Biodegradation of saline phenolic wastewater in a biological contact oxidation reactor with immobilized cells of Oceanimonas sp.

OBJECTIVE: To develop a method to treat saline phenolic wastewater in a biological contact oxidation reactor (BCOR) with immobilized cells of a marine microorganism, Oceanimonas sp., isolated from seawater.

RESULTS: Cells were immobilized on fibre carriers in the BCOR. Saline wastewater with phenol at 1.5 g/l and NaCl at 6 % (w/v) was treated. In continuous assays, 99 % removal of phenol was achieved and a kinetic model for the phenol degradation is presented based on Monod's equation.

CONCLUSION: The BOCR system using immobilized cells of Oceanimonas efficiently treats saline phenolic wastewaters without having decrease the salinity of the wastewater.
