Influence des paramètres environnementaux sur la biosynthèse d’éthers de glycérol bactériens : étude de modèles biologiques et exemples d’applications (paléo)environnementales / Influence of environmental parameters on the biosynthesis of bacterial glycerol ether lipids : study of biological models and examples of (paleo)environmental applicationsVinçon-Laugier, Arnauld 23 May 2017 (has links)
Certaines Bacteria synthétisent des phospholipides particuliers dont la structure possède des caractéristiques communes aux lipides des Bacteria et des Archaea : les éthers de glycérol bactériens (AGE). Le caractère singulier de ces lipides et leur structure chimique thermostable leur permettent d'être assez bien préservés dans l'environnement à la mort des cellules, et suggèrent leur potentiel à constituer de bons marqueurs biogéochimiques et/ou environnementaux. Cependant, très peu d'informations sont actuellement disponibles concernant les modes de formation et le rôle des AGE dans les membranes bactériennes. Au cours de cette thèse, nous avons étudié la composition lipidique de différentes souches pures de bactéries anaérobies sulfato-réductrices capables de synthétiser des AGE et cultivées dans différentes conditions contrôlées de température, pH et salinité. Diverses modifications structurales des AGE ont notamment été mises en évidence en réponse à des variations des conditions de croissance, dont certaines spécifiques d'une adaptation, et linéairement corrélées, à la température ou à la salinité. Les différents résultats démontrent l'implication des AGE dans l'adaptation membranaire en réponse à des variations physico-chimiques du milieu, et permettent d'envisager l'utilisation de la distribution structurale des AGE dans des échantillons naturels comme indicateur de conditions environnementales. L'analyse de la composition en AGE d'échantillons issus de différents écosystèmes actuels et anciens, caractérisés par des conditions environnementales contrastées a permis de vérifier le potentiel de certains AGE à être utilisés comme indicateurs de variations de conditions (paléo)environnementales / Some Bacteria synthesize particular phospholipids, called glycerol ether lipids (AGE) which have a chemical structure at the intersection of the Bacteria and Archea domains. The singular nature of these lipids and their thermostable chemical structure allow them to be well preserved in the environment following bacterial lysis, and suggest their potential to constitute good biogeochemical and/or environmental biomarkers. However, very little information is currently available concerning the modes of formation and the role of AGEs in bacterial membranes. In this thesis, we studied the lipid composition of various pure strains of anaerobic sulfate-reducing bacteria able to synthesize AGEs, grown under various controlled conditions of temperature, pH and salinity. Various structural modifications of AGE were observed in response to variations in growth conditions, some of which being specific to, and linearly correlated with, changes in temperature or salinity. The results demonstrate the involvement of AGEs in membrane adaptation to changes in the physico-chemical conditions, and suggest the use of the structural distribution of AGEs in natural samples as an indicator of environmental conditions. The analysis of the AGE content of samples from different actual and past ecosystems, allowed confirming the potential of AGEs to be used as indicators of variations of (paleo)environmental conditions

Desenvolvimento de metodologias para a determinação da atividade biogênica de bactérias redutoras de sulfato / Development of methodologies for the determination of biogenic activities from sulfater educing bacteriaJuliana Cristina de Queiroz 13 March 2015 (has links)
Comissão Nacional de Energia Nuclear / A corrosão causada por H2S biogênico frequentemente resulta em danos extensos na indústria do petróleo. O presente trabalho avaliou parâmetros de crescimento microbiano e aplicou metodologias de determinação de sulfetos por técnicas espectrofotométrica na região da luz visível e radiorespirométrica para avaliação da atividade metabólica, correlacionando com a população de bactérias redutoras de sulfato, determinada através da técnica do Número Mais Provável (NMP). Amostras de água de formação e consórcio de BRS foram avaliadas através do arraste de sulfetos estáveis produzidos biogenicamente e quantificados por espectrofotometria. O cálculo das velocidades instantâneas e específicas de produção de sulfetos permitiu avaliar de que maneira alguns parâmetros de crescimento microbiano podem afetar o metabolismo das BRS. A detecção de concentrações traço de sulfetos biogênicos pode ser realizada através de ensaios radiorespirométricos. Para isto, diluições em série de água do mar sintética com três amostras distintas foram avaliadas. Os testes realizados indicam que o acréscimo do tempo de incubação de cultura microbiana anaeróbia mista contribuiu para o aumento das capacidades de redução de sulfato, assim como o aumento das fontes de carbono. Ambas as técnicas provaram ser um rápido teste para a detecção de sulfetos biogênicos, particularmente aqueles associados aos produtos de corrosão, sendo uma ferramenta muito útil para monitoração e controle de tanques de armazenamento de água e óleo, plataformas continentais de petróleo e diversos tipos de reservatórios. O presente trabalho prevê a continuidade dos experimentos, através de avaliação de um maior universo de amostras da indústria do petróleo e medições menos espaçadas da técnica espectrofotométrica, além da avaliação radiorespirométrica em modo contínuo, evitando os efeitos inibitórios do H2S / Corrosion caused by biogenic H2S often results in extensive damage, being one of the main problems of petroleum industry. The objective of the present work was to evaluate microbial growth parameters and apply methodologies for sulfide detection by spectrometric at visible light and radiorespirometric techniques for estimate the metabolic activity, correlating with population of Sulfate Reducing Bacteria, through the More Probable Number (MPN) technique. Samples of formation water and SBR consortium were evaluated through drag of stable sulfides biogenically produced and quantified by spectrometry. The calculations of instant and specific rates of sulfide production allow evaluating how some microbial growth parameters may affect the SRB metabolism. The detection of trace concentrations of biogenic sulfides, undetectable by spectrometry technique, may be realized by radiorespirometric assays. For this step, serial dilutions of synthetic seawater with three distinct samples were evaluated. The realized test indicates that increasing the time of incubation of a mixed anaerobic microbial culture contributed to an increase in the capabilities of sulfate reduction, as well as the amount of carbon source. Both techniques proved to be a rapid test for the detection of biogenic sulfides, particularly those associated to corrosion products, being an useful tool for monitoring and controlling oil/water storage tanks, petroleum continental platforms and several types of reservoirs. The present work provides the continuous of the experiments, using a bigger universe of samples of petroleum industry and less spaced measuring of spectrometric technique, further the radiorespirometric evaluation in continuous mode, avoiding the H2S inhibitory effects

Avaliação de biocidas no controle da corrosão microbiologicamente induzida do aço carbono 1020 por bactérias redutoras de sulfato / Evaluation of biocides on the control of microbiologically-influenced corrosion of 1020 carbon steel by sulfate-reducing bacteriaPriscila Santos da Silva 08 May 2015 (has links)
Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / Bactérias redutoras de sulfato (BRS) são os principais micro-organismos envolvidos na corrosão microbiologicamente induzida (CMI). Estas bactérias reduzem o sulfato, tendo como resultado a produção de H2S, o que pode influenciar os processos anódico e catódico na corrosão de materiais metálicos em ambientes marinhos, óleos e solos úmidos. Uma das formas de prevenir e controlar esse tipo de corrosão é a adição de biocidas ao meio corrosivo. Esta dissertação tem como objetivo avaliar o uso de biocidas no controle da CMI do aço AISI 1020 por BRS. Para isto, o comportamento da CMI no aço foi avaliado em água do mar sintética, em condições de anaerobiose, na ausência e na presença de uma cultura mista contendo BRS. Um biocida natural (óleo de alho) e outro comercial (glutaraldeído) foram utilizados para controlar a corrosão causada por estas bactérias. Duas formas de adição de biocida foram avaliadas: antes da formação do biofilme e após sua formação na superfície do metal. O crescimento microbiano na superfície do aço foi avaliado através da quantificação das BRS sésseis, pelo método do número mais provável (NMP). O comportamento eletroquímico do aço, na ausência e na presença de BRS e também para os ensaios com biocidas, foi estudado através das técnicas de espectroscopia de impedância eletroquímica (EIE) e polarização potenciodinâmica, sempre usando água do mar sintética como meio eletrolítico. A formação de biofilme e de produtos de corrosão na superfície do aço foi observada através da microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV). Os resultados mostraram que o aço exposto ao meio contendo BRS apresentou um processo corrosivo mais acelerado, quando comparado aos sistemas na ausência de micro-organismo. Esse processo foi evidenciado por um decréscimo na magnitude do arco capacitivo, nos ensaios de EIE, e um aumento da densidade de corrente de corrosão (Icorr), nos ensaios de polarização. Na análise de MEV, foi possível observar a formação de corrosão localizada após a remoção do biofilme da superfície. Os ensaios com biocidas, adicionados antes da formação de biofilmes, mostraram uma redução no número de bactérias sésseis, quando comparados com os ensaios sem biocida realizados pelo mesmo período de tempo (7 dias). Foi verificado também um decréscimo do processo corrosivo do aço, evidenciado através de aumento nos arcos capacitivos, nos ensaios de EIE e pelos menores valores de Icorr nos ensaios de polarização, quando comparados com o biofilme formado sem biocidas, nas mesmas condições. Apesar de não ter inibido completamente o crescimento das BRS sésseis, o óleo de alho apresentou maior redução no processo corrosivo quando comparado ao glutaraldeído, indicando sua possível aplicação como biocida natural nestas condições. Os ensaios realizados com biocidas adicionados após a formação do biofilme mostraram que o glutaraldeído apresentou alta eficácia em reduzir o número de células sésseis. Já o óleo de alho exibiu uma ação menos efetiva, sugerindo que este composto não conseguiu penetrar completamente a matriz do biofilme. Entretanto, ambos causaram aceleração do processo corrosivo do aço no meio estudado após 7 dias de exposição / Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) are the most important microorganisms involved in the microbiologically-influenced corrosion (MIC). These bacteria reduce sulfate, resulting in the production of H2S, which may influence the anodic and cathodic processes in the corrosion of metallic materials in marine environments, oil and wet soils. One way to prevent and control this type of corrosion is the addition of biocides to the corrosive environment. This work aims to evaluate the use of biocides to control MIC of AISI 1020 steel by SRB. For this, the behavior of MIC in carbon steel was evaluated in artificial seawater, under anaerobic conditions, in the absence and in the presence of a mixed culture containing SRB. A natural biocide (garlic oil) and a commercial one (glutaraldehyde) were used to control the corrosion caused by these bacteria. Two ways of biocide addition were evaluated: before the formation of biofilm and after its formation on the metal surface. Microbial growth on the steel surface was evaluated by quantifying the sessile SRB, by using the most probable number method (MPN).The electrochemical behavior of the steel in the absence and presence of SRB, as well as in the experiments containing the biocides, was studied by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization, always using artificial seawater as the electrolytic medium. The biofilm formation and the corrosion products on the steel surface were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).The results showed that the steel exposed to medium containing SRB exhibited an accelerated corrosion process when compared to systems without the microorganisms. This process was evidenced by a decrease in the magnitude of the capacitive loop, in EIS experiments, and an increase of the corrosion current density (Icorr), in polarization tests. By SEM analysis, it was possible to observe the formation of localized corrosion after the biofilm removal. The experiments with biocides, added before the formation of biofilms, showed a reduction in the number of sessile bacteria, compared with the tests without biocide performed on the same time period (7 days). It was also found a decrease in steel corrosive process, evidenced by an increase in the capacitive loops in the EIS tests, and by the smaller Icorr values in polarization tests, when compared to the biofilm formatted without biocides under the same conditions. Although it has not completely inhibited the growth of BRS sessile, garlic oil showed a greater reduction in corrosion process when compared to glutaraldehyde, indicating its possible application as a natural biocide under these conditions. The experiments performed with biocides added after the biofilm formation showed that glutaraldehyde exhibited high efficacy in reducing the number of sessile cells. On the contrary, the garlic oil exhibited a less effective action, suggesting that this compound could not completely penetrate the biofilm matrix. However, both biocides accelerated the steel corrosion process in the studied medium after 7 days of exposure

Efeito de surfactantes na estimativa da densidade bacteriana em amostras de petróleo / The effect of surfactants on the estimation bacterial density in petroleum samplesKelly Yaeko Miyashiro de Almeida 30 January 2007 (has links)
Foi examinado o efeito dos surfactantes polisorbato 60 (Tween 60), polisorbato 80 (Tween 80), brometo de cetil trimetil amônio (CTAB) e lauril sulfato de sódio (SDS) na estimativa da densidade de Bactérias Redutoras de Sulfato (BRS) e Bactérias Anaeróbias Heterotróficas Totais (BANHT) em amostras de petróleo. Para a realização dos experimentos, foram selecionadas três amostras com diferentes proporções de óleo e água de forma a representar amostras reais. A primeira amostra contém uma alta proporção de óleo, a segunda uma proporção média e a última amostra uma baixa proporção de óleo. A densidade bacteriana foi estimada através do método do Número Mais Provável (NMP). As concentrações dos surfactantes empregadas neste estudo foram estabelecidas através de estudo anterior. Os resultados demonstram que nas amostras com alta e média proporção de óleo, a adição dos surfactantes não foi favorável a um aumento na quantificação de BRS. Por outro lado, o Tween 60 e o Tween 80 mostraram um aumento significativo na quantificação de BANHT quando aplicados na concentração de 0,01% e 0,03% m/v, respectivamente. O CTAB favoreceu o crescimento de BRS e BANHT na amostra com baixa proporção de óleo quando sua concentração foi de 0,001% m/v e 0,0001% m/v, respectivamente / The effect of the surfactants (Tween 60), polyoxyethylene monooleate (Tween 80), cetyl, trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on the estimation of bacterial density (sulfate reducing bacteria SRB and General Anaerobic Bacteria GanB) was examined in the petroleum samples. In order to carry out the experiments, we selected three different mixtures of oil and water to be representative of the real samples. The first one contains a high proportion of oil, the second contains a medium proportion and the last one contains a low proportion. The most probable number (MPN) was used to estimate the bacterial density. The concentrations of the surfactants used in this work were determined in a previous study. The results showed that the addition of surfactants did not improve the SRB quantification for the high or medium proportion of oil of the petroleum samples. On other hand, Tween 60 and Tween 80 showed a significantly increase on the GanB quantification when their concentrations were 0.01% and 0.03% m/v, respectively. CTAB increased the SRB and GanB estimation for the low proportion of oil of the petroleum sample when its concentration was 0.001% and 0.0001% m/v, respectively

Oxydation anaérobie du méthane couplée à la réduction de différents composés du soufre en bioréacteurs / Anaerobic oxidation of methane coupled to the reduction of different sulfur compounds in bioreactorsCassarini, Chiara 28 June 2017 (has links)
De grandes quantités de méthane sont générées dans les sédiments marins, mais l'émission dans l'atmosphère de ce gaz à effet de serre important est en partie contrôlé par oxydation anaérobie de méthane couplé à la réduction de sulfate (SR AOM). AOM-SR est médiée par des méthanotrophes anaérobies (ANME) et bactéries sulfato-réductrices (SRB). AOM-SR est non seulement la régulation du cycle du méthane, mais il peut être utile appliquée pour la désulfuration des eaux usées industrielles au détriment du méthane comme source de carbone. Cependant, il a une bouilloire jambe pour contrôler et comprendre pleinement ce processus, principalement en raison de la lenteur croissante de l'ANME. Cette recherche a étudié de nouvelles approches pour contrôler et enrichiront ANME AOM SR et SRB dans le but final de la conception d'un bioréacteur approprié pour AOM SR à la pression ambiante et la température. Ceci a été réalisé en étudiant l'effet de (i) la pression et (ii) l'utilisation de différents composés du soufre comme accepteurs d'électrons sur AOM, (iii) la caractérisation de la communauté microbienne et (iv) L'identification des facteurs contrôlant la croissance des ANME et SRB .Théoriquement, le méthane des pressions partielles élevées favorisent AOM-SR, en plus de méthane sera dissoute et biodisponible. La première approche impliquait l'incubation d'un sédiments marins peu profonds (lac marin Gravelines) sous des gradients de pression. De manière surprenante, la plus haute AOM-SR activité a été obtenue à basse pression (MPa 00:45), montrant l'actif ANME méthane préféré faible disponibilité sur haute pression (10, 20, 40 MPa). Fait intéressant, ook l'abondance et la structure des différents types de ANME et CVN Piloté par pression.En outre, les micro-organismes présents dans les sédiments d'oxydation anaérobie de méthane ont été enrichies avec du méthane en tant que substrat dans le filtre de percolateur (BTF) aux conditions ambiantes. Autres composés de soufre (sulfate, thiosulfate et en soufre élémentaire) ont été utilisés comme accepteurs d'électrons. Quand a été utilisé comme thiosulfate accepteur d'électrons, son dismutation en sulfate et de sulfure a été la conversion de soufre dominant, mais les taux les plus élevés UTILE AOM-SR ont été enregistrés dans ce BTF. Par conséquent, AOM peut être directement couplé à la réduction ou thiosulfate, ou à la réduction du sulfate produit par le thiosulfate de dismutation. De plus, l'utilisation de thiosulfate a déclenché l'enrichissement ou SRB. D'autres termes, on a obtenu le plus haut ou l'enrichissement ANME Lorsque seul le sulfate a été utilisé comme accepteur d'électrons.Dans un BTF avec du sulfate en tant qu'accepteur d'électrons, tous deux ANME et SRB ont été enrichies à partir de sédiments marins et les flux de carbone à l'intérieur des micro-organismes enrichis ont été étudiés par fluorescence in situ échelle hybridation nanomètres spectrométrie de masse d'ions secondaires (SIMS Nano-FISH). Les résultats préliminaires montrent l'absorption du méthane par un groupe spécifique de SRB.ANME et SRB adaptée aux conditions de sédiments profonds ont été enrichis dans un BTF à la pression ambiante et de la température. Le BTF est une combinaison bioréacteur de démarrage pour l'enrichissement ou lente des micro-organismes en croissance. De plus, peut être utilisé thiosulfate pour activer les sédiments et enrichir la communauté SRB plus d'enrichir la population stratégie ANME pour obtenir une haute AOM SR et plus rapide taux de croissance ANME et SRB pour les applications futures / Large amounts of methane are generated in marine sediments, but the emission to the atmosphere of this important greenhouse gas is partly controlled by anaerobic oxidation of methane coupled to sulfate reduction (AOM-SR). AOM-SR is mediated by anaerobic methanotrophs (ANME) and sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB). AOM-SR is not only regulating the methane cycle but it can also be applied for the desulfurization of industrial wastewater at the expense of methane as carbon source. However, it has been difficult to control and fully understand this process, mainly due to the slow growing nature of ANME. This research investigated new approaches to control AOM-SR and enrich ANME and SRB with the final purpose of designing a suitable bioreactor for AOM-SR at ambient pressure and temperature. This was achieved by studying the effect of (i) pressure and of (ii) the use of different sulfur compounds as electron acceptors on AOM, (iii) characterizing the microbial community and (iv) identifying the factors controlling the growth of ANME and SRB.Theoretically, elevated methane partial pressures favor AOM-SR, as more methane will be dissolved and bioavailable. The first approach involved the incubation of a shallow marine sediment (marine Lake Grevelingen) under pressure gradients. Surprisingly, the highest AOM-SR activity was obtained at low pressure (0.45 MPa), showing that the active ANME preferred scarce methane availability over high pressure (10, 20, 40 Mpa). Interestingly, also the abundance and structure of the different type of ANME and SRB were steered by pressure.Further, microorganisms from anaerobic methane oxidizing sediments were enriched with methane gas as the substrate in biotrickling filters (BTF) at ambient conditions. Alternative sulfur compounds (sulfate, thiosulfate and elemental sulfur) were used as electron acceptors. When thiosulfate was used as electron acceptor, its disproportionation to sulfate and sulfide was the dominating sulfur conversion, but also the highest AOM-SR rates were registered in this BTF. Therefore, AOM can be directly coupled to the reduction of thiosulfate, or to the reduction of sulfate produced by thiosulfate disproportionation. Moreover, the use of thiosulfate triggered the enrichment of SRB. Differently, the highest enrichment of ANME was obtained when only sulfate was used as electron acceptor.In a BTF with sulfate as electron acceptor, both ANME and SRB were enriched from marine sediment and the carbon fluxes within the enriched microorganisms were studied through fluorescence in-situ hybridization-nanometer scale secondary ion mass spectrometry (FISH-NanoSIMS). Preliminary results showed the uptake of methane by a specific group of SRB.ANME and SRB adapted to deep sediment conditions were enriched in a BTF at ambient pressure and temperature. The BTF is a suitable bioreactor for the enrichment of slow growing microorganisms. Moreover, thiosulfate can be used to activate the sediment and enrich the SRB community to further enrich the ANME population as strategy to obtain high AOM-SR and faster ANME and SRB growth rates for future applications

Degradação anaeróbia de tolueno em reatores em batelada / not availableEdmar Delegá da Silva 13 February 2004 (has links)
O presente trabalho avaliou a degradação anaeróbia de tolueno por Bactérias Redutoras de Sulfato (BRS), utilizando como inóculo lodo anaeróbio proveniente de reator UASB. Os ensaios foram realizados com reatores em batelada de 2300 mL contendo meio de cultura específico para o crescimento de BRS. No ensaio de enriquecimento, com lactato de sódio (2230 mg/L) e acetato de sódio (670 mg/L) na ausência de tolueno, ocorreu consumo total de sulfato (aproximadamente 1070 mg/L) em 192 horas e percentual de metano de 31% em 72 horas. A degradação do tolueno foi realizada em reatores sulfetogênicos e metanogênicos. Nos reatores sulfetogênicos alimentados com 2,1 mg/L e 7,7 mg/L houve degradação total do tolueno em 264 e 792 horas, respectivamente. Nesses reatores foi observado consumo total de sulfato e percentual de metano de aproximadamente 20,9%. Nos reatores metanogênicos a degradação do tolueno foi de, no máximo, 53%, e percentual de metano de 27,3% em 1032 horas. Nas condições sulfetogênicas, a degradação do tolueno foi mais rápida se comparada às condições metanogênicas. E em ambas as condições, a produção de metano foi relacionada aos bacilos hidrogenotróficos. As alterações na diversidade da população microbiana presente nos reatores, observadas em microscopia ótica, foram confirmadas nas análises por biologia molecular. / The present work evaluated the anaerobic degradation of toluene by sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB), using anaerobic sludge from reactor UASB as inoculum. The essays were accomplished in batch reactors of 2300 mL containing specific culture medium for the growth of SRB. In the enrichment essay with sodium lactate (2230 mg/L) and sodium acetate (670 mg/L) without toluene accured total consumption of sulfate (approximately 1070 mg/L) in 192 hours and percentile of methane of 31% in 72 hours. The toluene degradation it was accomplished in sulfetogenics and methanogenics reactors. In the sulfetogenics reactors fed with 2,1 mg/L and 7,7 mg/L there was total degradation of toluene in 264 and 792 hours, respectively. In those reactors it was observed total consumption of sulfate and percentile of methane of approximately 20.9%. In the methanogenic reactors the degradation of toluene was to the utmost of 53%, accompanied of production of 27.3% of methane in 1032 hours. In the sulfetogenics conditions, the degradation of tolueno was faster if compared to the methanogenic conditions. In both conditions, the methane production was related to the hidrogenotrophic bacilli. The alterations in the diversity of the microbial population present in the reactors, observed by optic microscopy, were confirmed in the analysis by molecular biology.

Corrosion behaviour of ferrous and non-ferrous alloys exposed to sulphate - reducing bacteria in industrial heat exchangersPrithiraj, Alicia January 2018 (has links)
M.Tech. (Department of Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering and Technology), Vaal University of Technology / Corrosion responses of some carbon steels, stainless steel and copper alloys in the presence of a culture of bacteria (referred to as SRB-Sulphate-reducing bacteria) found in industrial heat exchangers, was studied to recommend best alloys under this service condition, with techno-economic consideration. Water from cooling towers in three plants in a petrochemical processing complex were analysed for SRB presence. Two of the water samples showed positive indication of SRB presence. The mixed cultures obtained from plant one were grown in prepared media and incubated at 35 °C for 18 days. Potentiodynamic polarisation studies in anaerobic conditions were done on the selected alloys in aqueous media with and without the grown SRB. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) were then used to study the corrosion morphology and corrosion products formation. The voltamograms show higher icorr for alloys under the SRB compared to the control media, indicating the SRB indeed increased the corrosion rates. The surface analysis showed pitting on steel alloy ASTM A106-B. Localised attack to the grain boundaries on a selective area, was seen on ASTM A516-70 dislodging the grains, and intergranular corrosion was seen throughout the exposed area of ASTM A179. Copper alloys showed pitting on ASTM B111 grade C71500 (70-30), and denickelification on ASTM B111 grade C70600 (90-10), and is a good alternative material for use apart from carbon steel alloys, recording a low corrosion rate of 0.05 mm/year. The EDS analysis supported the findings showing higher weight percent of iron and sulphur on surface of the alloys after exposure to the SRB media. This implies that the presence of the sulphur ion indeed increased the corrosion rate. ASTM A516-70 carbon steel was chosen as a suitable alternative material to the stainless steel in this environment. The Tafel plot recorded a corrosion rate of 1.08 mm/year for ASTM A516-70 when exposed to SRB media.

Crude oil-utilizing strain Desulfovibrio vulgaris D107G3, a mesophilic sulfate-reducing bacterium isolated from Bach Ho gas-oil field in Vung Tau, VietnamNguyen, Thi Thu Huyen, Tran, Thi Kim Thoa, Lai, Thuy Hien 29 December 2021 (has links)
Some of anaerobic, mesophilic sulfate-reducing bacteria that produce H₂S and cause microbial metal corrosion can degrade crude oil in anaerobic conditions. In this study, a mesophilic sulfate-reducing bacterial strain D107G3 isolated from Bach Ho gas-oil field in Vung Tau, Vietnam that is able to utilize crude oil in the anaerobic condition is reported. The strain D107G3 was classified as a Gram-negative bacterium by using Gram staining method. Basing on scanning microscopy observation, the cell of a strain D107G3 had a curved rod shape. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that the strain D107G3 was identified as Desulfovibrio vulgaris with 99.7% identity. The suitable conditions for its growth that was determined via estimating its H₂S production was the modified Postgate B medium containing 1% (v/v) crude oil, 1% NaCl (w/v), pH 7 and 300C incubation. In these conditions, the strain D107G3 can consume 11.4 % of crude oil total and oxidize heavy crude oil (≥ C45) for one month at anoxic condition. These obtained results not only contribute to the science but also continue to warn about the dangers of mesophilic sulfate reducing bacteria to the process of crude oil exploitation, use, and storage in Vung Tau, Vietnam. / Trong bài báo này, chủng vi khuẩn khử sunphat (KSF) ưa ấm D107G3 phân lập từ giếng khoan dầu khí mỏ Bạch Hổ, Vũng Tàu, Việt Nam có khả năng sử dụng dầu thô trong điều kiện kị khí được công bố.
