Book excerpt: An international group of researchers and engineers discuss using natural attenuation to degrade contaminants and thereby remediate soils and groundwater. This volume describes laboratory studies and field demonstrations in support of subsurface remediation at military, manufactured gas plant, landfill, petroleum spill, and other sites. The contaminants of concern include benzene, toluene, ethyl-benzene, and xylenes (BTEX); naphthalene; trichloroethene; trichlorethane; and perchloroethylene. Analytical methods for assessing the potential for natural attenuation (passive bioremediation) at a given site and for confirming and documenting efficacy are discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The potential for anaerobic degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PARs) in contaminated harbor sediments was investigated. PARs were anaerobically oxidize to carbon dioxide in petroleum contaminated sediments from San Diego Bay, Tampa Bay and Boston Harbor. Studies with molybdate, a specific inhibitor of sulfate reduction, as well as investigations in which sulfate levels were varied, demonstrated that PAR oxidation was coupled to sulfate reduction. Pristine harbor sediments did not have a significant potential for anaerobic PAH oxidation, but could be adapted for PAH oxidation by exposure to PAhs or inoculation with PAH-oxidizing microrganisms. Exposure of pristine sediments to PAH resulted in the growth of PAH-oxidizing microorganisms. PARs added to sediments as part of complex fuel mixtures were degraded. The alkanes in the complex fuel mixtures were also anaerobically degraded under sulfate reducing conditions. In estuarine sediments in which concentrations of sulfate were low, PAR and alkane degradation could be stimulated with the addition of sulfate. These studies have demonstrated for the first time that PARs can be oxidized under the anaerobic conditions that predominat in most contaminated harbor sediments and suggest that anaerobic strategies for.

Download or read book Microbial Action on Hydrocarbons written by Vivek Kumar and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-08 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book discusses ways to overcome the side effects of using hydrocarbon-based products as energy sources. Hydrocarbons produce raw crude oil waste of around 600,000 metric tons per annum, with a range of uncertainty of 200,000 metric tons per year. The various chapters in this book focus on approaches to reduce these wastes through the application of potential microbes, in a process called bioremediation. The book is a one-stop reference resource on the methods, mechanisms and application of the bio-composites, in the laboratory and field. Focusing on resolving a very pressing environmental issue, it not only provides details of existing challenges, but also offers deeper insights into the possibility of solving problems using hydrocarbon bioremediation.

This book was released on 2015-05-15 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biodegradation mediated by indigenous microbial communities is the ultimate fate of the majority of oil hydrocarbon that enters the marine environment. The aim of this Research Topic is to highlight recent advances in our knowledge of the pathways and controls of microbially-catalyzed hydrocarbon degradation in marine ecosystems, with emphasis on the response of microbial communities to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. In this Research Topic, we encouraged original research and reviews on the ecology of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria, the rates and mechanisms of biodegradation, and the bioremediation of discharged oil under situ as well as near in situ conditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With oil spills occurring worldwide, much media and practical attention has been given in recent years to the rapidly maturing field of hydrocarbon bioremediation, particularly with application to marine spills. Hydrocarbon contamination of soil and groundwater, although less visible, is even more widespread and has provided the background for the numerous studies presented in this book, in addition to those devoted to shoreline spills. Chapters address a wide variety of theory and practice and cover important subjects such as biofiltration, natural attenuation, surfactants, and the use of in situ bioventing compared to soil venting. This unique book represents the collective global experience of practitioners and researchers in North America, Europe, Africa, and Asia. It describes experiences in tying laboratory studies to field applications. Nowhere else can anyone involved in hydrocarbon bioremediation find more up-to-date, relevant information on field experience using the various techniques and combinations of techniques in remediating hydrocarbons by biological means.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enhanced anaerobic biodegradation of ground water contaminated by fuel hydrocarbons has been evaluated at a field demonstration conducted at the Naval Weapons Station, Seal Beach, California. This demonstration included establishing three different remediation zones in situ: one zone was augmented with sulfate, one was augmented with sulfate and nitrate, and the third was not augmented. This enables a comparison of hydrocarbon biodegradation under sulfate-reducing, sequential denitrifying/sulfate-reducing, and methanogenic conditions, respectively. In general, the results from the field demonstration are: (1) Certain fuel hydrocarbons were removed preferentially over others, but the order of preference depends on the geochemical conditions; and (2) in the zones that were augmented with sulfate and/or nitrate, the added electron acceptors were consumed quickly, indicating that enhancement via electron acceptor injection accelerates the biodegradation process. More specifically, in the sulfate-reducing zone, sulfate was utilized with an apparent first-order rate coefficient of approximately 0.1/day. In the combined denitrifying/sulfate- reducing zone, nitrate was utilized preferentially over sulfate, with an apparent first-order rate coefficient of 0.1-0.6/day. With regard to the aromatic BTEX hydrocarbons, toluene was preferentially removed under intrinsic conditions; biodegradation of benzene was slow if it occurred at all; augmentation with sulfate preferentially stimulated biodegradation of o-xylene; and ethylbenzene appeared recalcitrant under sulfate-reducing conditions but readily degradable under denitrifying conditions.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spills of petroleum hydrocarbons are major concern because of effects on marine life & beaches. In Canada most of offshore exploration takes place in Arctic or in areas where water tem peratures are low. Laboratory study made over 11 month period measuring rate of degradation of 3 hydrocarbon mixtures under simulated conditions of a marine sediment at temperatures of 15, 10 & 5 C. Aim was to predict rates of degradation at tempera tures below 5 C. Mixtures used were a crude oil, a Bunker C oil and a condensate. Low concentrations (1-3%) were mixed with sand & incorpated into sediment in which a flow of sea-water was maintained. Total counts of aerobic bacteria remained high.

Download or read book Bioremediation of Petroleum Hydrocarbons in Cold Regions written by Dennis M. Filler and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-02-21 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide to bioremediation in cold regions is designed to aid environmental practitioners, industry, and regulators in the remediation of petroleum spills and contaminated sites in cold regions. Remediation design and technology used in temperate climates does not necessarily work in cold climates, and cleanup takes longer due to shorter treatment seasons, sub-freezing temperatures, ground freezing and thawing, and limited bioactivity. Environmental engineers and scientists from eight countries working in the polar regions combine their experiences and expertise with petroleum contamination to write this book. It contains in-depth discussions on regulations, freezing and frozen ground, identification and adaptations of cold-tolerant bacteria, contaminant transport in cold soils and permafrost, temperature effects on biodegradation, analytical methods, treatability studies, and nutritional requirements for bioremediation. Emphasis is given to practical and effective bioremediation methods for application in cold regions. Emerging technologies are also discussed.
