3.5.2.15 | agriculture |
cleavage of the s-triazine ring is an important step in the mineralization of s-triazine compounds, extensive used as herbicides or pesticides in agriculture worldwide, and hence in their complete removal from environment |

3.5.2.15 | environmental protection |
cyanuric acid hydrolases are of industrial importance because of their use in aquatic recreational facilities to remove cyanuric acid, a stabilizer for the chlorine. Degradation of excess cyanuric acid is necessary to maintain chlorine disinfection in the waters |

3.5.2.15 | environmental protection |
di- and trichloroisocyanuric acids are widely used as water disinfection agents, but cyanuric acid accumulates with repeated additions and must be removed to maintain free hypochlorite for disinfection. The study describes the development of methods for using a cyanuric acid-degrading enzyme contained within nonliving cells that are encapsulated within a porous silica matrix |

3.5.2.15 | environmental protection |
di- and trichloroisocyanuric acids are widely used as water disinfection agents, but cyanuric acid accumulates with repeated additions and must be removed to maintain free hypochlorite for disinfection. The study describes the development of methods for using a cyanuric acid-degrading enzyme contained within nonliving cells that are encapsulated within a porous silica matrix. The optimum enzyme for these purposes was found to be the cyanuric acid hydrolase from Moorella thermoacetica. A water-recycling, flowthrough system is constructed and shown to be effective in removing 10 mM M cyanuric acid, a concentration well above that encountered in real-world disinfection processes |
