OPTIMIZING BTEX BIODEGRADATION UNDER DENITRIFYING CONDITIONS [PDF]
Abstract Laboratory tests were conducted to determine optimum conditions for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (collectively known as BTEX) biodegradation by aquifer microorganisms under denitrifying conditions. Microcosms, constructed with aquifer samples from Traverse City, Michigan, were amended with selected concentrations ...

Urban BTEX Spatiotemporal Exposure Assessment by Chemometric Expertise [PDF]
Normative regulations on benzene in fuels and urban management strategies are expected to improve air quality. The present study deals with the application of self-organizing maps (SOMs) in order to explore the spatiotemporal variations of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene levels in an urban atmosphere.

Substrate Interactions during the Biodegradation of Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenze, and Xylene (BTEX) Hydrocarbons by the Fungus Cladophialophora sp. Strain T1 [PDF]
The soil fungus Cladophialophora sp. strain T1 (= ATCC MYA-2335) was capable of growth on a model water-soluble fraction of gasoline that contained all six BTEX components (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and the xylene isomers).

Nitrate addition to groundwater impacted by ethanol-blended fuel accelerates ethanol removal and mitigates the associated metabolic flux dilution and inhibition of BTEX biodegradation [PDF]
A comparison of two controlled ethanol-blended fuel releases under monitored natural attenuation (MNA) versus nitrate biostimulation (NB) illustrates the potential benefits of augmenting the electron acceptor pool with nitrate to accelerate ethanol ...

BTEX Maruziyet Verilerinin Sektörel Açıdan İncelenmesi
Benzen, toluen, etil benzen ve ksilen (BTEX) havadaki önemli toksik uçucu organik bileşiklerdendir. Kapalı çalışma ortamında boyalar, çözücüler, yapıştırıcılar ve temizlik maddeleri gibi çeşitli emisyon kaynaklarına sahiptirler. Ortama salındıklarında hızlı bir şeklide havaya karışırlar ve vücuda solunum yoluyla kolayca girebilirler.
