Aerobic biotransformation of chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons by a benzyl alcohol grown mixed culture : cometabolism, mechanisms, kinetics and modeling

The aerobic transformation of TCE and cis-DCE by a tetrabutoxysilane-grown microorganism (Vancheeswaran et al., 1999) led to the investigation of novel substrates, including benzyl alcohol, for promoting cometabolism. The culture grew on carboxylic compounds and alcohols, but did not grow on formate...
