Simple homocyclic aromatic compounds are extremely abundant in the environment and are derived largely from lignin. Such compounds may enter anaerobic environments and several groups of bacteria, exhibiting diverse energy-yielding mechanisms, have evolved the capacity to overcome the thermodynamic stability
