Abstract EN
This paper describes the use of Pichia pastoris X-33 as a bioremediator to reduce the chemical oxygen demand (COD), total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), and phosphorus (P-PO4 3−), after culture in parboiled rice effluent supplemented with p.a.
glycerol or a glycerol by-product of the biodiesel industry.
The greatest reduction in the COD (55%), TKN (45%), and P-PO4 3− (52%) of the effluent was observed in cultures of P.
pastoris X-33 supplemented with 15 g ·L−1 of biodiesel-derived glycerol.
Furthermore, the overall biomass yield was 2.1 g ·L−1.
These data suggest that biodiesel-derived glycerol is an efficient carbon source for the bioremediation of parboiled rice effluent and biomass production.
