Trichlorofluoromethane (R11), dichlorodifluoromethane (R12), 1,1,2-trichlorotriflu oroethane (R113), difluoromethane (R32) and VC were bio degradable in compost under anaerobic conditions, probably by methanogenic bacteria. The anaerobic decomposition products of R11 were dichlorofluoromethane (R21 ) and chlo rofluoromethane (R31). The degradation product of R12 was chlorodifluoromethane (R22). R11 and its degradation prod ucts have the inhibiting effects of the R12 degradation under anaerobic conditions. The partly halogenated hydrocarbon R22 and VC were degraded preferentially under aerobic con ditions in marl, probably by methanotrophic bacteria. Under aerobic conditions R22 and VC have inhibited the biodegra dation of methane by methanotrophic bacteria.en1096-3669Waste Management & Research19984330341Sage Publ.http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/CFCsH-CFCstrichlorofluoromethaneR11dichlorofluoromethaneR21chlorofluoromethaneR31difluoromethaneR32chlorodifluoromethaneR22vinyl chlorideVCtrichlorotrifluoroethaneR113anaerobic and aerobic biodegradationcompostmarllandfilllandfill gasLFGcometabolisminhibition competitive inhibitionmethanogenic bacteriamethanotrophic bacteriaIngenieurwissenschaftenBiodegradation of volatile CFCs, H-CFCs and VC in compost and marlJournal Articleurn:nbn:de:gbv:830-8821889210.15480/882.155111420/155410.1177/0734242X980160040510.15480/882.1551Dieser Beitrag ist mit Zustimmung des Rechteinhabers aufgrund einer (DFG geförderten) Allianz- bzw.
