    Chlorinated organic compounds can be degraded in anoxic environments
    through the so called reductive dechlorination. I was working with
    Dehalococcoides degrading chlorinated and brominated ethens (PCE,
    TCE etc.) in aquifers. However biogas fermentors are not necessarily
    the best environments for them, neither such micropollutants are
    good for the methanogens, so I wouldn't combine detoxification and
    methane production.<br>
