| Abstract | The biodegradation of waters polluted by some bisphenols, endowed with endocrine activity, has been studied by means of laccase or tyrosinase immobilized on polyacrylonitrile (PAN) beads. Bisphenol A (BPA), Bisphenol B (BPB), Bisphenol F (BPF) and Tetrachlorobisphenol A (TCBPA) have been used. The laccase-PAN beads system has been characterized as a function of pH, temperature and substrate concentration. The biochemical parameters so obtained have been compared with those of the free enzyme to evidence the modification induced by the immobilization process. Once characterized, the laccase-PAN beads have been employed in a fluidized bed reactor to determine for each of the four bisphenols the degradation rate constant (k); the τ50, i.e., the time to obtain the 50% of degradation, and the removal efficiency (RE90) after 90 min of enzyme treatment. The same parameters have been measured for each of the four pollutants with the same fluidized bed bioreactor loaded with tyrosinase-PAN beads. The internal comparison, i.e., in each of the two catalytic systems, has shown that both enzymes exhibit a removal efficiency in the following order BPF>BPA>BPB>TCBPA. The external comparison, i.e., the comparison between the two catalytic system, has shown that the catalytic power of laccase were higher than that of tyrosinase. The operational stability of both catalytic systems resulted excellent, since they maintained more than 80% of the initial activity after 30 days of work. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
