Degradation of synthetic oligomers by microorganisms. I. Microbial degradation of styrene oligomer.

Microbial degradation of synthetic recalcitrant compounds.

Synthetic compounds, particularly highly chlorinated aromatics, comprise the bulk of the environmental pollutants that somehow must be removed from the environment. Microbial degradation of such compounds is usually very slow, making them highly persistent in nature. Some synthetic compounds, with a lower degree of chlorination are, however, biodegradable; biochemical, genetic, and molecular st...

MICROBIAL CHAIN DEGRADATION OF CHOLESTEROL BY ARTHROB ACTER SIMPLEX

Because of the importance of microbial metabolites of cholesterol as precursors in the synthesis of steroidal drugs, we decided to study the ability of Arthrobacter simplex to degrade cholesterol. Arthrobacter simplex cleaves the side chain of cholesterol in the presence of 2,2'-dipyridyl and produces 4-androstene-3,17- dione (AD) and androsta- 1,4-diene-3,17-dione(ADD). Two other intermedi...

Biochemistry, genetics and physiology of microbial styrene degradation.

The last few decades have seen a steady increase in the global production and utilisation of the alkenylbenzene, styrene. The compound is of major importance in the petrochemical and polymer-processing industries, which can contribute to the pollution of natural resources via the release of styrene-contaminated effluents and off-gases. This is a cause for some concern as human over-exposure to ...

6 Aerobic Degradation by Microorganisms

degradation of oil impregnated paper insulation under influence of repetitive fast high voltage impulses

در طی سالهای اخیراستفاده ازمنابع انرژی تجدید پذیر در شبکه های مدرن بنا به دلایل زیست محیطی و اقتصادی به طور گسترده استفاده شده است همچون نیروگاههای بادی و خورشیدی .ولتاژتولیدی این نیروگاهها اغلب به فرم dc می باشد وادوات الکترونیک قدرت به عنوان مبدل و پل بین شکل موج dc وac استفاده می شوند.این پروسه باعث ایجاد پالسهایی برروی شکل موج خروجی می شود که می تواند وارد تجهیزات قدرت همچون ترانسفورماتور ی...
