Abstract
The present study emphasizes degradation of cyanide under aerobic condition using microbial consortia isolated from wastewater of sago industries. The consortium contains species of Bacillus,Klebsiella and Pseudomonas. More than 98% of cyanide was removed as ammonia within 96 hours at pH range of 7.0-8.0 by the chosen microbial consortia. However, the individual species displayed only 50-75% cyanide degradation. The higher percentage of cyanide removal observed with the consortium than individual organism suggested the existence of synergism in the consortium.
