Bacteria that are capable of degrading polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were enumerated by incorporating soil and water dilutions together with fine particles of phenanthrene, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, into an agarose overlayer and pouring the mixture over a mineral salts underlayer. The phenanthrene-degrading bacteria embedded in the overlayer were recognized by a halo of clearing in ...

Kerosene is the colorless liquid and slightly heavier than gasoline thatspecific odor removes after evaporation. Soil and underground water source arecontaminated with different pollutants such as petroleum hydrocarbons. These pollutantshave various negative environmental effects on soil and surrounding environment. Theaim of this research is to understand the effect of kerosene pollution on tw...

limitation of water resources and necessity in profitable production, and consequentlyproductivity enhancement has taken crop production by means of unconventional water into consideration. inthis study, the effect of different levels of zeolite and nitrifying bacteria were investigated on nitrogenouscompounds absorption in a closed system of carp breeding with alfalfa. treatments of zeolites a...

the high cost of fertilizers in farming systems, soil pollution and degradation of soil are factors that caused to full use of available renewable nutrient sources of plant (organic and biological) with optimal application of fertilizers in order to maintain fertility, structure, biological activity, exchange capacity and water-holding capacity of the water in soil. therefore, in recent years, ...

water and soil pollution by human pathogenic bacteria draw attention of many researchers. duration of bacterial survival for reach to the soil and water resources is very important. current study focused on the effects of caco3 and caso4 compounds on escherichia coli survival. using caco3, caso4 compounds and fine sand particles (
