Bioremediation of Crude Oil Contaminated Soils Using Surfactants and Hydrocarbonoclastic Bacteria

BIOREMEDIATION OF CRUDE OIL CONTAMINATED SOILS A Black Art or an Engineering Challenge?

A bioremediation of crude oil contaminated soils study was carried out in engineered laboratory biopile systems. In soil bioremediation, biopiles are ‘ex situ’ treatment systems that consist of excavated and aerated contaminated soils amended by addition of biological, mineral or organic material depending upon specific needs. When bacteria are added to the contaminated soil undergoing biologic...

Comprehensive Perspectives in Bioremediation of Crude Oil Contaminated Environments

Microbial Outlook for the Bioremediation of Crude Oil Contaminated Environments

Bioremediation of soil contaminated crude oil by Agaricomycetes

BACKGROUND One of the most important environmental problems is the decontamination of petroleum hydrocarbons polluted soil, particularly in the oil-rich country. Bioremediation is the most effective way to remove these pollutants in the soil. Spent mushroom compost has great ability to decompose lignin-like pollution. The purpose of this study was the bioremediation of soil contaminated with cr...

Development of Three Bacteria Consortium for the Bioremediation of Crude Petroleum-oil in Contaminated Water

We have to developed active microbial consortium that could be of higher degradation of crude oil contaminated groundwater, wastewater aeration pond and biopond at the oil refinery Terengganu Malaysia. Among four isolates that showed good growth only three different isolates (Acinetobacter faecalis WD2, Staphylococcus. sp DD3 and Neisseria elongate TDA4.) were selected based on the growth abili...
