Cresols are monomethyl derivatives of phenol frequently used as solvents and intermediates in the production of disinfectants, fragrances, pesticides, dyes, and explosives, which is probably why they are widely distributed in the environment. General population may be exposed to cresols
This study examines the feasibility of coupling a Catalytic Wet Air Oxidation (CWAO), with activated carbon (AC) as catalyst, and an aerobic biological treatment to treat a high-strength o-cresol wastewater. Two goals are pursued: (a) To determine the effect of

Exposure to hydroxyl-substituted arenes, commonly referred to as phenols or phenolic compounds, can have serious health consequences. Select phenols present in tobacco smoke are cardiovascular toxins, act as tumor co-promoters and show genotoxic activity. To examine the mainstream smoke levels
