Bioremediation of hexamine and formaldehyde using a radio-tolerant bacterial consortium for efficient pollutant and COD removal

Involvement of <i>Brucella pseudintermedia</i> in hexamine and formaldehyde removal is being reported for the first time. The radio tolerant consortium in biofilm-based system showed enhanced hexamine, formaldehyde and COD removal efficiency compared to its suspended counterpart. This is a potential microbial formulation for the removal of hexamine and formaldehyde from stimulated wastewater.
