The present study, details about a halophilic bacterial consortium enriched from water and sediment samples from Red sea, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia analyzed for PAHs degradation potential under saline condition (40 g/L NaCl concentration). The bacterial consortium was able to growth in halophilic mineral salt medium with PAHs (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) as sole carbon source. Different types of selected LMW (Low Mol. Weight) PAHs such as phenathrene (PHN) and fluorine (FLU) at different concentrations (25, 50, 100, 200, 500 ppm) and pyrene (PY) from HMW(High Mol. Weight) PAH at 50 and 100 ppm concentrations was used in the study under saline condition. The results recorded 90% degradation of phenanthrene and fluoreneupto 500 ppm. HMW pyrene revealed 79% and 69% degradation at 50 ppm and 100 ppm concentration under saline condition by the halophilic consortium. Addition of FLU (100 ppm) along with the PY (50 ppm) recorded 85% of PY degradation in 8 days and 98% degradation in 12 days. Addition of yeast extract during PY degradation recorded complete degradation of PY (50 ppm) in 12 days. Lab Scale reactor study with CSTR (continuous stirred tank reactor) used to investigate the PAHs degradation and petroleum refinery wastewater treatment efficiency of in thehalophilic bacterial consortium. The results recorded 95% COD removal in 32 days with complete degradation of LMW PAHs in 12 days under saline condition. Bacterial strains in the consortium were identified by using mol. techniques such as DNA isolation and next generation sequencing.
