Phenol and its derivatives are hazardous pollutants that are highly toxic even at low
concentrations. The management of wastewater containing high concentrations of phenols …

Sulfamethoxazole is a common antibiotic that is frequently detected in wastewater and
surface water. This study investigated the biodegradation and metabolic pathway of …

Biodegradation of phenol by a mixed microbial culture, isolated from a sewage treatment
plant, was investigated in batch shake flasks. A minimum concentration of 100 and a …

Biodegradation of phenol and m-cresol using a pure culture of Candida tropicalis was
studied. The results showed that C. tropicalis could degrade 2000mgl− 1 phenol alone and …

Strain Alcaligenes faecalis was isolated and identified as a member of the genus
Alcaligenes by using BIOLOG and 16S rDNA sequence analysis. The phenol …

Hydrogen is considered to be a promising future fuel for the transportation sector due to its
zero carbon emissions and high energy capacity by mass. Nevertheless, an energy-saving …

A new indigenous soil bacterium Pseudomonas sp. growing on phenol and on a mixture of
phenol, toluene, o-cresol, naphthalene and 1, 2, 3-trimethylbenzene (1, 2, 3-TMB) was …

Pesticides are normally used to control specific pests and to increase the productivity in
crops; as a result, soils are contaminated with mixtures of pesticides. In this work, the ability …

Effects of operation parameters on hydrogen production rate, substrate utilization efficiency
and hydrogen bioconversion yield were investigated in a photobioreactor packed with …

This study was aimed to investigate the efficiency of phenol degradation by Pseudomonas
putida entrapped within the beads prepared by chitosan crosslinked with sodium …
