Solvent-free dispersants for crude oil spills were formulated based on the hydrophilic-lipophilic deviation (HLD) concept and using lipopeptides from Bacillus sp. GY19. The lipopeptides were recovered and concentrated from cell-free broth by foam fractionation and freeze-drying. They had good surface activity under varying temperatures, pH and NaC1 levels. Moreover, the lipopeptides had low toxicity to copepods (LC50 1174mg/L) and whiteleg shrimp (LC50 1050 mg/L). The characteristic curvature (Cc) of the lipopeptides showed that they were more hydrophobic (Cc 4.93) than sodium dihexyl sulfosuccinate (SDHS, Cc -0.92). The HLD equation was used to calculate the lipopeptide and the SDHS fractions in the dispersant formulations according to the equivalent alkane carbon number (EACN) of hydrocarbons and seawater salinity. The molar fraction of lipopeptides increased with increasing EACN. The lipopeptide-SDHS mixtures formed microemulsion Type III with specific hydrocarbons and crude oils. Oil displacement and baffled flask tests showed that the formulations reduced the interfacial tension and solubilized crude oil in the water column at higher efficiency than commercial dispersants or lipopeptides alone. In summary, the effectiveness of the lipopeptide-based dispersant corresponded to the optimal HLD. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
