Reductive dehalogenation of trichlorophenol in sediment from Rio-Bogotá, Colombia: the potential for intrinsic bioremediation and biostimulation

The domestic and industrial wastes from approximately 8 million residents are discharged to the Rio-Bogotá river. This study demonstrates the reductive dehalogenation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol by Rio-Bogotá sediments and that the addition of an external carbon source can stimulate the process in micr...

Zusammenfassung:The domestic and industrial wastes from approximately 8 million residents are discharged to the Rio-Bogotá river. This study demonstrates the reductive dehalogenation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol by Rio-Bogotá sediments and that the addition of an external carbon source can stimulate the process in microcosms.
