Abstract

The oxidation of native and nitrocellulose (NC) treated with ultraviolet radiation and ozone (UV + ozone) by the community of active sludge (AS) microorganisms of treatment facilities, as well as by the combination of AS with sulfate-reducing Desulfovibrio desulfuricans VKM B-1388 and microscopic fungi Fusarium solani VKM F-819, is studied. It is shown that the use of pretreatment significantly increases the degree of decomposition of NC during its subsequent biodegradation by the symbiosis of AS microorganisms with D. desulfuricans and F. solani. The use of mutagenic treatment of AS with nitrosomethyl urea (NMU) allows the biocenosis of AS microorganisms with a contaminant-NC to maintain a high oxidizing ability with good sedimentation properties for 65 days of incubation. The degree of NC decomposition is 24.36%.
