Abstract:Pulp-paper mills (PPMs) are known for consistently generating a wide variety of pollutants, that are often unidentified and highly resistant to environmental degradation. The current study aims to investigate the changes in the indigenous bacterial communities profile grown in the sediment co-contaminated with organic and inorganic pollutants discharged from the PPMs. The two sediment samples, designated PPS-1 and PPS-2, were collected from two different sites. Physico-chemical characterization of PPS-1 and PP… Show more
“…19 Chlorophenols have also been linked to the chlorination of drinking water, the manufacture of paper, and the distillation of wood. 20–22 Other environmental sources of chlorophenols include the biodegradation of insecticides and herbicides. 23 Numerous chlorophenols are produced as intermediate metabolites during herbicide breakdown, particularly 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid and insecticides.…”
Environmental pollutants like chlorophenol chemicals and their derivatives are commonplace. These compounds serve as building blocks in the production of medicines, biocides, dyes, and agricultural chemicals. Chlorophenols enter the environment...
