چکیده

A gas-permeable silicone membrane bioreactor was used to cultivate the biofilm under hydrogenotrophic condition for reductive dechlorination of 2-chlorophenol (2-CP). The anaerobic sludge obtained from a swine wastewater treatment plant was immobilized by polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) so as to form a biofilm on the surface of the silicone tube. After acclimating for about 4 months, the bioreactor showed a high dechlorinating performance. Under the condition of continuous feeding with 2-CP at 25 mg/l and the hydraulic retention time of 15 h, the 2-CP removal efficiency reached 92.8% (2-CP decay rate: 0.67 g/m(2)d of surface area of silicone tube). H(2) was used as electron donor for dechlorinating 2-CP, and produced the dechlorinating intermediate, phenol. Both nitrate and sulfate played important roles in inhibiting 2-CP dechlorination through different biological mechanisms. Nitrate can be easily utilized as an electron acceptor by the biofilm, while sulfate cannot. Results of this study demonstrated that nitrate competed with 2-CP as the electron acceptor, while sulfate retarded the activity of hydrogen-dechlorinating bacteria and thus inhibited the 2-CP dechlorination.

Regiospecificity of chlorophenol reductive dechlorination by vitamin b(12s).

Vitamin B(12), reduced by titanium (III) citrate to vitamin B(12s), catalyzes the reductive dechlorination of chlorophenols. Reductive dechlorination of pentachlorophenol and of all tetrachlorophenol and trichlorophenol isomers was observed. Reaction of various chlorophenols with vitamin B(12) favored reductive dechlorination at positions adjacent to another chlorinated carbon, but chlorines or...
