Sustainable production and co-immobilization of cold-active enzymes from Pseudomonas sp. for BTEX biodegradation

Saba Miri et al.

Summary: In this study, cold-active ToMO and C1,2D were produced using a newly isolated psychrophilic Pseudomonas S2TR-14 in a minimal salt medium supplemented with crustacean waste and different concentrations of used motor oil. Immobilized enzymes on micro/nano biochar-chitosan matrices showed high enzyme production and increased storage stability, leading to efficient degradation of BTEX in contaminated groundwater and soil. Integrated use of microbiochar and nanobiochar with chitosan for co-immobilization of ToMO and C1,2D can be a potential way to remove petroleum hydrocarbons with higher efficiency from contaminated sites.
