Cochin, commercial capital of Kerala, located on the west-coast of South India
has a large number of chemical and sea food industries. Earlier studies in the past
indicated that these industries contribute to heavy metal pollution, particularly mercury,
copper, and cadmium, in Cochin backwater. Hence, in the present study, it was desired
to isolate cadmium resistant bacteria from effluent discharged by chemical industry with
a view to develop an ideal bioremediation process for safe discharge of industrial
effluent in to the nearby aquatic environment.
Effluent from three industries, located in the industrial belt of Cochin, were
collected from the discharge point and cadmium resistant bacteria were screened using
standard microbiological techniques |
