Biodegradation and effect of formaldehyde and phenol on the denitrification process
Eiroa, M.; Vilar, A.; Amor, L.; Kennes, Christian; Veiga, María Carmen (Elsevier, 2005)Formaldehyde and phenol biodegradation during the denitrification process was studied at lab-scale, first in anoxic batch assays and then in a continuous anoxic reactor. The biodegradation of formaldehyde (260 mg l−1) as ... -
Biofilter performance and characterization of a biocatalyst degrading alkylbenzene gases
Veiga, María Carmen; Fraga, M.; Amor, L.; Kennes, Christian (2009-06)A biofilter treating alkylbenzene vapors was characterized for its optimal running conditions and kinetic parame-ters. Kinetics of the continuous biofilter were compared to batch kinetic data obtained with biofilm samples ... -
Kinetics of inhibition in the biodegradation of monoaromatic hydrocarbons in presence of heavy metals
Amor, L.; Kennes, Christian; Veiga, María Carmen (Elsevier Sciencie lted, 2001-06)The toxicity and inhibitory effects of heavy metals such as cadmium, nickel and zinc on alkylbenzene removal were evaluated with a Bacillus strain. The kinetics of alkylbenzene biodegradation with the different heavy metals ... -
Phenol biodegradation and its effect on the nitrification process
Amor, L.; Eiroa, M.; Kennes, Christian; Veiga, María Carmen (Elsevier, 2005-08)Phenol biodegradation under aerobic conditions and its effect on the nitrification process were studied, first in batch assays and then in an activated sludge reactor. In batch assays, phenol was completely biodegraded at ...
