Rôle de différents compartiments microbiens (biofilms, matières en suspension, sédiments de surface) et de leurs constituants (bactéries, polymères extracellulaires et biominéraux) sur la méthylation et la réduction de HgII / Role of different microbial compartments (biofilms, suspended matters, surface sediment) and some of them components (bacterial cells, extracellular polymeric substances and biominerals) on HgII methylation and reduction

Remy, Paul-Philippe 01 July 2015 (has links)
La formation de méthylmercure, la forme la plus toxique du mercure, est due à l’activité bactérienne anaérobie. Afin de connaître la contribution des compartiments microbiens (biofilms, eaux brutes, sédiments) dans la méthylation du mercure, nous avons évalué les vitesses de méthylation d’échantillons de mares de région tempérée (Lorraine) et subarctique (Québec, Canada). Si les bactéries des biofilms ne semblent pas plus méthylantes que d’autres, le sédiment apparait comme le compartiment le plus méthylant en lien avec la concentration en nutriments ainsi qu’avec la température. Ainsi, les changements climatiques actuels, en augmentant la température de l’eau et en favorisant l’activité biologique, peuvent faire de ces mares des sites préférentiels de la méthylation du mercure en milieu subarctique. Enfin, l’activité des biofilms a mené à la formation de rouille verte, un minéral capable de réduire HgII en mercure élémentaire, concurrençant ainsi la méthylation bactérienne / Monomethylmercury formation, the neurotoxic form of mercury, is mainly linked to anaerobic microbial activity. In order to assess the relative contribution of several microbial compartments (biofilms, raw water and sediment) we evaluated methylation of samples from ponds of temperate area (Lorraine, France) and from subarctic ponds (Nunavik, Quebec). Biofilms were not found to specifically promote mercury methylation, whereas sediment emerges as the main compartment involved in mercury methylation. The formation of methylmercury is positively linked to the temperature and to nutrients. Thus, by increasing the open water period, the water temperature and of the microbial activity, current climate changes may turn these ponds in preferential location for mercury methylation in the subarctic ecosystem. Finally, the reactivity of green rust, a mineral which can be produced by bacterial activity of environmental biofilms, may compete with mercury methylation by reducing HgII into Hg0

Caracterização microbiana e remoção do alquilbenzeno linear sulfonado em reator EGSB / Microbial characterization and removal of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate in EGSB reactor

Delforno, Tiago Palladino 18 March 2011 (has links)
O presente trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar a eficiência de remoção do surfactante aniônico alquilbenzeno linear sulfonado (LAS) em reator anaeróbio de leito granular expandido - EGSB (1,5 litros) com recirculação e alimentação com meio mineral. Além de caracterizar filogeneticamente a diversidade de bactérias na presença do surfactante. O sistema foi operado em condição mesofílica em 4 etapas: (I), (II) e (IV) com TDH de 32 horas, e (III) com TDH de 26 horas. Em todas as etapas a DQO foi em média de 609 \'+ OU -\' 137 mg/L e 14 \'+ OU -\' 1,71 mg/L de LAS afluente. As maiores remoções de LAS foram verificada nas etapas II e IV, com valores de 73,6 \'+ OU -\' 5,6% e 63,6 \'+ OU -\' 6,17%, respectivamente de. Na etapa III essa remoção foi de 47,8 \'+ OU -\' 6,2%. Por meio do balanço de massa constatou-se que 56,6% do total de LAS adicionado foram removidos compreendendo 48,4% por biodegradação e 8,2% por adsorção. A remoção de matéria orgânica não foi afetada com a adição do LAS e nem pela exposição prolongada a esse surfactante. Entretanto, a estrutura do grânulo foi comprometida quando da adição do surfactante, observado pelo aumento da concentração de sólidos totais efluente de 0,049 g/L na etapa I (sem LAS), 0,128 g/L na etapa II, 0,064 g/L na etapa III e 0,038 g/L na etapa IV, quando da adição de 14 \'+ OU -\' 1,71 mg LAS/L. Além disso, foi notada diminuição do diâmetro médio dos grânulos no decorrer da operação do reator de 0,36 cm nas etapas I e III para 0,34 cm na etapa IV. Por meio da técnica de tubos múltiplos (NMP) foi constatado aumento das bactérias anaeróbias totais e diminuição das arqueias metanogênicas, em função do tempo de operação do reator. As bactérias redutoras de ferro representaram 8% da biomassa anaeróbia na etapa IV. Por meio do seqüenciamento da região 16S do RNAr para o domínio Bacteria da biomassa da extremidade superior do reator e da biomassa do leito, foi verificado semelhança com os seguintes filos Proteobacteria, Firmicutes e Synergistetes. Notou-se diferença significativa entre as bibliotecas de clones para essas duas amostras. / This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of removal of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS) in expanded bed reactor (1.5 liters) using granular sludge (EGSB) with recirculation and feed with mineral medium modified. The system was operated at mesophilic condition in four stages: (I) (II) and (IV) with HRT of 32 hours, and (III) with HRT of 26 hours. At all stages the COD averaged 609 \'+ OR -\' 137 mg/L and 14 \'+ OR -\' 1.71 mg/L LAS influent. The higher removals of LAS were found in stages II and IV, respectively, 73.6 \'+ OR -\' 5.6% and 63.6 \'+ OR -\' 6.17%. In stage III this removal was 47.8 \'+ OR -\' 6.2%. Through mass balance was found that 56.6% of total LAS added were removed by biodegradation comprising 48.4% and 8.2% by adsorption. The organic matter removal was not affected by the addition of LAS and not by prolonged exposure to this surfactant. However, the granule structure was compromised after the addition of surfactant, the observed increase in effluent total solids concentration of 0.049 g/L in stage I (no LAS), 0.128 g/L in stage II, 0.064 g/L in stage III and 0.038 g/L in stage IV when adding 14 \'+ OR -\' 1.71 mg/L. Furthermore, it was noticed significant decrease in mean diameter of the granules during the operation of the reactor of 0.36 cm in stages I and III to 0.34 cm in stage IV. Through the multiple tube method (MPN) was found to increase the total anaerobic bacteria and methanogenic archaea decreased depending on the time of reactor operation. Iron-reducing bacteria accounted for 8% of anaerobic bacteria total in step IV. By sequencing the 16S rRNA for the domain Bacteria biomass from the upper end of the reactor and the biomass of the bed, was found similar to the following phyla Proteobacteria, Firmicutes and Synergistetes. Significant difference was noted between the clone libraries for these two samples.

Influence de l'activité bactérienne ferro-oxydante et ferriréductrice sur les propriétés minéralogiques et micromécaniques du minerai de fer dans le contexte des mines abandonnées de Lorraine / Influence of the iron-oxidizing and iron-reducing bacterial activity on the mineral and micromecanical properties of the iron ore, in the frame work of the abandoned mines of Lorraine

Maitte, Baptiste 14 December 2015 (has links)
Les effondrements miniers en Lorraine (France) ont pour origine la rupture des piliers de soutien constitués de minerai de fer. Leur rupture n'est pas seulement due aux seules contraintes mécaniques qu’exerce le recouvrement mais également aux différentes transformations minéralogiques du minerai de fer, compromettant sa cohésion et sa résistance et par conséquent, la stabilité des piliers. On parle alors d’altération/vieillissement minéralogique du minerai de fer. Les mécanismes chimiques qui entrainent ces transformations minéralogiques sont désormais bien connus mais l’influence de l’activité bactérienne n’est pas encore bien comprise. Des travaux préliminaires ayant soulevé le rôle possible des activités microbiennes, ce travail de thèse s'est alors appliqué à identifier les métabolismes bactériens susceptibles de réagir avec le minerai de fer en conditions aérobie et anaérobie, et à en caractériser les effets physico-chimiques, minéralogiques et mécaniques. Les groupes métaboliques bactériens suspectés d’être impliqués dans ces réactions (activités ferri-réductrices, ferro-oxydantes et sulfato-réductrices) ont été identifiés dans les eaux de mine et incubés en présence du minerai de fer, en souche pure ou avec un consortium issu de l’eau de mine. Les bactéries ferri-réductrices (IRB), sulfato-réductrices (BSR) et acidophiles ferro-oxydantes ont été les seules qui, dans les conditions de laboratoire, ont impacté significativement le minerai en modifiant le ratio Fe(II)/Fe(III). Une phase ferro-carbonatée et de la pyrite se sont formées respectivement au cours des incubations avec les IRB et BSR, et ont été caractérisées par analyse du solide (spectroscopies infrarouge en réflexion diffuse (DRIFTS) et Mössbauer et par diffraction aux rayons X). Des bactéries nitrate-réductrices ont aussi été testées et aucune modification significative du ratio Fe(II)/Fe(III) du minerai de fer n’a été observée. Enfin, les propriétés mécaniques du minerai de fer ont été mesurées après les réactions d’oxydo-réduction biologiques et purement chimiques. Des modifications sensibles de ces propriétés mécaniques par rapport à l’état initial ont ainsi pu être mises en évidence. Sur la base de ces résultats, l’hypothèse de l’altération mécanique du minerai de fer par des activités microbiennes est donc tout à fait réaliste. / Mine collapses occurred in Lorraine (France) because of the failure of safety pillars made of iron ore. Their failure is not only due to the mechanic stresses applied by the overburden, but also due to the various mineralogical transformations in iron ore which decrease material cohesion and resistance and thus stability of pillars. This is called mineralogical alteration/ageing of iron ore. Chemical mechanisms inducing these mineralogical transformations are now well known but the influence of microbial activity is not well understood yet. Preliminary works have raised the possible role of microbial activity, then the focus of this work was to identify the various bacterial metabolisms capable of reacting with iron ore and to characterize the physico-chemical, mineralogical and mechanical effects. The bacterial metabolism groups possibly implied in these reactions (iron-reducing (IRB), iron-oxidizing and sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB)) were identified from the mine water. As pure strain or as consortium, these bacteria were incubated with iron ore. Under laboratory conditions, only iron-reducing, sulfate-reducing and acidophilic iron-oxidizing bacteria impacted iron ore samples by modifying the Fe(II)/Fe(III) ratio. A ferrous-carbonate phase and pyrite were formed during incubations with IRB and SRB, respectively. These minerals were characterized from analysis of the solid phase (Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy (DRIFTS), Mössbauer spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction). The impact nitrate-reducing bacteria was also tested but the Fe(II)/Fe(III) ratio of iron ore was not modified significantly. Finally, mechanical properties of iron ore were measured after microbial and purely chemical redox reactions. Discernible modifications of these mechanical properties were observed. From these results, the alteration of iron ore mechanical properties by bacterial activities is a realistic assumption.
