AGUDELO, EDISON ALEXANDER; SUAREZ GARCIA, EDGAR; ECHAVARRIA, ANA MARÍA e CARDONA GALLO, SANTIAGO. METABOLIC SIMULATION OF BIODEGRADATION OF DIELECTRICS OILS USING EXPERT SYSTEMS. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2011, vol.78, n.165, pp.160-168. ISSN 0012-7353.
Rapid industrialization and accelerated production of new synthetic compounds led Governments and entities control to strictly regulate dumping of industrial effluents. However, with dozens of new compounds generated each year, is impossible to establish protocols for industry and estimate its direct impact on ecosystems before its production in industry. Prediction of metabolic systems allow preliminary estimate the possible transformations that a complex compound may suffer as a result of their interaction with ecosystems, giving an indication of the biological treatment facility and your risk for the health of the environment. This work presents the biodegradation of three reference compounds in Fuller land contaminated with Dielectric, oils with the aim of estimating their biodegradability and possible toxic intermediates generation simulation. Its major transformations, as well as enzymes involved and possible microorganisms that promote these transformations were identified for each compound. It was found that contaminants can be biodegraded completely and that are not generated toxic intermediates of importance, which confirms the feasibility of the biological treatment for dielectric oils.
