ABSTRACT
A strain of high-efficiency bioflocculant-producting bacteria,which was named TJ-3,was screened from sewage sludge.The strain was gram-negative and rod-shaped in physiological biochemical test and was identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa by 16S rDNA Sequencing.According to the growth curve of the TJ-3 strain,the growth stabilization period is long so that Microbial Flocculants(MBF) production is stable.The MBF produced by the TJ-3 strain is able to flocculante kaolin suspension with 98.2%.The MBF activity distribution tests show that most of the active components of the bioflocculant exist in deposition after centrifufation.When pH is 8.5,1%(quality fraction) CaCl2 Solution dosing quantity is 3.5 mL,bioflocculant dosing quantity is 1.5 mL in 100 mL kaolin suspension,the bioflocculant has an optimal flocculation.
