CONSORTIUM OF STRAINS OF MICROORGANISMS-DESTRUCTORS: BACILLUS SPECIES, AEROMONAS SPECIES, ALCALIGENES EUTROPHUS, ALCALIGENES DENITRIFICANS USED TO PURIFY SOILS, GROUNDS, WATERS AGAINST PETROLEUM CONTAMINATION
biotechnology. SUBSTANCE: consortium is isolated out of soils chronically contaminated by petroleum products at coastal area of the southern Far East. These are natural associations of oil- oxidizing microorganisms developed in soil as a result of prolonged impact of petroleum products upon soil biota. Oxidizing activity of the mentioned consortium according to the final product of oxidation corresponds to 2091 mg CO2 during 30 d. Predominance of such a consortium lies in the opportunity to grow upon depleted nutritive medium and oxidize petroleum products at high velocity. EFFECT: higher efficiency of biological purification of petroleum-contaminated soils, grounds and waters at areas of bulk plants, oil fields, industrial plants and other objects.
