Microbial transformation of chlorinated benzenes under anaerobic conditions.
Chlorobenzenes are reductively dechlorinated by anaerobic bacterial cultures obtained from sediments and sludge. Recently a strain was isolated that couples reductive dechlorination of chlorobenzenes with energy conservation. The results reviewed in this article suggest that additional anaerobic bacteria, thriving by dehalogenation of chlorobenzenes or chlorobiphenylic compounds, can be isolated.
متن کاملBiotransformation of tetrachloroethylene to trichloroethylene, dichloroethylene, vinyl chloride, and carbon dioxide under methanogenic conditions.
Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethylene (TCE), common industrial solvents, are among the most frequent contaminants found in groundwater supplies. Due to the potential toxicity and carcinogenicity of chlorinated ethylenes, knowledge about their transformation potential is important in evaluating their environmental fate. The results of this study confirm that PCE can be transformed by r...
متن کاملUltrafine Zinc and Nickel, Palladium, Silver Coated Zinc Particles Used for Reductive Dehalogenation of Chlorinated Ethylenes in Aqueous Solution
Zero-valent zinc metal has been employed for the reductive dehalogenation of chlorinated ethylenes. In order to enhance this environmental remediation chemistry, ultrafine zinc particles and transition metal additives (coatings) have been employed. Indeed, activated zinc (cryozinc) significantly enhanced the reduction/dehalogenation process, especially in the presence of nickel and palladium co...
متن کاملReductive dehalogenation of brominated phenolic compounds by microorganisms associated with the marine sponge Aplysina aerophoba.
Marine sponges are natural sources of brominated organic compounds, including bromoindoles, bromophenols, and bromopyrroles, that may comprise up to 12% of the sponge dry weight. Aplysina aerophoba sponges harbor large numbers of bacteria that can amount to 40% of the biomass of the animal. We postulated that there might be mechanisms for microbially mediated degradation of these halogenated ch...
متن کاملDehalogenation and biodegradation of brominated phenols and benzoic acids under iron-reducing, sulfidogenic, and methanogenic conditions.
The anaerobic biodegradation of monobrominated phenols and benzoic acids by microorganisms enriched from marine and estuarine sediments was determined in the presence of different electron acceptors [i.e., Fe(III), SO4(2-), or HCO3-]. Under all conditions tested, the bromophenol isomers were utilized without a lengthy lag period whereas the bromobenzoate isomers were utilized only after a lag p...
