## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** This study investigated the performance of anaerobic mesophilic granular sludge for the degradation of hexahydroβ1,3,5βtrinitroβ1,3,5βtriazine (RDX). Batch tests were conducted to investigate the effects of different supplements on the RDX degradation ability of anaerobi
The biotransformation of hexahydro-1,3,5trinitro-1,3,5 triazine (RDX) has been observed in liquid culture by a consortium of bacteria found in horse manure. Five types of bacteria were found to predominate in the consortium and were isolated. The most effective of these isolates at transforming RDX
