    Staphylococcus spacie, a gram-positive bacteria isolated from engine oil contaminated soil, was found to have a high percentage removal capacity of heavy metals that are environmental pollutants released from textile industries. Through experimentation over 72 hours under varying temperatures and iron concentrations, the bacteria demonstrated an 89.78% removal capacity of iron at a concentration of 100gm/l, showing potential for biological treatment of heavy metal pollution from industrial effluents.

    ABSTRACT

    Environmental Pollution is one of the major challenges faced by global society, due to rapid growth in
    industrialization and advancement.Tannery effluents emanated from textile industries contain various
    organic chemicals, such as dye stuffs, chrome dyes and other chemicals during various productions that
    can lead to large liquid waste discharge containing heavy metals. For biological treatment of these heavy
    metals as environmental pollutants, Iron resistance bacteria was isolated and identified from engine oil
    contaminated soil. The effect of temperature and various concentrations of iron on percentage removal
    capacity of the bacteria were also investigated under varying conditions for a period of 72hrs. The
    bacteria isolated from the soil were identified as Staphylococcus spacie (a gram positive bacteria) by
    different biochemical tests and microscopic identification (gram staining). The highest percentage
    removal capacity of the bacteria was recorded as 89.78 % at100gm/l of iron solution. This work reveals
    that Staphylococcus spacie can have capacity to resist lead.
