Retraction: Improvement of Landfill Leachate Biodegradability with Ultrasonic Process
Landfills leachates are known to contain recalcitrant and/or non-biodegradable organic substances and biological processes are not efficient in these cases. A promising alternative to complete oxidation of biorecalcitrant leachate is the use of ultrasonic process as pre-treatment to convert initially biorecalcitrant compounds to more readily biodegradable intermediates. The objectives of this s...
متن کاملEffects of Culture Conditions on Production of trans-Cinnamic Acid from Alkylbenzenes by Soil Microorganisms.
The production of trans-cinnamic acid from various alkylbenzenes by soil microorganisms was studied intensively by use of a co-oxidation technique. The microorganisms were grown on n-paraffins, and they did not use aromatic compounds as a carbon source when the preferred substrate was present in the medium. The effects of cell population, co-oxidation time, and type and mode of addition of the ...
متن کاملBiodegradation of high concentrations of phenol by baker’s yeast in anaerobic sequencing batch reactor
Background: Phenol, as a pure substance, is used in many fields because of its disinfectant, germicidal, local anesthetic, and peptizing properties. Aqueous solutions of phenol are produced as waste in industries and discharged into the environment. Therefore, elevated concentrations of phenol may be found in air or water because of industrial discharge or the use of phenolic products. Method: ...
متن کاملBiodegradability of Phenol, Resorcinol and 5-methylresorcinol as Single and Mixed Substrates by Activated Sludge
The aim of this study was to investigate aerobic biodegradability of phenol, resorcinol and 5-methylresorcinol and their different two-component mixtures using activated sludge sampled from the Kohtla-Järve wastewater treatment plant. The degradation behaviour of phenolic compounds was investigated by respirometry. Non-linear regression analysis was used for determination of the kinetic paramet...
متن کاملAnaerobic biodegradability and treatment of Egyptian domestic sewage.
The anaerobic biodegradability of domestic sewage for four Egyptian villages and four Egyptian cities was determined in batch experiments. The results showed that the biodegradability of the Egyptian-villages sewage (73%) was higher than that of the cities (66%). The higher biodegradability of the soluble COD of village sewage (69%) as compared to that of the cities (46%) was the reason for the...
