Abstract

To deal with issues from global climate changes, renewable bioenergy has become important. Algae have been regarded as a good resource for biorefinery and bioenergy, and also have potential capability to remove nutrient and non-decompositional pollutants for wastewater advanced treatment. Although algal-bacterial ecological interaction would be a crucially important factor in using algae for wastewater advanced treatment and resource recovery from wastewater, very little is known about ecological interaction between algae and bacteria in a real wastewater environment. In this study, under a real municipal wastewater condition, we characterized wastewater pollutant treatability and bacterial communities in response to growth of Ankistrodesmus gracilis SAG278-2, which can grow in wastewater and has a high lipid contents. The growth of algal population using the wastewater was inhibited by increase in wastewater bacteria while bacterial survival and cellular decay rate were not influenced by the algal growth. Removals of recalcitrant organic matters and total nitrogen were improved in the presence of algal growth. According to T-RFLP and statistical analysis, algal growth affected time-course changes in bacterial community structures. The following 16S rRNA gene amplicon, cloning results showed that the algal growth changes in bacterial community structure, and that bacterial populations belonging to Sediminibacterium, Sphingobacterium, Mucilaginibacter genera were identified as cooperative with the algal growth in the wastewater.

주요 신재생에너지인 바이오에너지의 일환으로 조류를 이용한 바이오에너지 및 자원화 기술에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 조류는 영양염류 제거 능력을 활용해서 하수와 같은 오폐수 내 난분해성오염물질과 영양염류 제거의 고도처리도 가능하다. 조류와 박테리아 간의 생태적인 상호작용이 조류를 활용한 하수처리 및 하수자원화에 중요한 역할을 함에도 불구하고, 실지 하수 조건에서 조류와 박테리아간의 생태학적인 상호작용에 관한 과학적인 정보가 부족하다. 본 연구에서는 하수에서 배양이 잘 되고, 지질함량이 높다고 알려진 국내 조류 종인 Ankistrodesmus gracilis SAG 278-2의 하수오염물질 제거 특성과 조류 주입에 따른 하수 박테리아 군집의 반응을 실지 하수 조건에서 연구하였다. 하수 박테리아의 수가 증가는 조류의 성장 속도를 감소시켰으나, 반면 조류의 성장은 박테리아의 생존 및 내성호흡 생분해 속도에는 영향을 주지 않았다. 조류가 주입된 하수에서 난분해성 유기물질 및 총질소의 제거 향상이 관찰되었다. 박테리아 16S rRNA 유전자 T-RFLP 분석에 따르면 조류의 주입은 시간에 따라 박테리아 군집에 영향을 주었다. 박테리아 16S rRNA 유전자 PCR 증폭, clone 및 염기서열 분석 결과, 하수 내 조류의 성장은 박테리아 군집 구성을 변화시키며, 조류와 함께 공동 성장 가능한 박테리아는 Sediminibacterium, Sphingobacterium, Mucilaginibacter 속에 속하는 개체로 판명되었다.
