Diversity of dehalorespiring bacteria and selective enrichment of aryl halides-dechlorinating consortium from sedimentary environment near an oil refinery

This study demonstrated the potential for reductive dechlorination of aryl halides in a sedimentary environment by naturally occurring bacteria. A laboratory sediment microcosm and highly enriched, stable dechlorinating cultures were established using hydrogen as electron donor and 2,3-dichloropheno...
