Sažetak
Environmentally friendly technologies based on the use of microorganisms have become an increasingly accepted method for the effective removal of pollutants from water systems. In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of research papers on the use of effective methods to clean and reduce pollution in water bodies. In this context, much attention has been paid to the use of bioremediation processes. Bioremediation with microorganisms has great potential for future development due to its ecological compatibility and possible cost-effectiveness. A variety of microorganisms play a crucial role in the treatment and recovery of wastewater, making it less harmful to the environment. These microorganisms can be used as a promising green technology for wastewater treatment. In return, the microorganisms receive the energy for their growth and reproduction. In this work, bioremediation of highly contaminated leachate from biowaste was carried out at ambient temperature under submerged conditions. By determining the substrate concentration, biomass and dissolved oxygen as well as pH in biowaste leachate, an insight into the process of biodegradation of the contaminants present is gained. A kinetic analysis was carried out and certain mathematical models were applied. During the experiment, a microbiological analysis of the indigenous cultures present, which are responsible for the biodegradation of the pollutants present, was carried out.
