Abstract:
The use of sponges for marine bioremediation in a farming scenario has been investigated focusing on Chondrilla nucula. We
report experiments examining clearance and retention rates of the bacterium Escherichia coli . Despite low values expressed for
clearance tests, C. nucula exhibited a marked ability to retain high quantities of bacteria. One square meter patch of this sponge can
filter up to 14 l/h of sea water retaining up to 7/1010 bacterial cells/h. This suggests that C. nucula is a suitable species for marine
environmental bioremediation
