AbstractPhenol is a harmful substance found in the wastewaters from certain chemical industries. In the present study phenol present in synthetic wastewater has been biodegraded in a bubble column bioreactor using Pseudomonas putida (NCIM-2650). Experiments have been carried out to determine gas holdup at various feed flow rates of synthetic wastewater, feed concentration, and air flow rate. Two dimensionless correlations, one in terms of bubble diameter and the other in terms of column diameter, have been developed for gas holdup.
