Hydrogenotrophic Driven Biodegradation of Organic Micropollutants Involving Hydrogen Oxidizing Bacteria Ghent University
The occurrence of organic micropollutants (OMPs) at trace concentrations in the aquatic environment has become a growing concern in recent years. Biodegradation is an attractive approach for OMPs removal. Since the low concentrations of OMPs limit the growth of degrading bacteria as the main energy source, resulting in diminishing degradation rates, periodically dosing of assimilable organic carbon (AOCs) is considered in previous studies. ...
