Removal and biodegradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by Selenastrum capricornutum
TL;DR: The removal and degradation of a mixture of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), namely phenanthrene (PHE), fluoranthene (FLA), and pyrene (PYR), by a green microalgal species, Selenastrum capricornutum, at different initial cell densities were studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biosorption and biodegradation of tributyltin (TBT) by alginate immobilized Chlorella vulgaris beads in several treatment cycles
TL;DR: Results suggested that the alginate immobilized alga, C. vulgaris was able to continuously detoxify TBT into DBT and MBT for six consecutive cycles even at the highest TBT contamination level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of hydroxy metabolites of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by fully automated solid-phase microextraction derivatization and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry
TL;DR: The proposed method could be used to analyze the metabolites of PAHs degraded by microorganisms such as algae and to determine the biodegradation pathways ofPAHs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of nutrients on the biodegradation of tributyltin (TBT) by alginate immobilized microalga, Chlorella vulgaris, in natural river water.
TL;DR: The addition of nutrients in contaminated water stimulated the growth and physiological activity of C. vulgaris immobilized in alginate beads and improved its TBT degradation efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of ion chromatography to the Hong Kong rainfall monitoring program
P.A. Tanner,Sidney M.N. Chan +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the results from a rainwater monitoring program in Hong Kong from May 1994 to April 1995, with 60 sample collection days, are presented for Cl −, NO 3 − and SO 4 2− concentrations from suppressed and non-suppressed column ion chromatography.
