Acclimation and Characterization of a Pseudomonas Strain for Improved Phosphorus Removal

A Pseudomonas strain(named as P.PAO-1) with phosphorous removal function was isolated and characterized.A new method of two-stage cultivation was applied to the strain to induce the synthesis of intracellular polyhydroxylbutyrate(PHB) in the cells.In the first stage,bacterial cells were enriched und...

Summary:A Pseudomonas strain(named as P.PAO-1) with phosphorous removal function was isolated and characterized.A new method of two-stage cultivation was applied to the strain to induce the synthesis of intracellular polyhydroxylbutyrate(PHB) in the cells.In the first stage,bacterial cells were enriched under a high carbon source condition;in the second stage,the bacteria cells were cultivated under the nutrient-imbalanced conditions with the carbon source-regulated medium.As a result,the PHB content of strain P.PAO-1 reached 22.8% compared with the normal 7.41% in the non-acclimated strain.This change had led to the rising of P uptake from 1 to 25 mg·L~(-1).When added the strain P.PAO-1into the activated sludge(with the addition proportion of 1:1),the ratio of biological phosphorus removal increased by 14.9%under the normal alternating anaerobic/aerobic conditions with low-carbon consumption.The results demonstrated that the isolated pure culture strain P.PAO-1 belonged to the functional group of poly-P accumulating microorganism.When cultured by the two-stage cultivation method,the initial accumulation of PHB in the strain cells could be achieved and the phosphorous removal capacity of strain P.PAO-1 could be induced subsequently.When applied to the wastewater,strain P.PAO-1 performed phosphorus removal from the wastewater with or without the addition of activated sludge.
