Issue Date: | 2004 | Citation: | Jinadasa, K.B.S.N.,Mun, C.H.,Aziz, M.A.,Ng, W.J. (2004). Acidogenic pretreatment of wastewaters containing 2-nitrophenol. Water Science and Technology 50 (8) : 119-124. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | Anaerobic Toxicity Assay (ATA) tests were conducted on acidogenic cultures to assess the feasibility of using acidogenic processes to treat wastewaters containing 2-nitrophenol. Results indicated 2-nitrophenol could be removed with a removal efficiency of more than 98%. 2-aminophenol was identified as the major metabolite of the biotransformation of 2-nitrophenol. Reduction in inhibition potential of acidogenic pretreated effluent was observed in the aerobic process. EC50 values of 2-nitrophenol and 2-aminophenol were found to be 0.065 mM and 1.83 mM respectively. © IWA Publishing 2004. | Source Title: | Water Science and Technology | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/84512 | ISSN: | 02731223 |
