| Abstract | The present study shows the feasibility of a newly isolated strain Acinetobacter sp. B9 for concurrent removal of phenol and Cr (VI) from wastewater. The experiments were conducted in a batch reactor under aerobic conditions. Initially, when mineral salt solution was used as the culture medium, the strain was found to utilize phenol as sole carbon and energy source while no Cr (VI) removal was observed. However, the addition of glucose as co-carbon source resulted in the removal of both toxicants. This co-removal efficiency of the strain was further improved with nutrient-rich media (NB). Optimum co-removal was determined at 188 mg L−1 of phenol and 3.5 mg L−1 of Cr (VI) concentrations at pH 7.0. Strain B9 followed the orthometabolic pathway for phenol degradation. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) studies showed sorption of chromium as one of the major mechanisms for Cr (VI) removal by B9 cells. Acinetobacter sp. B9 was later on checked for bioremediation of real tannery wastewater. After 96 h of batch treatment of tannery effluent containing an initial 47 mg L−1 phenol and 16 mg L−1 Cr (VI), complete removal of phenol and 87 % reduction of Cr (VI) were attained, showing high efficiency of the bacterial strain for potential application in industrial pollution control. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
