Biodegradation of Chlorobenzene and Nitrobenzene at Interfaces between Sediment and Water
Kurt, Zöhre; Spain, Jim C. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2012-11-06)
Plumes of contaminated groundwater often pass through an oxic/anoxic interface when they discharge into surface water bodies. We tested the hypothesis that contaminants recalcitrant under anaerobic conditions but degradable under aerobic conditions can be biodegraded at the interface resulting in the protection of the overlying water. Flow-through columns containing sediment and water were used to evaluate degradation of synthetic organic compounds at the thin organic layer at the sediment/water interface. ...
Biodegradation of BTEX compounds by a mixed culture obtained from petroleum formation water
Babaarslan, C; Abuhamed, T; Mehmetoglu, U; Tekeli, A; Mehmetoglu, T (Informa UK Limited, 2003-07-01)
The biodegradation of BTEX compounds (benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, and o,m, p-xylenes) by a mixed culture obtained from the formation of water, produced from the petroleum wells of the Turkish Petroleum Corporation (TPAO) in the Adiyaman region (southeast Turkey), and the effect of biomass concentration on the biodegradation rate of BTEX compounds, both alone and as a mixture, were investigated. The mixed culture, identified as Pseudomanas stutzeri and Vibrio mimicus, was grown on a brain heart infusion...
Biodegradation of 4-CP and 2,4-DCP mixture in a rotating biological contactor (RBC)
şahinkaya, Erkan; Dilek, Filiz Bengü (Elsevier BV, 2006-09-01)
In this study, the performance of a two stage rotating biological contactor (RBC) was evaluated for the treatment of synthetic wastewater containing peptone, 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) and 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) at 5 rpm. Also, the effect of biogenic substrate (peptone) concentration on the reactor performance was investigated. High chlorophenols (> 98%) and COD (> 94%) removals were achieved throughout the reactor operation in the first stage and the second stage behaved as a polishing step. The observed ...
Biodegradation kinetics of 2,4-dichlorophenol by acclimated mixed cultures
ŞAHİNKAYA, Erkan; Dilek, Filiz Bengü (Elsevier BV, 2007-01-20)
The biodegradation kinetics of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) by culture (Culture M) acclimated to mixture of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) and 2,4-DCP and the culture (Culture 4) acclimated to 4-CP only were investigated in aerobic batch reactors. Also, pure strains isolated from mixed cultures were searched for their ability towards the biodegradation of 2,4-DCR Culture 4 was able to completely degrade 2,4-DCP up to 80 mg/L within 30 h and removal efficiency dropped to 21% upon increasing initial concentration to 1...
Biodegradation of aldicarb in a packed-bed reactor by immobilized Methylosinus
Kok, FN; Arica, MY; Halicigil, C; Alaeddinoglu, G; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat (1999-04-01)
Carboxymethylcellulose microspheres cross-linked via aluminum ions were used as a support material for immobilization of Methylosinus isolated from soil contaminated with aldicarb. The degradation capacity of immobilized bacteria, different parameters such as substrate concentration (50-800 ppm), flow rate (10-60 ml h(-1)), and continuous contact with reaction medium (flow rate, 20 mi h(-1) and concentration, 100 ppm) that affect aldicarb degradation were investigated in a packed-bed reactor. Increases in t...
