Crude oil contaminant is one of the major problem to environment and its removal process considered as most challenging tool currently across the world. In this degradation study, crude oil hydrocarbons are degraded on various pH optimization conditions (pH 2, 4,6,7,8 and 10) by using two biosurfactant producing bacterial strains Pseudomonas aeruginosa PP3 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa PP4. During crude oil biodegradation, degradative enzymes alkane hydroxylase and alcohol dehydrogenase were examined and found to be higher in PP4 than PP3. Biodegradation efficiency (BE) of crude oil by both PP3 and PP4 were analysed by gas chromatography mass spectroscopy (GCMS). Based on strain PP3, the highest BE was observed in pH 2 and pH 4 were found to be 62% and 69% than pH 6, 7, 8 and 10 (47%, 47%, 49% and 45%). It reveals that PP3 was survived effectively in acidic condition and utilized the crude oil hydrocarbons. In contrast, the highest BE of PP4 was observed in pH 7 (78%) than pH4 (68%) and pH's 2, 6, 8 and 10 (52%, 52%, 43% and 53%) respectively. FTIR spectra results revealed that the presence of different functional group of hydrocarbons (OH, –CH₃, CO, C–H) in crude oil. GCMS results confirmed that both strains PP3 and PP4 were survived in acidic condition and utilized the crude oil hydrocarbons as sole carbon sources. This is the first observation on biodegradation of crude oil by the novel strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in acidic condition with higher BE. Overall, the extracellular enzymes and surface active compounds (biosurfactant) produced by bacterial strains were played a key role in crude oil biodegradation process.
