Monoaromatic pollutants such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and mixture of xylenes
are now considered as widespread contaminants of groundwater. In situ bioremediation …

Monoaromatic pollutants such as benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene and xylenes are the most
commonly cited environmental contaminants in recent years and have attracted the attention …

Written by experts in the field, this thoroughly updated third edition covers commonly used
and emerging suspended and attached growth reactors. Drawing on their extensive …

Toluene enters waters from different industries and has a hazardous effect on the
environment and humans. So, accurate determination of toluene in water must be evaluated …

This study was designed to examine the role of molecular structure in determining the
biodegradation rates of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Laboratory experiments …

Predictions of natural attenuation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the unsaturated
zone rely critically on information about microbial biodegradation kinetics. This study aims at …

Removal of benzene and toluene, as the major pollutants of water resources, has attracted
researchers' attention, given the risk they pose to human health. In the present study, the …

The removal of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX) as quaternary mixtures
were studied in batch systems using a well-defined mixed microbial culture. The synergistic …

The biodegradation kinetics of BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene isomers)
compounds were studied individually and as mixtures by using models with different levels …

A quantitative evaluation of the biodegradation rates of mixtures of volatile aromatic
compounds (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes [BTEX]) was conducted. Three …
