Abstract

Effect of culture conditions on biodegradation of oil shale by Phanerochaete chrysosporium was studied. XRD and FT-IR were used to analyze oil shale before and after nitric acid pretreatment, degradation residues, and degradation products. The results showed that 15 d of degradation time, high carbon-nitrogen ratio of culture medium, and 32ºC of degradation temperature were conductive to increasing the degradation rate of oil shale. XRD analysis indicated that silicate components of oil shale pretreated with nitric acid could be partially degraded by P. chrysosporium. FT-IR analysis showed that most of degradation products were aromatic hydrocarbons and a small amount of aliphatic hydrocarbons.
