title: [Study on degradation of phenols in water].
abstract: The degradation of phenols in water and the effects of microbiolism, pH and dissolved oxygen (DO) on the degradation were investigated. The results showed that the degradation of phenols in water was mainly that of biochemistry, which depends on the existence of microbiolism. The most suitable pH for the degradation was 6 to 9, and no effects of DO on it were found. The accustomization of microbiolism with phenols would accelerate the degradation.
