Bioremediation of
1,4-dioxane is strongly challenged by the concurrent
contamination of chlorinated solvents, particularly 1,1-dichloroethylene
(1,1-DCE), a potent inhibitor of archetypic 1,4-dioxane degraders
(e.g., Pseudonocardia and Mycobacterium). Vegetative growth and aggregation behavior of these Gram-positive
Actinomycetes also hinder their field application. A new Gram-negative
bacterium Azoarcus sp. DD4 was isolated from an activated
sludge sample. Notably, DD4 can sustain the concurrent co-oxidation
of 1,4-dioxane and 1,1-DCE using propane as the primary substrate
without observable formation of clumps. Microcosm assays prepared
with source zone groundwater samples from a contaminated site indicated
DD4 can efficiently remove dioxane, with the concentration decreasing
from an initial value of 10.4 mg/L to <0.4 μg/L within 14
days of incubation. Removal of 1,4-dioxane was partially inhibited
when an excessive amount of 1,1-DCE (3.28 ± 0.19 mg/L) was artificially
spiked into the microcosms but significantly accelerated immediately
after the complete depletion of 1,1-DCE. Furthermore, a gene encoding
a putative propane monooxygenase was discovered, which may contribute
to the oxidation of propane, 1,4-dioxane, and/or 1,1-DCE. Detection
of 2-S-glutathionyl acetate and synchronic dechlorination
suggest that DD4 detoxifies its primary metabolite, 1,1-DCE epoxide,
via conjugation with glutathione. All these findings indicate the
suitability of DD4 as a robust inoculum candidate for in situ bioaugmentation to remediate co-contamination by dioxane and 1,1-DCE.
