Abstract
The effects of indigenous Sb-resistant bacteria isolated from Sb-contaminated soil on behavior ofdissolved Sb(III) were experimentally investigated under aerobic condition. Two indigenous bacteria, PS2(Pseudomonas nitroreducens) and PS3 (Variovorax paradoxus) were isolated from the soil containing 2,584 mg/kg of Sb. These bacteria decreased the concentration of dissolved Sb(III) and transformed Sb(III) to white orthorhombic Sb2O3 nanomaterial when 1 mM organic material supplied. There was no change of Sb(III) concentration over time in the case of supply with 5 mM organic material. The precipitated nanostructure of Sb2O3 showed highly similar morphology and mineralogical characteristics with the ‘nanobelt bundles’ which were previously manufactured by complicated chemical processes, implying applicability to optoelectronic industries. The results indicated that microbial transformation of toxic Sb(III) to Sb2O3 nanooxide may decrease toxicity and mobility of Sb in natural settings and be applied for industrial synthesis of Sb2O3 nanostructure.
Sb로 오염된 토양에서 Sb에 내성을 가진 토착 박테리아들을 분리한 후 이들이 호기성 조건에서 용존Sb(III)의 거동에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 조사하였다. 2,584 mg/kg의 Sb로 오염된 토양에서 PS2(Pseudomonasnitroreducens)와 PS3(Variovorax paradoxus)의 토착 박테리아를 분리하였다. 이 박테리아들은 1 mM의 유기물을 첨가한 호기성의 1 mM Sb(III) 조건에서 흰색 사방형 Sb2O3 나노물질을 형성하며 용존 Sb(III)를 감소시켰다. 5 mM 유기물 조건에서는 Sb(III) 농도 변화가 전혀 관찰되지 않았다. 형성된 Sb2O3 나노구조는 화학적으로 복잡하게 합성한 ‘나노벨트 묶음’ 형태의 Sb2O3와 흡사한 형태 및 광물학적 특성을 보여 광전자 산업에 사용될 가능성을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 분리한 미생물이 독성 Sb(III)을 Sb2O3 나노산화물로 변화시킴으로써 자연 환경에서 Sb 독성 및 이동도를 저감하는 한편 Sb2O3 합성을 촉진하는 산업적 응용 가능성이 있음을 나타낸다.
