Abstract

Optimal biodegradation kinetics models to the initial nonylphenol ethoxylates-30 concentration were investigated and had been fitted by the linear regression. Microorganisms capable of degrading nonylphenol ethoxylates-30 were isolated from sewage near Ulsan plant area by enrichment culture technique. Among them, the strain designated as EL-10K had the highest biodegradability and was identified as Pseudomonas from results of taxonomical studies. The optimal conditions for the biodegradation were 1.0 g/ι of nonylphenol ethoxylates-30 and 0.02 g/ι of ammonium nitrate at pH 7.0 and 3$0^{\circ}C$. The highest degradation rate of nonylphenol ethoxylates-30 was about 89% for 30 hours incubation on the optimal condition. Biodegradation data were fit by linear regression to equations for 3 kinetic models. The kinetics of biodegradation of nonylphenol ethoxylates was best described by first order model for 0.1 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ι nonylphenol ethoxylates-30 ; by Monod no growth model and Monod with growth model for 0.5 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mι and 1.0, 5.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mι, respectively.

Nonylphenol ethoxylates-30을 분해할 수 있는 Pseudomonas sp.를 분리, 동정하였다. Nonylphenol ethoxylates-30 의 최적분해조건은 탄소원으로 nonylphenol ethoxylates-30 1.0 g/ι, 질소원으로 ammonium nitrate 0.02 g/ι, pH 7.5, 30였다. 최적분해 조건에서 nonylphenol ethoxylates-30은 배양 30시간 후 89%가 분해되었다. 최적분해조건에서 nonylphenol ethoxylates-30의 초기농도가 각각 100 ppm, 500 ppm, 1000 ppm, 5000 ppm일 때 시간에 따른 분해율을 수식으로 설명할 수 있는 가장 적합한 분해 kinetics는 각각 first order model, Monod no growth model, Monod with growth model로 나타났다.
