Abstract:

The Nigerian economy has relied heavily on crude oil production since independence in 1960. As a consequence, it has seen an influx of multinational petroleum companies with oil exploration and associated activities having significant environmental impacts, particularly oil leakage and spillage into soil and the overall degradation of the ecosystem in the Niger Delta area. This study aims to find a viable solution to the remediation of polluted soil by comparing two thermal remediation techniques, namely microwave pyrolysis and traditional pyrolysis, which has been investigated using a Gray-Ki

Abstract:

Oil spills are a universal threat impacting local, national and world communities alike. Bioremediation that is natural, efficient, economical and safe is the best solution for protecting the environment from oil related damages. In this study, motor oil degrading bacteria were isolated from oil-contaminated soil samples from a suburban Atlanta, Georgia community. Mineral salt broth containing 1 Ow-40 motor oil as the sole carbon source was used to isolate motor oil degrading bacteria. Motor oil tolerant and metabolizing bacteria were identified using morphological and biochemical tests. Two b

Abstract:

Thermal desorption (TD), a remediation method used to remove hydrocarbons from contaminated soils, may cause changes in soil properties that threaten soil function and plant productivity. The goal of this research is to better understand the effect that TD treatment has on soils intended for agricultural use. A series of soil phosphorus (P) sorption and desorption experiments were conducted on soils before and after TD treatment to determine P availability for plant uptake and risk for run-off. TD-treated soils retained more P, likely due to mineral transformations of Fe- and Al-oxides. In add

Petroleum contamination of sandy soils is a severe environmental problem in Libya but relatively little work has been carried out to optimize the bioremediation of such soils. The purpose of this thesis was to determine the potential for bioremediation 0 hydrocarbon-contaminated soil obtained from the Zawia refinery field, Libya. Initial work involved chemical and microbial characterisation of the contaminated soil. Chemical analysis revealed high levels of petroleum contamination (up to 26532 mg TPH per kg soil) and that the soil was contaminated with a mixture of crude oil an, diesel oil. Fi

One of the main limitations to the bioremediation of oil-contaminated marine sediments is the low hydrocarbons bioavailability.

Abstract:

A greenhouse lysimeter experiment was performed to evaluate the use of in-situ bioremediation and phyto-remediation to reduce mineral oil concentrations in a weathered contaminated soil. The hypotheses for the study were (1) a combination of microbial- and phyto-remediation would yield a best remediation strategy, and (2) the addition of low levels (10 mg/L) of a biosurfactant would stimulate and increase the rate of remediation by increasing the bioavailability of the mineral oil in the soil. The results indicate, on average, a higher rate of mineral oil removal occurred in planted lysimeter

Crude oil is of economic importance to any nation. However its poor management and disposal method has resulted in oil spillage and ground contamination. Most emphasis on crude oil contamination on the environment has been on surface and ground water pollution, as well as plants and animals with little or no attention paid to the engineering properties of the contaminated soil. This research is thus aimed at investigating the effect of light crude oil contamination on the geotechnical properties of kaolinite clay soil.

It has been demonstrated that vegetable oil can be used as a nontoxic, inexpensive, and environmentally-friendly solvent to remove PAH from contaminated soils. Results showed that more than 72% PAH at soil/oil ratio of 1:1 (m/v) was removed from high (200 mg/Kg) and low (50 mg/Kg) PAH contaminated soil with the equilibrium time 24 h. It was estimated that soybean oil can remove more than 70% PAH from 4200 mg/Kg cont

Abstract:

碩士<br>中華醫事科技大學<br>生物安全衛生研究所<br>99<br>This paper aims at discussing the influence of the quantity of SOM (soil organic matter) on the biodegradation of TPHd in diesel-polluted soil. The target pollutant is diesel oil, called TPHd thereof, with the initial concentration of 4000 mg/kg. The soil experimented are Gueiren Soil and Peat. Soils are differentiated with the quantity of SOM. They are: Gr2 (SOM 2.2%), Gpeat5 (SOM 4.6%), Gpeat10 (SOM 8.7%), and Gpeat20 (SOM 17.9%). The soil experimented are anticepticized with methyl alcohol and then separated as experimental group and control group. The e

Abstract:

Remediation of petroleum hydrocarbons in polar environments is more costly and logistically and technically more difficult than corresponding temperate and tropical contaminated sites. Bioremediation and in-situ chemical oxidation (ICO) are possible strategies which may overcome the financial and technical challenges associated with polar-region site remediation. ICO involves introducing reactive chemicals to contaminated soils so that organic contaminants such as petroleum hydrocarbons are oxidised to environmentally innocuous compounds, while bioremediation relies on microbial activit

M.Tech. (Operations Management)<br>The field of study is of a multi-disciplinary nature relating to chemistry, microbiology, electrical engineering, soil technology and legislation dealing with different aspects of soil, water and environmental contamination in South Africa The relevant basic principles involved as applicable to the problem being researched are discussed in the dissertation. The reader is introduced to the statement ofthe problem in Chapter 1. A study was carried out of research projects which were conducted elsewhere in the world with regard to oil pollution and the remediati
