The process of purification of wastewater varies from
one type to another according to the existing wastes.
Petroleum wastewater possesses which are called
Polycyclic aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHS) aromatic and
organic carbonic compounds that are distinguished by
being accumulating on top of each other and not soluble
in water in addition to being heard and carcinogenic,
which causes great damage to the environment. So we
enriched haloalkalothermophilic bacteria under severe
conditions (halophilic-50 ° -ph10). And test fluorine and
pyrene samples in a continuous stirred tank reactor and
test samples individually with bacteria. Furthermore,
put the bacteria with its waste water and thoroughly
test the COD, BOD. The results showed that the
removal of the COD was 97% and the for the BOD was
98%.
