Anaerobic microorganisms in municipal solid waste samples from laboratory-scale landfill reactors and a pilot-plant biogas digestor were investigated with the aim of assessing their ability to transform four commercially used phthalic acid esters (PAEs) and phthalic acid (PA). The PAEs studied were
Fifty isolates of fungi were screened for their ability to grow on and degrade sludge. Cunninghamella elegans was selected for further study of degradation as affected by moisture, nutrients, time and temperature. Maximal sludge degradation (total dry weight basis) was 5.8% by Rhizopus oligosporus,
