献

This paper reports an experimental degradation study of nineteen multi-class pharmaceutical products present in the influent wastewater arriving at the Daugavgriva wastewater treatment plant. Collected wastewater samples were filtered and irradiated by electron beam and gamma radiation both generated from a 5 MeV linear particle accelerator. The samples were exposed to ten absorbed doses (0.5–25 kGy) produced at high dose rates (600 and 1200 kGy h?1 for accelerated electrons, as well as 22.5 and 37.5 kGy h?1 for gamma radiation). The analysis by a sensitive liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry method indicated that the initial concentrations of pharmaceutical residues were effectively reduced by up to 90–100% in eighty per cent of the cases when samples were exposed to 0.5–5 kGy of electron beam or gamma radiation treatment. Higher doses (>5 kGy) were needed to decompose macrolide antibiotics. The use of electron beam radiation showed some advantages due to the reduced exposure time, thus enabling a more energy efficient treatment resulting in the degradation of pharmaceutical residues comparable to that achieved by gamma irradiation. Microbiological studies indicated the pronounced degradation effect on bacterial contamination of wastewater, which was successfully eliminated upon increasing the radiation, dose up to 7–12 kGy.  相似文献

In many anoxic environments propionate is, after acetate, the second most important fermentation product, being degraded further to finally result in CH4 production. In principle, isotope discrimination can be used to assess the path of organic matter degradation to acetate, CO2 and CH4. However, nothing is known about the isotope fractionation in primary and secondary fermentation steps involving propionate, although it is an important precursor of acetate. We therefore studied the degradation of propionate with a syntrophic coculture of Syntrophobacter fumaroxidans and Methanobacterium formicicum. The isotope enrichment factor for propionate degradation to acetate, CO2 and CH4 was almost negligible (εprop 0.9‰). The fermentative production of propionate was studied in cultures with Opitutus terrae growing on pectin, xylan and starch. These polysaccharides were fermented to acetate, succinate, propionate, H2 and CO2. While the δ13C value of the initially produced propionate was similar to that of the organic substrates (ca. −28 to −25‰), the δ13C value of the other fermentation products was higher. The δ13C values of all products generally decreased during the course of fermentation. Finally, a small depletion in 13C (ca. 6‰) with respect to the organic substrate was observed for propionate, while the other fermentation products where slightly enriched. Overall, stable carbon isotope discrimination was small during both fermentative production and consumption of propionate in the anaerobic microbial cultures, so that propionate turnover probably only marginally affects isotope fractionation during anaerobic degradation of organic matter.  相似文献

An exploratory study was carried out at 22 sampling stations along the Langat River, Selangor in order to investigate on the vitality of cation exchange capacity (CEC) in sediment (0–5 cm). Parameters such as pH, Eh, salinity, and electrical conductivity (EC) were determined. The CEC in sediment has been calculated by the determination of Ca2+, Na+, Mg2+, and K+ using the flame atomic absorption spectrophotometer, while the organic matter content in sediment was ascertained using the loss on ignition method. The characteristic of the sediment shows that pH (3.09–7.46), salinity (0.02–10.71 ppt), EC (3.39–517 μS/cm) and Eh (?16.20–253.10 mV) were substantially high in variation. This study also revealed that exchangeable Ca2+ and Mg2+ were controlled by organic matter contents, while exchangeable Na+ and K+ were influenced by salinity. Salinity was observed to play a major part in controlling all the exchangeable cations, as it gives strong significant correlations with Na+, K+, Mg2+, CEC, and organic matter at p?<?0.01. The presence of seawater, clay mineralogy, and organic matter proves that it does play an important role in determining the CEC and soon relates to the pollution magnitude in the sediment.  相似文献

The removal of colour and organic compounds from vinasses derived from the wine distillery industry was studied using boron-doped diamond-based electrodes and dimensionally stable anodes. The maximum reduction of organic compounds and colour was attained with the use of boron-doped diamond-based electrode after 10 h of operation at a current density of 6.6 mA cm?2. The current efficiency obtained was about 90% with a specific energy consumption (measured in terms of removal of chemical oxygen demand) of 17 kWh kg?1 COD removed. The dimensionally stable anodes were capable of removing 6–47% of the organic material and reached 60% decolourisation but with a lower current efficiency (between 85 and 10%) and much higher specific energy consumption values. The anaerobic digestion of vinasse after 1 h of treatment using boron-doped diamond-based electrode showed an effective mineralisation of the organic matter contained in the sample leading to an increase in methane production during anaerobic digestion.  相似文献

The current work deals with efficient removal of acetaminophen (AC) from hospital wastewater using electro-Fenton (EF) process. The degradation yield of 99.5% was obtained under optimal experimental conditions, namely 5.75 mg L?1 initial AC concentration, 2.75 pH solution, 3-cm inter-electrode distance, 100 mg L?1 KCl electrolyte, 122.5 µL L?1 H2O2, 8 mA cm?2 current density at equilibrium time of 8 min. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) suggested that the effect of mentioned operating parameters was statistically significant on the AC removal. The low probability amount of P value (P < 0.0001), the Fisher’s F-value of 65.91, and correlation coefficient of the model (R2 = 0.9545) revealed a satisfactory correlation between the experimental and the predicted values of AC removal. The predicted removal efficiency of 99.4% was in satisfactory agreement with the obtained experimental removal efficiency of 98.7%. The AC degradation during the EF followed a first-order kinetic model with rate constants (Kapp) of 0.6718 min?1. Using the ordinary radical scavengers revealed that main mechanism of AC degradation controlled by the hydroxyl free radicals produced throughout the EF process. The excess amount of iron (II) scavenged the active radicals and diminished the concentration of ·OH available to react with AC. The optimum molar ratio of H2O2 to Fe2+ was found to be 2.5. The developed EF process as a promising technique applied for treatment of real samples.  相似文献

Nonlinear kinetic analysis of phenol adsorption onto peat soil   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Phenolic compounds are considered as a serious organic pollutant containing in many industrial effluents particularly vulnerable when the plant discharge is disposed on land. In the present study, the phenol removal potential of peat soil as adsorption media was investigated as the adsorption process are gaining popular for polishing treatment of toxic materials in industrial wastewater. Batch experiments were performed in the laboratory to determine the adsorption isotherms of initial concentrations for 5, 8, 10, 15, and 20 mg/L and predetermined quantity of peat soil with size ranges between 425 and 200 μm poured into different containers. The effects of various parameters like initial phenol concentration, adsorbent quantity, pH, and contact time were also investigated. From experimental results, it was found that 42 % of phenol removal took place with optimized initial phenol concentration of 10 mg/L, adsorbent dose of 200 g/L, solution pH 6.0 for the equilibrium contact time of 6 h. The result exhibits that pseudo-first-order (R 2 = 0.99) and Langmuir isotherm models are fitted reasonably (R 2 = 0.91). Adams–Bohart, Thomas, Yoon–Nelson, and Wolborska models were also investigated to the column experimental data of different bed heights to predict the breakthrough curves and to determine the kinetic coefficient of the models using nonlinear regression analysis. It was found that the Thomas model is the best fitted model to predict the experimental breakthrough curves with the highest coefficient of determination, R 2 = 0.99 and lowest root mean square error and mean absolute performance error values.  相似文献

The present study deals with the capability of pulp industry wastewater to produce bioelectricity with isolation and screening of native electrogenic bacteria from wastewater. In the screening process, three bacterial isolates were obtained; they were studied on the basis of morphology and biochemical characteristics. The maximum bioelectricity producing bacteria was identified by sequencing method and was identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens, and it is a novel bacteria reported in bioelectricity production from pulp industry wastewater. Further, the work focuses on optimization of various parameters, i.e., inoculum size, pH, temperature, mediators and its concentration. It was observed that with pulp industry wastewater, inoculum size of 1.5% gave the maximum voltage and current of 1.244 ± 0.003d V and 5.946 ± 0.005d mA, respectively. A pH of 7.0 gave maximum voltage and current of 0.956 ± 0.009e V and 2.692 ± 0.016e mA. At 35 °C temperature, maximum production of voltage and current of 1.045 ± 0.003d V and 2.167 ± 0.037d mA were recorded. Among the various mediators, humic acid was found to be most effective as it produced a voltage of 1.054 ± 0.004f V and current of 1.070 ± 0.004d mA. Maximum voltage of 1.291 ± 0.021f V and current of 1.896 ± 0.006f mA were recorded with 200 μM of humic acid. Physicochemical analysis of the effluent was conducted before and after experimental run, and the values suggested that the microbial fuel cell technology is an efficient method for biological treatment of wastewater.  相似文献

Low molecular weight organic acids (LMWOA) are produced in soil by various biological and chemical processes and can exhibit substantial metal complexing and dissolution capacity. The reactivity of these compounds in the soil environment is dependent on their non-complexed concentration in the soil solution. Adsorption of LMWOA has been shown to reduce their concentration in the soil solution; however, little is known about the reduction of LMWOA concentration due to microbial degradation. To examine the extent of microbial degradation in reducing LMWOA concentration in the soil solution, three-biometer methods were used: a soil biometer flask, an in-situ field biometer and a soil column biometer. Four soil horizons were used with each method. To each soil sample, 2.0×10−6 moles of organic acid containing 3.7×104 Bq total activity was applied. The 14C-radiolabeled aliphatic and aromatic acids studied included oxalic, malonic, succinic, and phthalic acid. Evolved 14CO2 was trapped in 0.5 mol l−1 NaOH and measured using liquid scintillation counting. Labeled acids degraded rapidly within the first 5 days for the Ap1, Ap2, and BA horizons, with a generally slower rate of 14CO2 evolution being observed for the Bt1 horizon. The % degradation of labeled acid was substantially greater for the soil biometer flask method, compared to the field and soil column biometer methods. The average % degradation for the soil biometer flask was 67% for all soil horizons and organic acids, compared to 14% for the field biometer and 13% for the soil column biometer. Results indicate that substantial microbial degradation of organic acids can occur within a relatively short time period and the biometer method selected can influence the % acid degraded. Based on primary results, the soil column biometer method better approximated microbial degradation under field conditions, as evaluated using the field biometer.  相似文献

Indole is a highly recalcitrant aromatic heterocyclic organic compound consisting of a five-membered nitrogen-containing pyrrole ring fused to a six-membered benzene ring. This study presents the results of the electro-chemical mineralization of indole in an aqueous solution using platinum-coated titanium (Pt/Ti) electrode. A central composite design was used to investigate the effect of four parameters namely initial pH (pHo), current density (j), conductivity (k) and treatment time (t) at 5 levels. Multiple responses namely chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal (Y 1) and specific energy consumption (Y 2) were simultaneously maximized and minimized, respectively, by optimizing the parameters affecting the mineralization of indole by using the desirability function approach. At the operating conditions of pH 8.6, j = 161 A/m2, k = 6.7 mS/cm and t = 150 min, 83.8% COD removal with specific energy consumption of 36.3 kWh/kg of COD removed was observed. Ultra performance liquid chromatography, UV–visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry of the indole solution were performed at the optimum condition of the treatment so as to report a plausible mechanism of indole degradation. Field emission scanning electron microscopy analysis of electrodes before and after treatment was performed for determining the changes on anode surface during the treatment. Thermal analysis of the solid residue (scum) obtained was also performed for exploring its disposal prospects. Present study shows that electro-chemical oxidation can be used for mineralization of nitrogenous heterocyclic compounds such as indole.  相似文献

The biodegradation of purified radiolabelled membrane lipids from a methanogenic bacterium and a pseudomonad were investigated in mangrove, beach and high marsh marine sediments under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The effect of organic matter on the amount and rate of degradation was also examined by supplementing beach sediments with humic acids. In aerobic sediments, CO2 was the major product of lipid degradation while under anaerobic conditions both CO2 and CH4 were major end products and the overall rates were reduced (up to 40%) relative to aerobic conditions. Total bacterial numbers increased during all incubations with the largest increases occurring in anaerobic sediments supplemented with humic acids. No lipid degradation occurred in aerobic or anaerobic sediments treated with formaldehyde or autoclaving. In low organic beach sediments, the ester-linked phospholipid of the pseudomonad was degraded much more rapidly than the diphytanyl glycerol diether of the methanogen with 69% of the phospholipid degraded in 96 hours versus only 4% of the methanogen lipid. Lipid degradation in both aerobic and anaerobic sediments was highly correlated to organic matter content with increasing amounts of organic matter inhibiting degradation. Long incubations (75 days) of the diphytanyl glycerol ether resulted in 51% degraded to CO2 in low (0.5%) organic mangrove sediments while only 9% was mineralized in high (10.8%) organic marsh sediments. Physicochemical sorption of membrane lipids to the organic matrix is proposed as a mechanism which protects membrane lipids from microbial attack and degradation.  相似文献
