APLICACIÓN  APPLICATION
CAMPO DE APLICACIÓN SCOPE
La presente invención en términos generales, divulga un método para suprimir el polvo en suspensión proveniente de material particulado, especialmente de relaves, y composiciones biológicas, que comprenden mezclas de cianobacterias y microalgas obtenidas de depósitos bajo los números KCTC13158BP y KCTC13159BP.  The present invention, in general terms, discloses a method for suppressing suspended dust from particulate material, especially tailings, and biological compositions, comprising mixtures of cyanobacteria and microalgae obtained from deposits under the numbers KCTC13158BP and KCTC13159BP.
ANTECENTES DE LA INVENCIÓN BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Es conocido en el estado del arte que las actividades industriales, de transporte, y fuentes naturales como la erosión eólica conllevan a la emisión de material particulado desde la superficie de depósitos mineros; lo anterior constituye un problema medioambiental pues este material particulado puede portar elementos tóxicos y peligrosos, como es el caso de los relaves mineros. Estos sustratos corresponden a una suspensión fina de sólidos en líquido, constituidos fundamentalmente por el mismo material presente en el yacimiento, al cual se le ha extraído la fracción con mineral valioso. Estos relaves están conformados principalmente por partículas de tamaño menor o igual a 10 micrones, con un alto y variado contenido mineralógico. Al ser dispersadas por el viento, estas partículas afectan el medio ambiente, generando un alto impacto ambiental. It is known in the state of the art that industrial activities, transportation, and natural sources such as wind erosion lead to the emission of particulate material from the surface of mining deposits; This constitutes an environmental problem because this particulate material can carry toxic and dangerous elements, such as mining tailings. These substrates correspond to a fine suspension of solids in liquid, consisting essentially of the same material present in the reservoir, to which the fraction with valuable mineral has been extracted. These tailings are mainly made up of particles smaller than or equal to 10 microns, with a high and varied mineralogical content. When dispersed by the wind, these particles affect the environment, generating a high environmental impact.
En el estado del arte encontramos distintas estrategias para controlar el material particulado de distinto origen, que de una u otra manera emplean elementos de origen biológico, sin embargo, requieren de múltiples aplicaciones, por lo tanto no logran proporcionar soluciones definitivas, aumentando los costos de mantenimiento.  In the state of the art we find different strategies to control the particulate material of different origin, which in one way or another use elements of biological origin, however, they require multiple applications, therefore they fail to provide definitive solutions, increasing the costs of maintenance.
Por ejemplo, el documento US 2013/0196419 describe una composición para disminuir el material particulado suspendido en aire o en un líquido que comprende una fuente de exopolisacáridos seleccionados de cepas de microorganismos productoras de limo, un microorganismo con actividad ureolítica y un medio de cultivo, donde los microorganismos productores de limo son seleccionados de microalgas y el microorganismo con actividad ureolítica es un cultivo de Bacillus pasteurii. La solicitud CL 0241 -2012 del mismo solicitante, describe un método para disminuir el material particulado en suspensión en aire o agua que comprende aglomerar el material particulado suspendido en aire o agua con exopolisacáridos (EPS) de carga negativa, donde el microorganismo que produce el EPS de carga negativa es una bacteria o una microalga.  For example, US 2013/0196419 describes a composition for reducing particulate matter suspended in air or in a liquid comprising a source of exopolysaccharides selected from strains of slime-producing microorganisms, a microorganism with ureolytic activity and a culture medium, where the silt producing microorganisms are selected from microalgae and the microorganism with ureolytic activity is a culture of Bacillus pasteurii. The application CL 0241 -2012 of the same applicant describes a method for reducing the particulate material suspended in air or water comprising agglomerating the particulate material suspended in air or water with negative charge exopolysaccharides (EPS), where the microorganism that produces the Negative charge EPS is a bacterium or a microalgae.
Respecto a las cianobacterias, existen documentos que describen la capacidad o la relación de estas con la remoción de contaminantes, tanto metálicos como orgánicos.  Regarding cyanobacteria, there are documents that describe their capacity or relationship with the removal of contaminants, both metallic and organic.
El documento no patente "Exopolysaccharide-producing cyanobacteria in heavy metal removal from water: molecular basis and practical applicability of the biosorption process", redactado por R. Philippis, G. Cólica, y E. Micheletti, describe que los microorganismos, específicamente los exopolisacáridos (EPS) de la superficie celular de cianobacterias, son capaces de remover metales desde ambientes contaminados a través de diversos mecanismos, tales como procesos mediados metabólicamente o por la adsorción de metales en macromoléculas con carga iónica de la superficie celular. En esta misma línea, el documento "Characterization and Optimization of Bioflocculant Exopolysaccharide Production by Cyanobacteria Nostoc sp. BTA97 and Anabaena sp. BTA990 in Culture Conditions" redactado por O. Tiwari y cois., describe experimentos donde se demostró la producción de exopolisacáridos (EPS) de 40 cepas de cianobacterias como biofloculantes para absorber o remover contaminantes orgánicos, y como alternativa de diversas aplicaciones biotecnológicas en el medio ambiente. Al igual que el documento anterior, la publicación científica titulada "Production of exopolysaccharides by the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. BTA992 and application as bioflocculants" , redactada por R. Khangembam, O. Tiwari y M. Kalita, describe el efecto de los exopolisacáridos (EPS) de 10 cepas de cianobacterias durante su cultivo fotoautotrófico. Los resultados demostraron que cianobacterias seleccionadas de Anabaena sp., pueden ser un buen candidato para la producción comercial de EPS y pueden ser utilizadas en aplicaciones como alternativa a floculantes sintéticos. The non-patent document "Exopolysaccharide-producing cyanobacteria in heavy metal removal from water: molecular basis and practical applicability of the biosorption process", written by R. Philippis, G. Cólica, and E. Micheletti, describes that microorganisms, specifically exopolysaccharides (EPS) of the Cyanobacterial cell surface, are capable of removing metals from contaminated environments through various mechanisms, such as metabolically mediated processes or by adsorption of metals in macromolecules with ionic charge of the cell surface. Along the same lines, the document "Characterization and Optimization of Bioflocculant Exopolysaccharide Production by Cyanobacteria Nostoc sp. BTA97 and Anabaena sp. BTA990 in Culture Conditions" drafted by O. Tiwari and cois., Describes experiments where the production of exopolysaccharides (EPS) was demonstrated ) of 40 strains of cyanobacteria as biofloculants to absorb or remove organic pollutants, and as an alternative to various biotechnological applications in the environment. Like the previous document, the scientific publication entitled "Production of exopolysaccharides by the cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. BTA992 and application as bioflocculants", written by R. Khangembam, O. Tiwari and M. Kalita, describes the effect of exopolysaccharides (EPS ) of 10 strains of cyanobacteria during photoautotrophic culture. The results showed that selected cyanobacteria of Anabaena sp., Can be a good candidate for commercial production of EPS and can be used in applications as an alternative to synthetic flocculants.
Todos los documentos citados utilizan exopolisacáridos como bio-floculantes y son aplicados para la remoción de metales pesados en líquidos contaminados, pero ninguno de ellos viene a solucionar el problema técnico de suprimir el polvo en suspensión generado por erosión eólica, proveniente de material particulado de relaves. Ante esta problemática, la presente invención proporciona la aplicación de una novedosa composición biológica que comprende mezclas de cianobacterias y microalgas. Esta invención tiene la ventaja de estabilizar el polvo en suspensión proveniente del matenal particulado de relaves, lo que minimiza la infiltración de agua y la erosión causada por el viento en relaves mineros. All the documents cited use exopolysaccharides as bio-flocculants and are applied for the removal of heavy metals in contaminated liquids, but none of them come to solve the technical problem of suppressing the suspended dust generated by wind erosion, from particulate tailings material . Faced with this problem, the present invention provides the application of a novel biological composition comprising mixtures of cyanobacteria and microalgae This invention has the advantage of stabilizing the dust in suspension from the particulate tailings malt, which minimizes water infiltration and wind erosion in mining tailings.

1 . Las muestras iniciales fueron obtenidas desde suelo de la IV Región de Coquimbo ubicada en la zona sem ¡-árida del oeste de Sudamérica, al sur del gran desierto de Atacama (29°00'S; 32°10'S). En 6 sectores distintos dentro de la Cuarta Región de Coquimbo fueron extraídas 34 muestras de suelo. Los sitios de muestreo fueron escogidos en base al color y textura aparente. Para la extracción de muestras, se removió con cuidado la primera capa de suelo (1 cm de profundidad aprox.) recolectando entre 8 a 15 g de suelo, que se almacenó en tubos Falcon estériles. Una vez colectadas todas las muestras estas fueron conservadas a 4°C.  one . The initial samples were obtained from the soil of the IV Region of Coquimbo located in the semi-arid zone of western South America, south of the great Atacama Desert (29 ° 00'S; 32 ° 10'S). In 6 different sectors within the Fourth Region of Coquimbo, 34 soil samples were extracted. Sampling sites were chosen based on color and apparent texture. For the extraction of samples, the first layer of soil (approximately 1 cm deep) was carefully removed, collecting 8 to 15 g of soil, which was stored in sterile Falcon tubes. Once all samples were collected, they were stored at 4 ° C.
2. Paralelamente, para el aislamiento de los microorganismos, se tomó 1 gramo aproximado de cada muestra de suelo y se le agregaron 10 mL de medio de cultivo estéril (BG1 1 o MDM) en tubos Falcon de 15 mL estériles, o con cantidades menores respetando la proporción 1/10, esto es, por cada gramo de suelo se adicionaron 10 mL de medio. Posteriormente se agitó en un agitador orbital por 30 min a 34°C, se esperó a que decantara el material particulado y se sacó una alícuota de 100 μί, la cual se sembró en ambiente estéril con rastrillo en medio BG1 1 sólido cubriendo toda la placa, se etiquetó cada placa con la información de la muestra, el volumen de inoculo y la fecha. Los tubos con medio líquido con proporción 1/10 y las placas sembradas se incubaron en una cámara de cultivo, la cual disponía de un fotoperiodo de 12 h luz-12 h oscuridad, a una temperatura de 28°C. Los cultivos líquidos se dejaron en la cámara de cultivo hasta que se observaron filamentos verdes oscuros o manchas de color verde claro. Se realizó un análisis por microscopía óptica, en un microscopio Zeiss Axiostarplus® a 100X con un aumento del ocular del 10X, para confirmar la presencia de microorganismos y se traspasó una porción a medio BG1 1 líquido estéril.

In parallel, for the isolation of microorganisms, approximately 1 gram of each soil sample was taken and 10 mL of sterile culture medium (BG1 1 or MDM) was added in sterile 15 mL Falcon tubes, or with smaller amounts respecting the 1/10 ratio, that is, for each gram of soil, 10 mL of medium was added. Subsequently, it was stirred on an orbital shaker for 30 min at 34 ° C, the particulate was expected to decant and a 100 μί aliquot was removed, which was seeded in a sterile environment with a rake in solid BG1 1 medium covering the entire plate , each plate was labeled with the sample information, the inoculum volume and the date. The tubes with liquid medium with a ratio of 1/10 and the seeded plates were incubated in a culture chamber, which had a photoperiod of 12 h light-12 h darkness, at a temperature of 28 ° C. Liquid cultures were left in the culture chamber until dark green filaments or light green spots were observed. An analysis was performed by Optical microscopy, in a Zeiss Axiostarplus® 100X microscope with a 10X magnification of the eyepiece, to confirm the presence of microorganisms and a portion was transferred to sterile liquid BG1 1 medium. In the case of the plates in solid medium with evident growth of pigmented colonies, an analysis by optical microscopy was carried out and seeded in plates of solid BG1 for the separation of colonies, as well as inoculated in liquid medium to obtain biomass .
3. Las muestras se identificaron mediante obtención del ADN genómico para lo cual se tomaron 200 μί del cultivo, cuidando que se obtuvieran filamentos en la recolección; para el caso de los microorganismos más compactos se sacaron del medio de cultivo y se obtuvo una porción cuidadosamente removida con un bisturí de forma estéril. Para cultivos en medio sólido, se cortaron secciones con un bisturí de forma estéril. Todas las muestras se introdujeron en los tubos de recolección respectivos y de ser necesario, se enrasaron hasta 200 μί con agua estéril. Para la extracción de DNA genómico se utilizó el kit FavorPrep, Soil DNA isolation minikit de Favorgen Biotech corp®. Se cuantificó ADN y se realizó amplificación de fragmentos de ADN para determinar la presencia de microorganismos en las muestras. 25 μί de productos de PCR de la amplificación de cada muestra, fueron enviados a la empresa Macrogen para su secuenciación. Una vez obtenidos los resultados de la secuenciación se procesó cada secuencia con el software Geneious en relación a la presencia de los primers y la calidad de la secuenciación entregados por los electroferogramas de la secuenciación realizada. Luego se realizó un alineamiento de cada secuencia con la herramienta BLASTn dirigido a cada género de microorganismo. Posteriormente se analizó la lista de resultados significativos obtenidos y los resultados del árbol de distancia entregados por la misma herramienta, identificando el género más probable al que podría pertenecer el microorganismo. Estos análisis indicaron que los microorganismos que se encontraban presentes en las muestras extraídas de costras de suelo correspondían a cianobacterias, específicamente a las especies cianobacteriales Leptolyngbya badia, Trichocoleus sociatus, Trichocoleus desertorum Leptolyngbya boryana, Leptolyngbya sp.

Para obtener los cultivos que se usaron en el análisis de estabilidad, se realizó una inoculación al 10% v/v desde del cultivo criopreservado de las especie de cianobaterias y microalgas aisladas, y las muestras fueron crecidas durante dos semanas en medio nutritivo conteniendo una proporción de N:P:K y elementos traza: Ca, Fe, Mg, Mn y S. Las condiciones de crecimiento correspondieron a 3.000 lux proveniente de luz fluorescente (40,5 pmol m-2 s-1 ), agitación orbital con velocidad constante a 120 rpm, ciclo lumínico de 14/12 horas, humedad entre 40% y 60%. 3. The samples were identified by obtaining genomic DNA for which 200 μί of the culture was taken, taking care that filaments were obtained in the collection; in the case of the most compact microorganisms, they were removed from the culture medium and a carefully removed portion was obtained with a sterile scalpel. For cultures in solid medium, sections were cut with a sterile scalpel. All samples were introduced into the respective collection tubes and, if necessary, flush up to 200 μί with sterile water. For the extraction of genomic DNA, the FavorPrep kit, Soil DNA isolation minikit from Favorgen Biotech corp® was used. DNA was quantified and amplification of DNA fragments was performed to determine the presence of microorganisms in the samples. 25 μί of PCR products amplifying each sample were sent to the company Macrogen for sequencing. Once the results of the sequencing were obtained, each sequence was processed with the Geneious software in relation to the presence of the primers and the quality of the sequencing delivered by the electropherograms of the sequencing performed. An alignment of each sequence was then performed with the BLASTn tool aimed at each genre of microorganism. Subsequently, the list of significant results obtained and the results of the distance tree delivered by the same tool were analyzed, identifying the most probable genus to which the microorganism could belong. These analyzes indicated that the microorganisms that were present in the samples extracted from soil scabs corresponded to cyanobacteria, specifically the cyanobacterial species Leptolyngbya badia, Trichocoleus sociatus, Trichocoleus desertorum Leptolyngbya boryana, Leptolyngbya sp. In addition, the presence of the Chlorella microalgae genus was identified. 4. To obtain the cultures that were used in the stability analysis, a 10% v / v inoculation was made from the cryopreserved culture of the isolated cyanobacterial and microalgae species, and the samples were grown for two weeks in nutrient medium containing a proportion of N: P: K and trace elements: Ca, Fe, Mg, Mn and S. The growth conditions corresponded to 3,000 lux from fluorescent light (40.5 pmol m-2 s-1), orbital agitation with constant speed at 120 rpm, light cycle of 14/12 hours, humidity between 40% and 60%.

b) Installation of the specimen and execution of the test: The specimen was installed on the adjustable plane support of the wind tunnel; the inclination for this series of tests was between 9 ° and 10 ° with respect to the horizontal. Once the specimen was installed in the support, the test was started by applying wind at a speed of 12 m / s, considering an exposure time of six continuous hours. For each test, the initial weight and humidity of each specimen was taken, and after the end of the test, the remaining material in the mold was weighed and the final humidity was measured. Each of the tests performed was registered. photographically. In the case of untreated specimens, one shot was taken every 5 minutes. In the case of the treated specimens, shots were taken every 5 minutes to complete 20 minutes, then at 60 exposure and then every hour until six hours of testing were completed. Figures 1 -3 show a photographic record of the typical performance of the specimens without treatment (Figure 1), treatment with the mitigating agent Ph1 (Figure 2), and treatment with the mixture 1 (Figure 3), at different times during the realization of the tests subjected to the wind effect in the wind tunnel. For the test with mixture 2, we do not provide photographs. Results obtained from wind tunnel tests: Twelve test pieces were performed, according to the Chilean norm of tailings deposits NCh 3266 - 2012, of which three were not treated, three were treated with Ph1, three were treated with the mixture 1 and three others were treated with mixture 2. The weights and percentages of tailings loss due to wind effect recorded in the tests performed, are presented in table No. 7 and in figures 4 (Without treatment), 5 (Treatment with Ph1), 6 (Treatment with mixture 1) and 7 (Treatment with mixture 2). It is important to note that in the case of untreated specimens, the loss of material was reached after 20 minutes, as shown in Figures 1 and 4. In the case of specimens treated with Ph1, the loss of material is recorded after three and six hours of exposure of the specimen to the action of the wind, as can be seen in figures 2 and 5. In the specimens treated with mixture 1, no loss of particulate material was recorded, as can be appreciate in figures 3 and 6. This result was also observed when treating the particulate material coming from tailings with the mixture 2, as can be seen in figure 7.
