Bioremediation of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene contaminated soil in slurry and column reactors.

The bioremediation of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) contaminated soil was performed on a laboratory scale. To compare bioremediation methods, a soil slurry reactor and a soil column reactor were operated and the effects of supplemental sources were investigated. Optimal conditions for the two bioremediation systems for the removal of TNT were obtained. In the soil slurry reactor, about 60% of the...

Improved removal of Trinitrotoluene (TNT) from contaminated soil by inducing aerobic process: kinetic and chemical byproducts

This study describes the biological degradation of TNT by using induced aeration. Three plastic reactors were used. In each reactor 3 kg of soil were used. In order to increase the porosity of the soil, sawdust was added to soil. Textile wastewater treatment plant sludge was also added to soil. TNT at the concentrations of 1000 mg/kg of soil was added thereafter. Rhamnolipid biosurfactant at th...

Fate and stability of 14C-labeled 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene in contaminated soil following microbial bioremediation processes.

Biological treatment of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) in soil rarely results in complete mineralization of the parent compound. More often, the largest proportion of the TNT carbon is incorporated into the soil organic matrix. Therefore, we evaluated the stability of nonextractable residues from various bioremediation processes of 14C-TNT in soils. The extractable amounts of the residual radioact...

Cyclodextrins in Bioremediation of Contaminated Soil

Application of cyclodextrins (CDs) in environmental management has been recently reviewed (1,2). Due to the multiple benefits offered by these complex forming carbohydrates such as improving the solubility, decreasing the volatility, and changing the partition of the contaminants between the soil phases as well as enhancing the bioavailability (toxicity) of the contaminants these additives have...

Bioremediation 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...
