Biodegradation of 13C6-phenol until mineralisation was observed under mesophilic and thermophilic conditions during the degradation of municipal solid waste. In Mesophilic conditions, as well as in thermophilic, two types of degradation kinetics were obtained. One follows a first order kinetic and the other follows a lag-phase model. The pyrosequen...
A new method to estimate the biodegradation potential of S-metolachlor, in an artificial wetland ecosystem (AWE) in Bray, France, was developed. For that propose, batch experiments were performed with sediments collected from AWE. The half-life of S-metolachlor was determined under biotic and abiotic conditions (sterile microcosms), aerobic and ano...
Las bacterias termófilas anaerobias son capaces de producir etanol como principal producto de fermentación a partir de un amplio espectro de substratos, como hexosas, di- y polisacáridos y varias pentosas. Existen muchas ventajas de llevar a cabo fermentaciones a elevadas temperaturas sin necesidad de aereación y enfriamieno; entre ellas la remoció...
