Clustering, morphology, and treatment resistance of Bacillus globigii spores recovered from a pilot-scale activated sludge system
Published by Elsevier Ltd..
This study examines the organization and morphology of Bacillus globigii (BG) spores, a common surrogate for Bacillus anthracis, which were seeded and then recovered at various times from several points within a conventional, pilot-scale activated sludge system. Recovered BG spores were enumerated, microscopically examined, and tested for resistance to chemical (i.e. 5% H2O2 for 8 min), thermal (80 °C for 30 min), and ultraviolet light (8 W, 254 nm UV for 1 min) inactivation. Spores exposed to activated sludge germinated, sporulated, and exhibited unique multilayer clustering patterns and statistically significant changes (p < 0.005) in dimensional morphology. Spores collected in the later experimental stages (i.e., during weeks 6 and 7) were significantly more resistant (p ≤ 0.05) to inactivation than those collected on the first day of testing. These results have direct consequences for sludge treatment requirements at wastewater treatment plants that receive spore-containing waste streams.
