This study explored the impact of microenvironmental conditions on the biodegradative capacity and taxonomic composition of microbial communities in a landfill. Results showed that the composition of microbial communities was influenced by microenvironmental conditions, impacting their ability to degrade polyurethane waste and other xenobiotics. This research provides valuable insights into the potential use of microbial communities for the treatment of PU waste and other pollutants.
The microbial composition of polyurethane degrading communities has been barely addressed, and it is unknown if microenvironmental conditions modify its composition, affecting its biodegradative capacity. The polyurethanolytic activity and taxonomic composition of five microbial communities, selected by enrichment in the polyether-polyurethane-acrylic (PE-PU-A) coating PolyLack (R), from deteriorated PU foams collected at different microenvironments in a municipal landfill (El Bordo Poniente, BP) were explored. All BP communities grew similarly in PolyLack (R) as the sole carbon source, although BP1, BP4, and BP5 showed better performance than BP2 and BP7. FTIR spectroscopy showed that ester, urethane, ether, aromatic and aliphatic groups, and the acrylate component were targets of the biodegradative activity. Extracellular esterase activity was higher at 5 days of cultivation and decreased at 21 days, while urease activity showed the opposite. Microbial composition analysis, assessed by 16S rDNA V3 region PCR-DGGE, revealed a preponderance of Rhizobiales and Micrococcales. The reported PU-degrading genera Paracoccus, Acinetobacter, and Pseudomonas were identified. In contrast, Advenella, Bordetella, Microbacterium, Castellaniella, and Populibacterium, some of them xenobiotics degraders, can be considered potentially PU-degrading genera. Correspondence analysis identified independent groups for all communities, except the BP4 and BP5. Although partial taxonomic redundancy was detected, unique OTUs were identified, e.g., three members of the Weeksellaceae family were present only in the BP4/BP5 group. These results suggest that the microenvironmental conditions where the landfill microbial communities were collected shaped their taxonomical composition, impacting their PE-PU biodegradative capacities. These BP communities represent valuable biological material for the treatment of PU waste and other xenobiotics.
