A Net Draft Tube Slurry Airlift Bioreactor for 2,4-D (2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid) Pesticide Biodegradation

Biodegradation of the pesticides 2,4-D have been investigated in a net draft tube airlift bioreactor at different concentrations (10–160 ppm) and air flow rates (0.75–4 L min−1), employing acclimatised activated sludge. A modification for the glass draft tube airlift bioreactor was proposed in which...
