Abstract
Candida tropicalis was isolated from activated sludge.The strain could utilize phenol as a carbon and energy source.And its capacity of phenol biodegradation reached(2 000) mg/L.By the studies on cell growth and phenol biodegradation under the conditions of different temperature,pH and phenol concentration,the phenol-degrading conditions were optimized,and the kinetic model of cell growth was obtained.
