The main problem which causes the most damage to the Blue whale’s population comes from whaling.

alkaline environment presented a higher degradation rate for the whole duration of 80 minutes than that of the initial pH (pH8.9) and acidic pH (pH4). Some studies show that the fastest phenol degradation occurred at pH 12.9. Furthermore, the highest COD removal in the study of the treatment of penicillin formulation effluent by ozone process at pH 12. [27] In general, the degradation of phenol always happens by both direct and indirect mechanisms, which are competitive and dependent of process…

single-celled organisms (like plankton) at the base.
