Pentachlorophenol transformation in soil: a toxicological assessment (2000)
Journal Article
McGrath, R., & Singleton, I. (2000). Pentachlorophenol transformation in soil: a toxicological assessment. Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 32(8-9), 1311-1314. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0038-0717%2800%2900015-8

Bioremediation is recognised as an economically viable method to treat contaminated soil and the use of microbial inoculants, in particular, white-rot fungi, has been proposed to enhance the remediation process. During bioremediation, a variety of po... Read More about Pentachlorophenol transformation in soil: a toxicological assessment.

Models for Estimating Solar Radiation and Illuminance From Meteorological Parameters (2000)
Journal Article
