ABSTRACT: The coke wastewater is one of the most toxic sources, due to the high concentration of various phenolic compounds. In this study, two bacterial strains isolated from soil built a promising group since they were able to biodegrade several phenolic compounds in the coke wastewater. Pseudomonas Sp. C1 could efficiently remove the high concentration of phenol and p-cresol in the 12 hours while Acinetobacter sp. C2 showed the wide versatility to degrade the 4-dichlorophenol, p-cresol, ...
