Three phenol- and alkanes-degrading bacterial strains were isolated from a freshwater sample. Upon the 16S rRNA gene analysis, phenotype and physiological features, the three strains were designated as Acinetobacter sp. with both phenol hydroxylase gene (phe) and alkane monooxygenase gene

In this work, the first-ever membrane-based single unit operation that enables gravity driven, on-demand separation of various oil-water mixtures is developed. Using this methodology, the on-demand separation of free oil and water, oil-in-water emulsions, and water-in-oil emulsions is demonstrated, with
