Microbiome Composition and Dynamics of a Reductive/Oxidative Bioelectrochemical System for Perchloroethylene Removal: Effect of the Feeding Composition

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Chlorinated solvents still represent an environmental concern that requires sustainable and innovative bioremediation strategies. This study describes the microbiome composition of a novel bioelectrochemical system (BES) based on sequential reductive ...

Reductive Dechlorination of 1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Science & Technology, 2002
Products of the transformation of organic pollutants in the environment are often predicted based on the structure of the parent compounds. In some cases, however, multiple products may result from the same reaction pathway. In this study, the reduction of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane (1,1,2,2-TeCA) is investigated both experimentally and computationally.

A critical review of recent advances in the bio-remediation of chlorinated substances by microbial dechlorinators

open access: yesChemical Engineering Journal Advances, 2022
A significant health risk is associated with chlorinated hydrocarbon contamination in soils and groundwater. Microbial reductive dechlorination, one of the major pathways of chlorinated hydrocarbon degradation, has been extensively studied in anaerobic ...

Microbial Chain Elongation and Subsequent Fermentation of Elongated Carboxylates as H2-Producing Processes for Sustained Reductive Dechlorination of Chlorinated Ethenes.

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Technology, 2021
In situ anaerobic groundwater bioremediation of trichloroethene (TCE) to nontoxic ethene is contingent on organohalide-respiring Dehalococcoidia, the most common strictly hydrogenotrophic Dehalococcoides mccartyi (D. mccartyi).

Characterization of a Highly Enriched Microbial Consortium Reductively Dechlorinating 2,3-Dichlorophenol and 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol and the Corresponding cprA Genes from River Sediment [PDF]

open access: yesPolish Journal of Microbiology, 2016
Anaerobic reductive dechlorination of 2,3-dichlorophenol (2,3DCP) and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6TCP) was investigated in microcosms from River Nile sediment.

Dechlorination by combined electrochemical reduction and oxidation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Zhejiang University-SCIENCE B, 2005
Chlorophenols are typical priority pollutants listed by USEPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency). The removal of chlorophenol could be carried out by a combination of electrochemical reduction and oxidation method. Results showed that it was feasible to degrade contaminants containing chlorine atoms by electrochemical reduction to form phenol ...

Biotic and abiotic reductive dechlorination of chloroethenes in aquitards.

open access: yesScience of the Total Environment, 2021
Chlorinated solvents occur as dense nonaqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) or as solutes when dissolved in water. They are present in many pollution sites in urban and industrial areas.
