The ability of the NAR-2 bacterial consortium, consisting of A1, C1, and L17, to degrade the azo dye model, Remazol Black B (RBB), was studied in an upflow packed-bed reactor for continuous sequential microaerophilic–aerobic batch operations. Continuous decolourisation was performed in a borosilicat...
