A novel, enzymatic approach has been developed for the removal of phenols from coal-conversion aqueous effluents. Treatment with horseradish peroxidase and hydrogen peroxide precipitates 97 to 99 percent of the phenol in a wide range of p H and phenol concentrations; both model mixtures and real industrial waste-water samples have been treated successfully. Other pollutants, such as polychlorinated biphenyls, can be enzymatically coprecipitated with the phenols.
