Effluents from pharmaceutical and coal gasification industries contain recalcitrant aromatic
pollutants such as quinoline. Ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) has been known to …

In order to strengthen the removal efficiency of heterocyclic nitrogenous compounds in
industrial wastewater, a new bacterial strain identified as Bacillus sp. LH-1 was isolated …

A bacterial strain, BW003, which utilized quinoline as its sole C, N and energy source, was
isolated and identified as Pseudomonas sp. BW003 degraded 192–911mg/l quinoline within …

A Pseudomonas sp. strain, which can utilize quinoline as its sole carbon, nitrogen and
energy source, was isolated from activated sludge in a coking wastewater treatment plant …

BACKGROUND Quinoline exerts inhibitory effects on microorganisms in the biological
process. However, microbial degradation of quinoline is feasible, and bacteria with …

Two degrading bacterial strains utilizing quinoline as sole carbon source and nitrogen
source for growth and supersession were isolated from coking waste water treatment …

Quinoline and its derivatives are N-heterocyclic compounds that are widely distributed in the
environment. Many of these compounds are toxic and therefore pose a significant concern …

A novel quinoline-degrading strain, named K4, was isolated from activated sludge of a
coking wastewater treatment plant and identified as Brevundimonas sp. on the basis of its …

In this study, the effect of quinoline on nitrification in an activated sludge system was
evaluated in batch assays. Quinoline was evaluated to partial nitrification process or to …

A quinoline-degrading strain, C2, which could completely degrade 250 mg/L of quinoline
within 24 h, was isolated from coking wastewater. Strain C2 was identified as Ochrobactrum …
