Abstract: A mixed microbial community enriched in a chemostat in presence of pen tachlorophenol (PCP) as sole source of carbon and energy comprised four bacterial strains, identified as Pseudomonas sp, (one strain) and Serratia marcescens (three strains). The bacterial community applied for the treatment of tannery effluent in a suspended culture and sequential bioreactor indicated the reduction of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) (68 per cent),sulphide (50 per cent ), total phenol (78 per cent), and pentachlorophenol (65 per cent) in sequential bioreactor.
