Experimental Removal of Aromatic Hydrocarbons by Thermophilic Bacteria in a Fixed Bed Reactor, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Borghei, Mehdi (Supervisor) ; Vossoughi, Manouchehr (Supervisor) ; Zeinali, Majid (Supervisor)
Abstract
According to the environmental lows and standards, wastewater of petroleum industries such as refineries and petrochemical that include many petroleum compounds like aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons, must be treated up to desirable limit, before entering the collecting network. Using microorganisms is one of the fundamental ways of biodegradation of these polluted compounds. Since phenolic compounds are the main components of raw petroleum, strains that are capable of tolerating phenol and usage of this poisonous hydrocarbon are specifically important. Therefore, in this study the potentiality of the indigenous thermophilic bacterium Nocardia otitidiscaviarum strain TSH1, for degradation...
