concentration in the media. However, increase in the concentration of mercury
showed negligible changes in the removal of resorcinol.
When resorcinol removal optimization studies were done with external aeration
by MBC in presence of chromium (VI) and lead or chromium (VI) and mercury, the
maximum removal efficiency was found to be 90.8%. It could also be inferred from
