Effects of Biostimulation and Bioaugmentation on The Degradation of Pyrene in Soil
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The use of petroleum based products is very widespread in our modern society. Automobiles are powered by gasoline, homes are heated with oil and industrial and manufacturing activities derive energy from various hydrocarbon fuels. The transport of petroleum products by sea, rail, tanker trucks and pipelines is common and unavoidable. Releases of petroleum hydrocarbons to the environment occur during their extraction, processing, transportation, storage and use which often result in a serious and widespread contamination of the environment (soil, water and air) threatening human health and the economy [1-3].

Assessment of Bioaugmentation and Biostimulation Efficiencies for Petroleum Contaminated Sediments
The effectiveness of hydrocarbon bioremediation strategies approaches is depending on various issues such as type and volume of pollution, nutrient accessibility in the target ecosystem, time, biodiversity of microorganisms, pollutant bioavailability and many others. In the present research, laboratory studies were carried out on the bioremediation of coastal sediment samples ...
متن کاملEffect of biostimulation and bioaugmentation on degradation of polyurethane buried in soil.
This work investigated biostimulation and bioaugmentation as strategies for removing polyurethane (PU) waste in soil. Soil microcosms were biostimulated with the PU dispersion agent "Impranil" and/or yeast extract or were bioaugmented with PU-degrading fungi, and the degradation of subsequently buried PU was determined. Fungal communities in the soil and colonizing buried PU were enumerated on ...
متن کاملComparative bioremediation of soils contaminated with diesel oil by natural attenuation, biostimulation and bioaugmentation.
Bioremediation of diesel oil in soil can occur by natural attenuation, or treated by biostimulation or bioaugmentation. In this study we evaluated all three technologies on the degradation of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) in soil. In addition, the number of diesel-degrading microorganisms present and microbial activity as indexed by the dehydrogenase assay were monitored. Soils contaminate...
متن کاملBioremediation of Soil Contaminated by Diesel Oil
Were evaluated natural attenuation, biostimulation and bioaugmentation on the degradation of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) in soils contaminated with diesel oil. Bioaugmentation showed the greatest degradation in the light (C12 C23) fractions (72.7%) and heavy (C23 C40) fractions of TPH (75.2%) and natural attenuation was more effective than biostimulation. The greatest dehydrogenase activ...
متن کاملEffect of remediation strategy on crude oil biodegradation kinetics and half life times in shoreline sediment samples
Bioremediation, the process by which microorganisms degrade organic compounds to non-toxic or less toxic substances, has been widely used for cleanup of coastal ecosystems after oil spills. In this study, the hydrocarbon degradation rate and half lives in three bioremediation strategies (natural attenuation, biostimulation, and bioaugmentation) were compared in weathered crude oil (WCO) contami...
