The invention belongs to the technical field of
environmental protection, and relates to screening,
domestication and application of focused
polyacrylamide (PAM) for efficiently degrading fungi. The strain (# 12) is preserved in CGMCC (China General
Microbiological Culture Collection Center) and is
trichoderma asperellum, and the similarity between the ITS sequence of the strain and the
gene reaches 99%. Aiming at soil hardening and
acrylamide pollution caused by difficult degradation of non-ionic PAM in
bauxite slime, the inventor adopts a gradient concentration screening and multi-stage
domestication process. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out
enrichment culture on
slurry containing PAM, carrying out gradient screening in a basic solution with a specific concentration, separating and purifying to obtain an optimal strain, and carrying out continuous passage
domestication through a six-stage culture medium, so that the degradation rate is increased by 23.45%. Under optimized conditions, the PAM degradation rate of the strain reaches 64.18%, the
viscosity is reduced by 88.03%, degradation is achieved through physical destruction and
enzymatic hydrolysis, and no
acrylamide monomer is detected. The strain has activity at the temperature of 25-45 DEG C and the pH value of 4-8, is suitable for
bioremediation of PAM-containing slime, alleviation of soil hardening and
elimination of risks of toxic and side products, reveals the efficient degradation characteristic of
trichoderma fungi to nonionic PAM for the first time, and assists in recycling of mining wastes.
