This study describes the formation of biofilm on two different particulate media using modified kitchen waste extract as initial growth medium, and the subsequent testing of the this biofilm to biodegrade polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Two parallel completely mixed fluidized bed reactors, one usi...
