A mathematical model was developed to describe the sequential dechlorination of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol to 2,4-dichlorophenol, 4-chlorophenol and phenol. Each compound was assumed to be degraded according a Michaelis-Menten expression. Experimental data were used to obtain the model kinetic constants
A consortium of anaerobic microorganisms was grown on acetate, ethanol, glucose or methanol and dechlorinated 50 umol 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, through 2,4-dichlorophenol, to 4-chlorophenol. The highest rate of dechlorination of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol was observed when ethanol was used as a growth subs
