Petroleum biodegradation in marine environments.
Petroleum-based products are the major source of energy for industry and daily life. Petroleum is also the raw material for many chemical products such as plastics, paints, and cosmetics. The transport of petroleum across the world is frequent, and the amounts of petroleum stocks in developed countries are enormous. Consequently, the potential for oil spills is significant, and research on the ...
متن کاملBiodegradation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Petroleum Contaminated Soils
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are a class of potentially hazardous chemicals of environmental and health concern. PAHs are one of the most prevalent groups of contaminants found in soil. Biodegradation of complex hydrocarbon usually requires the cooperation of more than single specie. In this research biotreatment of PAH (phenanthrene) was studied in a solid-phase reactor using indigenou...
متن کاملBiodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in hypersaline environments
Literature on hydrocarbon degradation in extreme hypersaline media presents studies that point to a negative effect of salinity increase on hydrocarbonoclastic activity, while several others report an opposite tendency. Based on information available in the literature, we present a discussion on the reasons that justify these contrary results. Despite the fact that microbial ability to metaboli...
متن کاملBiodegradation potential of petroleum hydrocarbons by bacteria and mixed bacterial consortium isolated from contaminated sites
The aim of this study was to isolate, characterize, and evaluate the potential of petroleum hydrocarbon (PHC)-degrading bacterial strains from oil-contaminated soil in the Meerut region. Among 59 oil-degrading bacterial cultures isolated from the oil-contaminated soil samples, 1 Bacillus species, 2 species of Pseudomonas, and 1 species of Micrococcus, identified on the basis of biochemical and ...
متن کاملbiodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in soil
biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons (20 g/kg dw soil) was investigated in 3 media, differing in the kind of petroleum fractions. in the laboratory experiments, during 5 months, the activities of petroleum hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms and dehydrogenase activity of soil was determined. gas chromatographic analysis showed the biological decontaminations for gas oil, kerosene and synth...
