Abstract
4-Chlorophenol (4-CP) is a chlorinated aromatic compound with broad industrial applications. It is released into the environment as an industrial byproduct and is highly resistant to biodegradation. Pseudomonas sp. in the environment and activated sludge are used for 4-CP bioremediation; however, the degradation of 4-CP takes a long time. Consequently, the toxicity of 4-CP is a major barrier to its bioremediation. In this study, we investigated the synergistic effect of electrically neutral reactive species on the bacterial bioremediation of 4-CP. Our results showed that the concentration of 4-CP decreased from 2.0 to 0.137 mM and that it was converted to 4-chlorocatechol (4-CC; 0.257 mM), 4-chlororesorcinol (0.157 mM), hydroquinone (0.155 mM), and trihydroxy chlorobenzene and their respective ring-cleaved products following irradiation of neutral reactive species. These compounds were less toxic than 4-CP, except for 4-CC, which reduced the toxicity of 4-CP to Pseudomonas putida. When the neutral reactive species-treated 4-CP fraction was added to P. putida cultured in a synthetic sewage medium for 48 h, the 4-CP concentration was reduced to 0.017 mM, whereas nontreated 4-CP (2.0 mM) was hardly degraded by P. putida. These results suggest that the biodegradation of 4-CP can be efficiently improved by combining irradiation of neutral reactive species with microbial treatment. The irradiation of neutral reactive species of environmental pollutants may additionally lead to further improvements in bioremediation processes.

Abstract
In present work, biodegradation of 4-Chlorophenol (4-CP) has been successfully achieved using bacteria i.e. Bacillus subtilis (MF447841.1), which was isolated from the wastewater of a nearby drain of Hyundai Motor Company service centre, Agartala, Tripura (India). Geonomic identification was carried out by 16 S rDNA technique and phylogenetic processes. Both, batch and column mode of experiments were performed to optimize various parameters (initial concentration, contact time, dosages etc.) involved in the significant biodegradation of 4-CP. Based on R2 value (0.9789), the Levenspiel's model was found to be best fit than others. The kinetic parameters; specific growth rate (μ), yield of cell mass (YX/S), and saturation constant (KS), were obtained as 0.6383 (h-1), 0.35 (g/g), and 0.006884 (g/L), respectively. The isolated strain has shown the ability of degrading 4-CP up to 1000 mg/L initial concentration within 40 h. Bacterial strain was immobilized via developing calcium alginate beads along by optimizing weight proportion of calcium chloride and sodium alginate and size of the bead for further experiments. Various process parameters i.e. initial feed concentration, bed height, rate of flow of were optimized during packed bed reactor (PBR) study. Maximum biodegradation efficiency of 4-CP was observed as 45.39% at initial concentration of 500 mg/L within 105 min, using 2 mm size of immobilized beads which were formed using 3.5% w/v of both calcium chloride and sodium alginate within. Thus, Bacillus subtilis (MF447841.1) could be used for biological remediation of 4-CP pollutant present in wastewater. Moreover, because of affordable and eco-friendly nature of water treatment, relatively it has the better scope of commercialization.

Abstract
ABSTRACTEnvironmental contamination by 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) is a major concern. Photosynthetic bacteria have the ability to biodegrade 4-CP under dark aerobic conditions. In this study, we found that using different carbon sources (i.e. glucose, sodium acetate, sodium propionate sucrose, and malic acid) as co-metabolic substrates accelerated the biodegradation of 4-CP, and this acceleration was especially pronounced in the glucose treatment. A maximum degradation rate of 96.99% was reached under a concentration of 3.0 g·L-1 after 6 days of culture. The optimum conditions were pH 7.5, a temperature of 30°C, and a rotation speed of 135 rpm. The biodegradation of 4-CP was achieved at a range of salinities (0-3.0% NaCl, w/v). The biodegradation kinetics agreed with the Haldane model, and the kinetic constants were rmax = 0.14 d-1, Km = 33.9 mg·L-1, and Ki = 159.6 mg·L-1. Additionally, the coexistence of phenol or 2,4-dichlorophenol (2, 4-DCP) had a certain impact on the degradation of 4-CP under dark aerobic conditions. When the coexisting phenol concentration reached 100 mg·L-1, the maximum degradation rate of 4-CP reached 90.20%. The degradation rate of 4-CP decreased as the concentration of coexisting 2, 4-DCP increased.

Abstract
In this study, three psychrotolerant phenol-degrading yeast strains Candida subhashii (strain A011), Candida oregonenis (strain B021) and Schizoblastosporion starkeyi-henricii (strain L012) isolated from Rucianka peatland were examined to determine which alternative metabolic pathway for phenol biodegradation is used by these microorganisms. All yeast strains were cultivated in minimal salt medium supplemented with phenol at 500, 750 and 1000 mg l-1 concentration with two ways of conducting phenol biodegradation experiments: with and without the starving step of yeast cells. For studied yeast strains, no catechol 2,3-dioxygenase activities were detected by enzymatic assay and no products of catechol meta-cleavage in yeast cultures supernatants (GC-MS analysis), were detected. The detection of catechol 1,2-dioxygenase activity and the presence of cis,cis-muconic acid in the analyzed samples revealed that all studied psychrotolerant yeast strains were able to metabolize phenol via the ortho-cleavage pathway. Therefore, they may be tested in terms of their use to develop biotechnology for the production of cis,cis-muconic acid, a substrate used in the production of plastics (PET) and other valuable goods.

Abstract
Degradation of phenol is considered to be a challenge because of harsh environments in cold regions and ground waters. Molecular characterization of phenol degrading bacteria was investigated to gain an insight into the biodegradation in cold areas. The psychrotolerant and psychrophiles bacteria were isolated from alpine soils in the northeast of Iran. These strains belonged to Pseudomonas sp., Stenotrophomonas spp. and Shinella spp. based on analysis of the 16S rRNA gene. These strains were capable of the complete phenol degradation at a concentration of 200 mg L-1 at 20 °C. Moreover, the strains could degrade phenol at a concentration of 400 and 600 mg L-1 at a higher time. Effects of environmental factors were studied using one factor at a time (OFAT) approach for Pseudomonas sp.ATR208. When the bacterium was grown in a liquid medium with 600 mg L-1 of concentration supplemented with optimum carbon and nitrogen sources, more than 99% of phenol removal was obtained at 20 °C and 24 h. Therefore, the present study indicated the potential of the local cold tolerant bacteria in the phenol bioremediation.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to analyze the mechanisms, stoichiometry, and stability of 4-chlorophenol (4CP) biodegradation kinetics by phenol-acclimated activated sludge using open respirometry. While the removal of 4CP was higher than 98%, the removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) ranged between 69 and 79% due to the accumulation of an intermediate metabolite. The value obtained from respirometric profiles for the stoichiometric ratio of O2 to 4CP (YO2/4CP) was 1.95 ± 0.04 mol of oxygen consumed per mol of 4CP removed. This YO2/4CP value reflected the action of the oxygenases responsible for the first steps of the aerobic oxidation of 4CP. The 4CP degradation activity decreased noticeably when successive pulses of 4CP were added to the respirometer. A mathematical model was developed to represent the aerobic biodegradation of 4CP. The fitted model adequately predicted the oxygen consumption rate, total phenols, and soluble COD concentrations as a function of time. The results presented could help to predict the dynamic of biodegradation of chlorophenols in a biological wastewater treatment system.

Abstract
In this study, the potential of selected psychrotolerant yeast strains for phenol biodegradation was studied. From 39 strains isolated from soil and water samples from Rucianka peat bog, three psychrotolerant yeast strains, A011, B021, and L012, showed the ability to degrade phenol. The result shows that all three yeast strains could degrade phenol at 500 and 750 mg l-1 concentration, whereas strains A011 and L012 could degrade phenol at 1000 mg l-1 concentration. The time needed for degradation of each phenol concentration was no longer than 2 days. Strains A011, B021, and L012 were identified based on 26S rDNA and ITS sequence analysis as belonging to species Candida subhashii, Candida oregonensis, and Schizoblastosporion starkeyi-henricii, respectively.
