Biological Reduction of Perchlorate from Spent Modified Reed Mediated by an Enriched Microbial Culture

Figure 3

Biological removal of perchlorate adsorbed on quaternary-ammonium MR by EMC sustained on brewer’s yeast as an electron donor. The initial conditions were: [ClO4] added to MR = 30 mg/L; MR = 2.0 g/L; yeast = 0.1 g; pH = 7.0 ± 0.5; T = 25°C.
