Abstract
The adverse effects of high concentration of phenolic compounds in wastewater on aquatic organisms are a major environmental issue. In recent years, treating organic wastewater by algae has attracted attention because this treatment is economic, efficient and eco-friendly. Here we review the use of algae in removing phenol and phenolic derivatives. We discuss phenolic wastewater treatment, mechanisms of adsorption and degradation, and effects of excessive phenols on algal cells.
