Bioremediation of a Crude Oil - Polluted Soil by Application of Fertilizers
Oil pollution is a worldwide threat to the environment and the remediation of oil-contaminated soils, sediments and water is a major challenge for environmental research. Bioremediation is a useful method for soil remediation, if pollutant concentrations are moderate and non-biological techniques are not economical. The bioremediation consists strategy of actively aerating the soils and adding ...
متن کاملImmobilization of Microbes for Bioremediation of Crude Oil Polluted Environments: A Mini Review
Petroleum hydrocarbons are the most common environmental pollutants in the world and oil spills pose a great hazard to terrestrial and marine ecosystems. Oil pollution may arise either accidentally or operationally whenever oil is produced, transported, stored and processed or used at sea or on land. Oil spills are a major menace to the environment as they severely damage the surrounding ecosys...
متن کاملBioremediation of crude oil polluted soil as affected by sewage-sludge
During the Persian Gulf war in 1991 around eight million barrels of crude oil were spilled into water. This caused a large volume of contaminated water has to move to land in particular, Khuzestan's soil. A real danger of oil pollution would be an environmental calamity, and therefore, reclamation practice on the spoil soil area to expel the oil is essential. Bioremediation methods will be surv...
متن کاملBioremediation of Heavy Crude Oil Contamination
Crude oil contamination is one of the major environmental concerns and it has drawn interest from researchers and industries. Heavy oils contain 24-64% saturates and aromatics, 14-39% resins and 11-45% asphaltene. Resins and asphaltenes mainly consist of naphthenic aromatic hydrocarbons with alicyclic chains which are the hardest to degrade. Crude oil biodegradation process, with its minimal en...
متن کاملEnvironmental Management : - Bioremediation of Polluted Environment
Environmental biotechnology employs the application of genetic engineering to improve efficiency and cost, which are central to the future of widespread exploitation of microorganisms to reduce the environmental burden of toxic substances. It is hoped that in future, the application of microorganisms coupled with genetic engineering techniques, will make a major contribution to improve the qual...
