This document summarizes a study that isolated and characterized a bacterium called Stenotrophomonas maltophilia SRS05 from tannery effluent that is able to remediate hexavalent chromium pollution. S. maltophilia SRS05 was able to reduce chromium levels in the effluent after 15 days of incubation. Testing revealed this bacterium was resistant to high levels of chromium and able to uptake chromium from solutions. The study concluded S. maltophilia SRS05 shows promise for bioremediating chromium pollution in industrial wastewater.
