“…Successful anaerobic biodegradation of CF requires sufficient amounts of electron donor and a carbon source that can be used by the CF‐reducing bacteria (Bouwer, Rittmann, & McCarty, ; Cappelletti, Frascari, Zannoni, & Fedi, ; Chung & Rittmann, ; Grostern, Duhamel, Dworatzek, & Edwards, ; Lee et al, ; Shan, Kurtz, Mykytczuk, Trevors, & Freedman, ). Complete CF biodegradation also can occur in aerobic conditions, but it relies on a cometabolic pathway that requires a cosubstrate, dissolved O 2 , and a monooxygenase (Cappelletti et al, ; Rittmann & McCarty, ).…”
