Anaerobic degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are among the most important contaminants of groundwater. The 2- and 3-ring PAHs are of particular concern because they are water soluble in the 1-200 mug/l range and are transported with the groundwater over significant distances. Anaerobic degradation of PAH has been demonstrated in several microcosm studies with nitrate, ferric iron, or sulfate as elec...

Availability and Biotreatment of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Sediments

This work applied new investigative techniques to assess the locations, distributions, and associations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in dredged harbor sediment. Dredged materials from the Milwaukee Confined Disposal Facility were collected and homogenized to provide sufficient sample for four month bioslurry treatment testing and for PAH analyses on various size and density fracti...

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Offshore Surface Sediments of the Northern Persian Gulf, Bushehr Province

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are classified as an important category of semi-volatile and persistent organic pollutants. They cause environmental problems due to their toxicity and accumulation in sediments. In this research, offshore sediments of 19 stations in 8 transects of the Persian Gulf in Bushehr province were studied to assess the sources of PAHs. The extraction and clean up...

Anaerobic degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and alkanes in petroleum-contaminated marine harbor sediments.

Although polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have usually been found to persist under strict anaerobic conditions, in a previous study an unusual site was found in San Diego Bay in which two PAHs, naphthalene and phenanthrene, were oxidized to carbon dioxide under sulfate-reducing conditions. Further investigations with these sediments revealed that methylnaphthalene, fluorene, and fluorant...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in San Francisco Estuary sediments

The objectives of this study were to examine surface sediments in the San Francisco Estuary for PAH composition over a range of spatial and temporal scales to determine distributions, trends, and possible sources. Surface sediments (top 5 cm) were collected at 26 sites from 1993 to 2001. The mean total PAH (SPAH) concentration in sediments was spatially distributed as Central Bay (230 mg/kg TOC...
