Microbial degradation of phenols: a review

TL;DR: The microbial degradation of phenols has been reviewed including the phenol-degrading microbes, factors affecting degradability, and the use of biotechnology with emphasis on degradation mechanisms and their kinetics and it was clear it may never be possible to describe the kinetic properties of a microbial cell with a single set of constants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetics of batch microbial degradation of phenols by indigenous Pseudomonas fluorescence

TL;DR: The biokinetic constants estimated using these models showed good potential of the Pseudomonas fluorescence and the possibility of using it in bioremediation of phenol waste effluents and the Haldane model was found to give the best fit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioremediation of Soil Artificially Contaminated with Petroleum Hydrocarbon Oil Mixtures: Evaluation of the Use of Animal Manure and Chemical Fertilizer

TL;DR: In this article, a combination of treatments consisting of the application of poultry manure, piggery manure, goat manure, and chemical fertilizer was evaluated in situ during a period of 4 weeks of remediation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Box-Behnken design application to study enhanced bioremediation of soil artificially contaminated with spent engine oil using biostimulation strategy

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the biodegradation of spent engine oil in soil using Box-Behnken design under response surface methodology and obtained a statistically significant second-order quadratic regression model for TPH and hexavalent chromium (Cr) removal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Statistical optimization of process variables for biodiesel production from waste cooking oil using heterogeneous base catalyst.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of methanol -to-oil molar ratio, catalyst amount and reaction time on the transesterification of waste cooking oil (WCO) to biodiesel were investigated.
