Microbial reductive dechlorination of toxic chlorinated ethenes can lead to ethene formation, but can lead to the accumulation of carcinogenic vinyl chloride (VC) in acidic groundwater. This study explored the feasibility of cometabolic VC degradation by moderately acidophilic methanotrophs and found that the process can occur at pH at or below 5.5 without dependence on copper availability. Bioaugmentation with methanotroph isolates can enhance VC degradation, but further research is needed to explore species-specific differences in robust bioaugmentation.
Remediation of toxic chlorinated ethenes via microbial reductive dechlorination can lead to ethene formation; however, the process stalls in acidic groundwater, leading to the accumulation of carcinogenic vinyl chloride (VC). This study explored the feasibility of cometabolic VC degradation by moderately acidophilic methanotrophs. Two novel isolates, Methylomonas sp. strain JS1 and Methylocystis sp. strain MJC1, were obtained from distinct alpine peat bogs located in South Korea. Both isolates cometabolized VC with CH4 as the primary substrate under oxic conditions at pH at or below 5.5. VC cometabolism in axenic cultures occurred in the presence (10 mu M) or absence (<0.01 mu M) of copper, suggesting that VC removal had little dependence on copper availability, which regulates expression and activity of soluble and particulate methane monooxygenases in methanotrophs. The model neutrophilic methanotroph Methylosinus trichosporium strain OB3b also grew and cometabolized VC at pH 5.0 regardless of copper availability. Bioaugmentation of acidic peat soil slurries with methanotroph isolates demonstrated enhanced VC degradation and VC consumption below the maximum concentration level of 2 mu g L-1. Community profiling of the microcosms suggested species-specific differences, indicating that robust bioaugmentation with methanotroph cultures requires further research.
