Možnosti aerobního mikrobiálního odbourávání trichlorethenu

Abstract

The article reviews contemporary basic knowledge of microbial degradation of trichloroethene. It gives a number of literature data on key enzymes, appropriate microorganisms, degradation products and also suggests unclarified problems of the process. Perspectives of microbiological decontamination of underground waters by possibly complete mineralization of the pollutant are discussed. The key role is attributed to the choice of an appropriate microorganism.
