A starch-based controlled-release targeted nutrient agent to stimulate the activity of volatile chlorinated hydrocarbon-degrading indigenous microflora present in groundwater

Abstract

Volatile chlorinated hydrocarbons (VCHs) contaminated groundwater has a low indigenous microorganism population, and lack of nutrient substrates involved in degradation reactions, resulting in a weak natural remediation ability of groundwater ecosystems. In this study, based on the principle of degradation of VCHs by indigenous microorganisms in groundwater, and combined with biostimulation and controlled-release technology, we developed a starch-based encapsulated targeted bionutrient (YH-1) with easy uptake, good stability, controllable slow-release migration, and long timeliness for the remediation of groundwater contaminated by VCHs by indigenous microorganisms. The results showed that YH-1 is easily absorbed by microorganisms and can rapidly initiate itself to stimulate the microbial degradation of VCHs, and the degradation rate of various VCH components within 7 days was 82.38-92.38 %. The release rate of nutrient components in YH-1 increases with increasing VCH concentrations in groundwater; this could effectively prolong the action time of nutrient components, while also improving the degradation efficiency of pollutants with a sustained effect of more than 15 days. Simultaneously, owing to the fluidity, water solubility, and biodegradability of YH-1 in lithologic media, YH-1 injection did not cause blockage of the lithologic media in the aquifer. Through YH-1 stimulation, indigenous microorganisms grew rapidly in the underground environment, the diversity of microbial communities and the total number of species increased, and the correlation between genera strengthened. Simultaneously, YH-1 improved the ability of microbial community to convert inorganic electron donors/acceptors, thereby strengthening the co-metabolic mechanism between microorganisms. Additionally, there was a significant increase in the percentage of many microorganisms (e.g., Sphingomonas, Janthinobacterium, Duganella, etc.) that mediated the reductive dechlorination process and were redox inorganic electron donors/acceptors. This was conducive to the reductive dechlorination process of VCHs and achieved the efficient degradation of VCHs.
