Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of microorganisms, and in particular to halophilic hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria Halomonas sp. DH1 and its mixed preparation and application. Background Art

[0002] Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery (MEOR) utilizes the principle that certain microorganisms can degrade petroleum, increase the emulsification degree of petroleum, and reduce the viscosity of petroleum. By injecting microbial liquid into the formation, the physical and chemical properties of reservoir rocks and crude oil are changed through the microorganisms and their own metabolic activities and metabolites, so as to achieve the effect of displacing and stripping petroleum from depleted and highly water-cut reservoirs. It is a method with strong adaptability, low cost, easy construction and environmental friendliness, and can be used for the exploitation of unconventional petroleum resources, which is of great significance for the exploitation of remaining oil in reservoirs close to the economic limit.

[0003] In related technologies, usually after fermenting and culturing microorganisms with substrates such as grease and starch, they are then injected into the formation as oil-displacing agents. However, this operation method has problems such as complex construction operation, short effective period, and the nutrient components in the culture medium may affect the composition of the endogenous microbial community in the formation, thereby further affecting the microbial oil-displacement effect. Therefore, it is very important to isolate microorganisms that can metabolize biosurfactants using crude oil as the sole carbon source. Summary of the Invention

[0062] Example 1 (Isolation, identification and preservation of Halomonas) 1. Transfer 10 mL of the water sample collected from the oilfield into a triangular flask of crude oil inorganic salt medium (inoculate multiple samples), and shake and culture at 35 °C and 150 rpm for 1 week. Through preliminary screening, it is found that: there are microorganisms in some samples that can significantly emulsify the crude oil.

[0063] In a sterile operating bench, 100 μL of the fermentation broth of the experimental group with obvious crude oil emulsification was taken and spread on an LB agar plate medium, and cultured at 35 °C for 48 h. Single colonies with different morphologies on the LB agar plate medium were picked, streaked and purified on the LB agar plate medium, and cultured at 35 °C for 48 h. After enrichment culture of the picked purified single colonies, they were inoculated into a crude oil inorganic salt medium and cultured with shaking at 35 °C and 150 rpm for 72 h, and the strains corresponding to the experimental group with obvious crude oil emulsification were selected.

[0064] The emulsification and dispersion effect of strain DH1 on crude oil is as Figure 1 shown (left: the fermentation broth after culturing Halomonas in a crude oil inorganic salt medium for 4 days; right: the crude oil inorganic salt medium).

[0065] Through culture and domestication, strains DH1 and DH3 with good dispersion and emulsification effects on crude oil were isolated, and they can produce biosurfactants using crude oil as the sole carbon source.

[0066] 2. According to the conventional strain identification method, the genomic DNA of strains DH1 and DH3 was extracted, primers were designed for PCR amplification of 16S rRNA, the PCR amplification products were detected by agarose gel electrophoresis, and sent to Nanjing Personal Biotechnology Co., Ltd. for DNA sequencing. And the sequencing results of the PCR amplification products were submitted to NCBI and retrieved and compared for homology using BLAST.

[0067] The nucleotide sequence of 16S rRNA of strain DH1 is shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. After comparison, the homology of strain DH1 with Halomonas sp. is 99.92% (the representative strain / species of the most similar sequence in Genbank is MG561378.1 Halomonas sp. B35), and strain DH1 was determined to be Halomonas sp. . Strain DH1 was named Halomonas ( Halomonas sp. ) DH1 and was deposited in the China Center for Type Culture Collection (CCTCC) on June 3, 2024 (address: Wuhan University, Bayi Road, Wuchang District, Hubei Province), deposit number: CCTCC NO: M20241125.

[0068]

[0069] The nucleotide sequence of the 16S rRNA of strain DH3 is shown in SEQ ID NO: 2. After comparison, strain DH3 was named Dietzia ( Dietzia lutea ) DH3 and was deposited at the China Center for Type Culture Collection (CCTCC) (Address: Wuhan University, Bayi Road, Wuchang District, Wuhan City, Hubei Province) on June 3, 2024, with the deposit number: CCTCC NO: M20241127.

[0070]

[0071] Halomonas sp. DH1 and Dietzia sp. DH3 can be preserved by the following methods: (1) Short-term preservation: Streak Halomonas sp. DH1 or Dietzia sp. DH3 on a slant LB medium, culture at 35 °C for 48 h, and then store at 4 °C.

[0072] (2) Long-term preservation: (2.1) Glycerol cryopreservation method: Scrape several loops of freshly cultured Halomonas sp. DH1 or Dietzia sp. DH3 from the slant LB medium, transfer them into a 1.5 mL sterilized glycerol tube (prepared by mixing glycerol and sterile water at a volume ratio of 3:7) at 30 (v / v)%, and store at -70 °C.

[0073] (2.2) Skim milk cryopreservation method: Scrape several loops of freshly cultured Halomonas sp. DH1 or Dietzia sp. DH3 from the slant LB medium, transfer them into a glycerol tube containing sterilized skim milk, and store at -70 °C.

[0074] Preparation Example 1 This example provides a method for preparing a crude biosurfactant produced by Halomonas sp. DH1, and the steps are as follows: Take 2 mL of the activated Halomonas sp. DH1 bacterial solution, inoculate it into the fermentation medium at an inoculation amount of 5 (v / v)%, culture at 35 °C for 6 days, centrifuge at 10000 rpm for 3 min to remove the bacteria, and collect the supernatant. Mix the supernatant with absolute ethanol at a volume ratio of 1:4, let it stand overnight at 4 °C, centrifuge at 10000 rpm, collect the precipitate, dissolve the precipitate with an appropriate amount of water, and freeze-dry to obtain the crude DH1 surfactant.

[0075] Test Example 1 1. Add 2 (w / v)%, 4 (w / v)%, 6 (w / v)%, 8 (w / v)%, 10 (w / v)%, 12 (w / v)%, 14 (w / v)%, 16 (w / v)%, 18 (w / v)%, and 20 (w / v)% NaCl to the crude oil medium (Na2MoO4 0.08 g / L, MgSO4 0.2 g / L, KH2PO4 1 g / L, (NH4)2HPO4 1 g / L, Xinjiang Oilfield crude oil 0.5 (w / v)%, pH 7.0) respectively, sterilize the medium at 121 °C for 20 min to obtain crude oil media with different salinities.

[0076] 2. Use an inoculation loop to activate the Halomonas sp. DH1 and Dietzia sp. DH3 preserved on the slant by streaking on a plate, and incubate at a constant temperature of 35 °C for 20 h. Pick three loops (each loop of the bacterial strain contains more than 3 distinct single colonies) of the bacterial strain and inoculate it into a 50 mL Erlenmeyer flask containing 30 mL of LB medium, and culture at 35 °C and 180 rpm for 8 h. Take 10 mL of the bacterial liquid, centrifuge it, collect the cells, wash them with sterile water and resuspend them, and adjust the OD 600 to approximately 1.000. Thus, a Halomonas sp. DH1 bacterial suspension and a Dietzia sp. DH3 bacterial suspension are obtained.

[0077] 3. Respectively inoculate "1 mL of Halomonas sp. DH1 bacterial suspension", "1 mL of Dietzia sp. DH3 bacterial suspension" or "mixed bacteria (0.5 mL of Halomonas sp. DH1 bacterial suspension + 0.5 mL of Dietzia sp. DH3 bacterial suspension)" into 100 mL of crude oil media with different salinities, place them in a constant temperature shaker, and culture at 35 °C and 150 rpm for 7 days. Take 1 mL of the culture solution, centrifuge to collect the cells, wash them 3 times with sterile water, resuspend them with 1 mL of sterile water, and measure its OD 600 value to investigate the effect of salinity on the growth of Halomonas sp. DH1 and Dietzia sp. DH3. And calculate the degradation rate of crude oil by the weighing method.

[0078] 4. Take the residual oil sample collected from the 10 (w / v)% salinity experimental group treated with the inoculated mixed bacteria and separate the four components of crude oil. The separation method of the four components of crude oil refers to the standard NB / SH / T 0509-2010, and perform GC-MS analysis on saturated hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbons. Use the crude oil medium before inoculating the bacterial strain for the same treatment as the blank control (before degradation). The GC-MS analysis is completed by the Geochemistry Laboratory of Yangtze University.

[0079] The growth conditions of different strains and the degradation conditions of crude oil in crude oil media with different salinities are shown in Table 1 and Table 2 respectively. Through GC-MS analysis of the saturated hydrocarbon components of the 10 (w / v)% salinity crude oil medium before and after degradation by Halomonas sp. DH1 and Dietzia sp. DH3, the total ion chromatogram obtained is as Figure 2 shown; through GC-MS analysis of the aromatic hydrocarbon components of the 10 (w / v)% salinity crude oil medium before and after degradation by Halomonas sp. DH1 and Dietzia sp. DH3, the total ion chromatogram obtained is as Figure 3 shown. The statistical results of the change data of the four components of crude oil are shown in Table 3.

[0080] Table 1

[0081] Note: "-" indicates that the growth of Dietzia sp. DH3 almost stops in the high salinity environment of 16%, 18%, and 20%.

[0082] Table 2

[0083] Table 3

[0084] As shown in Table 1 and Table 2, Halomonas sp. DH1 and Dietzia sp. DH3 can both adapt to the high salinity environment and tend to grow, reproduce and degrade crude oil in the environment with higher salinity. Halomonas sp. DH1 grows well in the salinity range of 0-20 (w / v)%, and its optimal growth salinity range is 2 (w / v)% - 14 (w / v)%. Dietzia sp. DH3 grows well in the salinity range of 0-14 (w / v)%, and its optimal growth salinity range is 2 (w / v)% - 8 (w / v)%. Halomonas sp. DH1 and Dietzia sp. DH3 can synergistically promote growth at high salinity and increase the degradation rate of crude oil; in the salinity environment of 2 (w / v)% - 12 (w / v)%, the degradation rate of crude oil by the composite bacteria reaches over 50%.

[0085] Collect the four components. The recovery rate of the blank control sample is 99.04%, and the recovery rate of the sample after degradation is 94.05%. As shown in Table 3, Figure 2 、 Figure 3As shown. After treatment with the composite bacteria, the saturated hydrocarbon content in the crude oil decreased from 77.10% to 66.73%, and the aromatic hydrocarbon content decreased from 10.87% to 6.88%. Combining with the overall degradation rate of the crude oil, the composite bacteria had a significant degradation effect on the saturated hydrocarbon and aromatic hydrocarbon components. From the GC-MS analysis results, after the combined degradation of Halomonas sp. DH1 and Dietzia sp. DH3, Pr / Ph decreased by 10.73%, indicating that the crude oil was degraded. The two parameters of Pr / nC17 and Ph / nC18 increased after the action, and the value of ∑nC21- / ∑nC22+ decreased from the original 0.976 to 0.772. Before and after degradation, the oil samples contained various aromatic hydrocarbon compounds such as naphthalene, phenanthrene, triaromatic steranes, fluorene, dibenzofuran, biphenyl, dibenzothiophene, and chrysene. Naphthalene, phenanthrene, and triaromatic steranes in the samples were the main components of aromatic hydrocarbons, and their contents accounted for more than 85% of the total aromatic hydrocarbons. Compared with the oil sample before degradation, after the degradation effect, the content change of naphthalene was more obvious, decreasing from 46.74% to 37.03%; among the tricyclic aromatic compounds, except for the content of dibenzofuran decreasing by 4.7%, the contents of dibenzothiophene and fluorene increased; the content of biphenyl compounds decreased by 33.9%, and the contents of aromatic compounds such as phenanthrene increased. This shows that the composite bacteria have a good degradation effect on naphthalene. Considering the relatively high overall degradation rate of the composite bacteria on petroleum hydrocarbons, although the relative contents of dibenzothiophene and fluorene increased slightly, the overall degradation effect on aromatic hydrocarbon compounds was still obvious, especially for aromatic hydrocarbon compounds such as naphthalene, biphenyl, and dibenzofuran. Halomonas sp. DH1 not only had a significant degradation effect on the saturated hydrocarbon components, but also had an obvious degradation effect on various aromatic hydrocarbon compounds such as naphthalene, phenanthrene, triaromatic steranes, fluorene, dibenzofuran, biphenyl, dibenzothiophene, and chrysene in the crude oil.

[0086] Test Example 2 1. On the basis of the inorganic salt medium (Na2MoO4 0.08 g / L, MgSO4 0.2 g / L, KH2PO4 1 g / L, (NH4)2HPO4 1 g / L, NaCl 100 g / L, pH 7.0), 300 mg / L of naphthalene, anthracene, phenanthrene, pyrene, C 16 , C 20 , C 24 , C 28 , C 32 were added respectively, and then the medium was sterilized at 121 °C for 20 min to obtain an inorganic salt medium containing different carbon sources to be tested.

[0087] 2. Inoculate Halomonas sp. DH1 and Dietzia sp. DH3 preserved on the slant with an inoculation loop for activation by streaking on a plate, and incubate at 35 °C for 20 h. Pick three loops of bacteria (each loop of bacteria contains more than 3 distinct single colonies) from the plate and transfer them into a 50 mL Erlenmeyer flask containing 30 mL of LB medium, and culture at 35 °C and 180 rpm for 8 h. Take 10 mL of the bacterial solution, centrifuge, collect the cells, wash with sterile water and resuspend, and adjust to OD 600 to approximately 1.000. Thus, a Halomonas sp. DH1 bacterial suspension and a Dietzia sp. DH3 bacterial suspension are obtained.

[0088] 3. Transfer 1 mL of the Halomonas sp. DH1 bacterial suspension into 100 mL of an inorganic salt medium containing different carbon sources to be tested, and incubate with constant shaking at 35 °C and 150 rpm for 7 days. Take 1 mL of the culture solution, centrifuge at 10000 rpm for 2 min, collect the cells, wash 3 times with sterile water, resuspend with 1 mL of sterile water, and measure its OD 600 value. Calculate the degradation rate by the weighing method.

[0089] The results are shown in Table 4.

[0090] Table 4

[0091] Halomonas sp. DH1 can grow using saturated hydrocarbons with different carbon chain lengths and various polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as the sole carbon source, and degrade various petroleum hydrocarbons, especially naphthalene, anthracene, C 16 -C 28 with good degradation effects.

[0092] Test Example 3 Dissolve 0.1 g of the crude DH1 surfactant prepared in Preparation Example 1 in 20 mL of water to obtain a crude DH1 surfactant solution. Mix 3 mL of the crude DH1 surfactant solution with kerosene, peanut oil, olive oil, liquid paraffin, crude oil, n-heptane, and toluene at a volume ratio of 1:1, shake and disperse thoroughly on a vortex oscillator for 2 min, then let stand for 2 h, observe the changes, take pictures, and evaluate the emulsifying performance of the biosurfactant at different concentrations on liquid paraffin.

[0093] The results are as Figure 3 shown.

[0094] After the crude solution of surfactant DH1 was mixed with oil phases such as kerosene respectively, the total volume of the liquid did not change significantly, the volume of the water layer decreased, and the water layer became turbid. Halomonas sp. DH1 can produce biosurfactant using crude oil as the sole carbon source. The biosurfactant it produced has a good emulsifying and dispersing effect on petroleum hydrocarbons, indicating that it can solubilize petroleum hydrocarbons in the environment and improve the fluidity of crude oil, and can be used for microbial enhanced oil recovery.

Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
