Biodegradation - PAH degradation and DBT desulfurization

  • State of the art

Previous scaffold system has been used to accelerate biosynthetic pathway. However, no one before has applied Scaffold to facilitate biodegradation. Actually biodegradation is indispensible in environment restoration, so now we are trying to recruit Membrane Accelerator to accelerate the biodegradation of pollutants.

  • Aims

To testify the feasibility of Membrane Accelerator in Biodegradation Pathway

To accelerate degradation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon(PAH)

To accelerate degradation of Dibenzothiophene (DBT) desulfurization


  • Achievements

A novel concept is proposed to apply scaffold system to facilitate biodegradation pathway.


Biodegradation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon(PAH)

Biodesulfurization of Dibenzothiophene (DBT)
