Abstract:The catalytic degradation mechanism of petroleum hydrocarbons by Ferripyochelin (FerriPCH), formed by the combination of pyochelin (PCH) from the extracellular fluid of P. aeruginosa NY3 and Ferri, was investigated. The results showed that two chiral PCHs were produced by strain NY3. The purified PCH could degrade both alkanes and polycyclic aromatic compounds of petroleum hydrocarbon after combining with Ferri. A certain ratio of hexadecane, anthracene, as well as phenanthrene could be degraded by FerriPCH which formed by PCH and Ferri in the ratio from 2:1 to 1:1. In addition, degradation efficiency of aromatic hydrocarbons with low bio-availability was significantly higher than that of alkanes. Further studies showed that strongly oxidizing free radicals of •OH and •O2- produced after the binding of Ferri and PCH degraded petroleum hydrocarbons into carbon dioxide and water step by step.
