摘要

The extensive use of uranium resources has increased radionuclide wastes, necessitating efficient, economical, and environmentally remediation strategies. Here, a biosurfactant-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain was isolated from soil. Optimal fermentation conditions were 35 °C, pH7.0, 2% glycerol, and 0.1% ammonium nitrate, yielding 0.24 g L−1 biosurfactant. The product remained stable at extreme environments; Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) identified it as rhamnolipid. In 10 mg L−1 uranium removal assays, biosurfactant plus cells achieved 90.16% uranium removal at 120 min, outperforming single treatments.
