Abstract:

The purpose of this research is to construct a compound microbial agent to degrade corncobs, use biomass energy efficiently and decrease environmental pollution. In this study, cow dung and the fermented substrate of cow dung mixed with corncob were used as tested materials. The cellulose-degrading bacteria were screened through Congo red staining and filter paper enzyme activity (FPA), and the strains were identified. The obtained strains were subjected to antagonism analysis by the streaking method. Finally, the strains were compounded and inoculated into the corncob to study the fermentation effect. The results showed that the enzyme activities of strains BC-2W, BC-2Y, BC-7W, BC-7Y, BC-12Y, BC-15W, BC-15Y, B1-2, B1-11, B2-7, B2-8 and B2-9 obtained from both kinds of fermentation substrates were all higher than 9.0 U/mL, and the cellulose degradation rate of corncob inoculated with compound microbial agent reached (55.63 ±2.21)%, which was higher than that of corncob inoculated with cow dung. Infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscope results showed that the degradation degree of lignocellulose in corncob inoculated with compound microbial agent was higher than that of cow dung group. The compound microbial agent could degrade corncob effectively, and it had great application prospect in cellulose degradation and utilization of biological resources of corncob.
