The biodegradation data were evaluated versus time and
analysed using the logistic model (1) (Fig. 3). The kinetic model
was performed according to Cobas et al. (2013), where, D is the
percent of pollutant removal at a specific moment during the
cultivation time t (d), D0 and Dmax are the initial and maximum
removal percentages (%), respectively, and R is the maximum
specific removal rate (1/d).
