Enhanced toluene removal using granular activated carbon and a yeast strain candida tropicalis in bubble-column bioreactors [PDF]
The yeast strain Candida tropicalis was used for the biodegradation of gaseous toluene. Toluene was effectively treated by a liquid culture of C. tropicalis in abubble-column bioreactor, and the tolueneremoval efficiency increased with decreasing gas ...

Selective alkylation of toluene over basic zeolites: an in situ infrared spectroscopic investigation [PDF]
In situinfrared spectroscopy was used to study the sorption and reaction of toluene and methanol over various alkali exchanged X zeolites. The size of the metal cations controls the preference of sorbing methanol or toluene.
