Photochemical Degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol in Aqueous Solutions by Fe2+/ Peroxydisulfate/ UV Process
Phenol and its derivatives are one of the most common contaminants in the aquatic ecosystem. Because of high toxicity of 2,4-DCP for aquatic life, resistance to biodegradation and potential for biological accumulation it is known as a priority contaminant in the aquatic environment. Advanced Oxidation Processes were successfully used for degradation of non-biodegradable contaminants that are re...
متن کاملPhenol biodegradation by fungal cells immobilized in sol-gel hybrids.
The capability of cells of the fungus Aspergillus awamori, either free or immobilized in hybrid sol-gel material cells, for phenol biodegradation was demonstrated. Phenol was present in the reaction mixture as the sole carbon and energy source, and its decomposition was followed in repeated batch degradation experiments. Atomic force microscopy provided information on the development of self-or...
متن کاملBiodegradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol and phenol in an airlift inner-loop bioreactor immobilized with Achromobacter sp
An airlift inner-loop bioreactor packed with honeycomb-like ceramic as the carrier was developed and its capacity to immobilize microorganism was studied through adding bacteria, Achromobacter sp., capable of degrading 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP), directly to the reactor under continuous operation. Effects of phenol in the feed with 2,4-DCP on 2,4-DCP removal were investigated under fed-batch ...
متن کاملBiodegradation of phenol by Antarctic strains of Aspergillus fumigatus.
Taxonomic identification of three newly isolated Antarctic fungal strains by their 18S rDNA sequences revealed their affiliation with Aspergillus fumigatus. Phenol (0.5 g/l) as the sole carbon source was completely degraded by all strains within less than two weeks. Intracellular activities of three key enzymes involved in the phenol catabolism were determined. Activities of phenol hydroxylase ...
متن کاملPhenolic acids aect transformations of chlorophenols by a Coriolus versicolor laccase
Partially-puri®ed extracellular laccase of Coriolus versicolor transformed chlorophenols in the following order: 2,4,6trichlorophenol > 2,6-dichlorophenol > 2,4-dichlorophenol, 2-chlorophenol > 2,3-dichlorophenol. On the other hand, 3and 4chlorophenols, 2,5-, 3,4and 3,5-dichlorophenols, 2,4,5-trichlorophenol and pentachlorophenol were recalcitrant to the laccase. Sinapinic acid, a naturally-occ...
