Biochemical oxidations microorganisms used

BOD Biochemical Oxygen Demand - the rate at which microorganisms use the oxygen in water or wastewater while stabilizing decomposable organic matter under aerobic conditions. In decomposition, organic matter serves as food for the bacteria and energy results from this oxidation. [Pg.608]

Biochemical oxidations of sugars are very common and versatile. Depending on the microorganism used, hydroxylic groups in various positions can be oxidized to keto groups, and the aldehyde group is converted into a carboxyl group. [Pg.183]

When a leaking tank has contaminated a site or an aquifer, or an accidental spill occurs, the only option is remediation, that is, cleaning-up the site or any other environmental space that has been polluted. This remediation will often be performed by applying chemical processes to transform those undesirable substances either on- or off-site (e.g., by normal extraction and treatment techniques) using biochemical reactions with microorganisms, chemical oxidation, stabilization, or other advanced technologies. [Pg.10]
