Transformation and biodegradation of 1,2,3-trichloropropane (TCP)
PURPOSE 1,2,3-Trichloropropane (TCP) is a persistent groundwater pollutant and a suspected human carcinogen. It is also is an industrial chemical waste that has been formed in large amounts during epichlorohydrin manufacture. In view of the spread of TCP via groundwater and its toxicity, there is a need for cheap and efficient technologies for the cleanup of TCP-contaminated sites. In situ or o...
متن کاملBiodegradation Modeling of Nitrophenolic Pollutant in a Slurry Bubble Reactor
Biodegradation kinetics of 4-nitrophenol (PNP) in aqueous solution by a gram negative soil bacterium, Ralstoniaeutropha was firstly studied in a small scale batch reactor. The degradation of PNP was evaluated at initial PNP concentrations ranging from 3 mg/L to 14 mg/L. The rate of PNP consumption by the bacterium culture was modeled using Monod and Contois kinetics in batch condition. PNP degr...
متن کاملAnaerobic Electron Acceptor Amendment for Aromatic Pollutant Biodegradation in Sediments
Recent studies in our laboratory and others have demonstrated conclusively that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and other unsubstituted aromatics are biodegradable under anaerobic conditions. This important result suggests that PAH contamination in anaerobic environments (such as sediments) may be more amenable to biological treatment than once thought. In previous work, we postulated t...
متن کاملA Pseudomonas putida strain genetically engineered for 1,2,3-trichloropropane bioremediation.
1,2,3-Trichloropropane (TCP) is a toxic compound that is recalcitrant to biodegradation in the environment. Attempts to isolate TCP-degrading organisms using enrichment cultivation have failed. A potential biodegradation pathway starts with hydrolytic dehalogenation to 2,3-dichloro-1-propanol (DCP), followed by oxidative metabolism. To obtain a practically applicable TCP-degrading organism, we ...
متن کاملApplications of goethite nanoparticles for removal of arsenic and mercury toxic ions from synthetic wastewater
Contamination of water resources with toxic elements is one of the challenges of thetoday's world. In this research, application of Goethite nanoparticles in removingcontamination of arsenic and mercury from synthetic wastewater in a batch mode isinvestigated. For this purpose, the effect of different factors including pH, adsorbent dosage,contac...
