DNA AnalysisDNA Analysis
• 16S rRNA genes are found in all organisms from bacteria to higher organisms.
• The 16S rRNA gene sequences differ between species.
• 16S rRNA sequences are available on databases to use for identification purposes.

Exopolysaccharide :
•Bacterial polymer excretion from Zoogloea, an aerobic slime forming bacteria.
•Anchors organisms.
•Protects cells from fuel.
•Helps dissolve fuel into an aqueous phase for consumption.
•Problem due to bulking.

DNA/PLFA Conclusions DNA/PLFA Conclusions
Zoogloea dominated community in above-ground treatment system.
No Zoolgoea in detected in subsurface/wells.
Bioemulsion representative of OWS environment, not subsurface environment.
Observed bioemulsion is a microbial excretion: Complex carbohydrates or “Exopolysaccharide ”.

Controlling BioemulsionsControlling Bioemulsions1. In 1999, installed a 12,000-gallon LET and 2 bag
filters (in parallel) to increase residence time and collect bioemulsions. Low shear progressive cavity pumps also installed in system.
2. In 2003, added “fuel clarifier” to recovered fuel tank to break apart accumulated bioemulsions within recovered fuel.
3. In December 2003 to March 2004, tested cationic coagulant.
4. Recommend running coagulant inject permanently.

ResultsResults
Able to meet sewer discharge requirements for treated groundwater using LET and bag filters.
Able to eliminate bioemulsion pumping and sludge problems in the fuel recovery tank since January 2003 using fuel clarifier additive.
Total fluids additive show strong reductions in bioemulsion accumulations in LET and OWS and a higher degree of oil/water separation.
