| Popis: | Oil is expected to continue to be one of the most important sources of energy in the world and world's energy matrix for the foreseeable future. However, high demand for energy and the decline of the production of oil fields makes oil recovery a challenge. Most techniques used for the recovery process are expensive, non-sustainable and technically difficult to implement. In this context, microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) represents an attractive alternative. It employs products derived from the metabolism of microorganisms that produce biopolymers. Certain bacteria species (e.g., Xanthomonas campestris) produce polysaccharides (exopolysaccharides – EPS) such as the well-known Xanthan gum (XG). We hypothesized that the use of produced water (PW) water in combination photo-stimulation with laser/LED could influence the production and composition of XG. Raman spectroscopy has been used for qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the biochemical composition of XG biopolymer under light stimulation. X. campestris cultures in either distilled water or dialysis-produced water were studied under the absence or presence of laser irradiation (λ = 660 nm, CW, spot size 0.040 cm2, 40 mW, 444 s, 8.0 J/cm2) or LED (λ = 630 nm ± 2 nm, CW, spot size 0.50 cm2, 140 mW, 500 s, 12 J/cm2). XG produced by these cultures was analyzed by Raman spectroscopy at 1064 nm excitation and subjected to principal component analysis (PCA). Results of the exploratory analysis and ANOVA general linear model (GLM) suggested that the extent of XG and pyruvate (pyruvyl mannose) production was affected differentially in X. campestris when cultured in distilled water plus LED photo-stimulation versus dialysis-produced water plus LED photo-stimulation. XG production increased in the distilled water culture. In contrast, both pyruvate acetyl mannose content went up in the dialysis-water culture. These results open a wide field of opportunities in the use of metal-enriched cultures in combination with photo-biomodulation to direct and optimize bacterial production of compounds (i.e., XG) that may be of great benefit in the implementation of sustainable practices for oil extraction. |
