In this study, we explored the possibility of further increasing the efficiency of the culture by repeatedly reusing the cell for biodegradation. The effect of continuous recycling of whole cells of C. tropicalis, for biodegradation of phenol indicated that though with each recycle of the cell there was steady decline in phenol biodegradation the conversion was appreciable for five recycle (similar to 70%) and reached half-life of 50% after eleven recycles. Inhibition due to substrate, recycling of cells and adaptation of residual cell were estimated and an equation derived; which indicated that the cell resilience to phenol increased with each cycle and at the end of eleven recycle adaptation was 68%. However, when the adapted cells were sub cultured and showed marginal increase &lt;10% in biodegradation. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

	Industrial CO2 emissions, characterized by dilute streams and impurity complexity, demand energy-efficient mitigation strategies beyond conventional capture technologies. Here, an integrated CO2 capture and conversion (ICCC) system is reported employing a heterogenized iridium catalyst-hydroxyquinoline-ligated Cp*Ir-Cl immobilized on amine-functionalized silica-that directly converts CO2 from synthetic flue gas containing SOx, NOx, and O2 to formate with 100% selectivity. The catalyst delivers remarkable activity, achieving turnover numbers up to 10,286 within 16 h. Density functional theory reveals that its square pyramidal geometry, induced by the hydroxyquinoline ligand, enhances Ir-N(ring) bond strength and electronic delocalization, thereby improving hydration energy, structural robustness, and catalytic efficiency. Importantly, the catalyst system demonstrates excellent durability, maintaining full activity over five regeneration cycles. Hydrogenation in a 1 M DABCO medium, followed by thermal decomposition of the amine-formate adduct at 150 degrees C, enables efficient lean amine regeneration, allowing subsequent flue gas capture and formate production without performance loss. This closed-loop strategy delivers a sustainable, contaminant-tolerant, and recyclable CO2-to-formate platform with strong promise for scalable industrial deployment.</p>
