Further, to screen for BOD and COD remediation, selected 9 bacterial isolates and two fungal strains were again tested for their reduction potential using PPME under shaking (200 rpm) and stationary conditions. Based upon their rate of degradation of COD and BOD after 48 h at 28°C for bacterial strains viz. Bacillus subtillis and Micrococcus luteus and one fungal strain Phanerochaete chrysosporium were selected for final studies.
