Title:
METHOD FOR THE REDUCTION OF TOTAL ORGANIC CARBON IN HYPERSALINE WATER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/124375
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method for the reduction of total organic carbon in a hypersaline solution by mixing the solution with at least one halophilic and/or haloalkaliphilic microorganism suspension and cultivate this composition under defined conditions at which the microorganisms are able to metabolize propane-1,2,3-triol, acetates, and/or oligomers and derivates thereof, as part of the total organic carbon content.
