Abstract:

AbstractPetroleum industry activities worldwide have caused pollution and resulted in environmental degradation. Microorganisms with the potential to reduce pollutant levels by degradation processes have been reported, and bacteria are among such organisms. The first study on bacterial degradation in Colombia was published in 1996. The study isolated bacteria belonging to the Pseudomonas genus from hydrocarbon-polluted sediments. Since then, different reports on degrading bacteria have been published. The objective of this systematic review is to identify and analyze all the studies on hydroca

Objective: One of the major problems the world is facing nowadays is hydrocarbons pollution due to its detrimental spillage effects on water and soil during transportation. Therefore, assessing and identifying hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria will contribute to the biodegradation of the toxic compounds. Methods: Pure bacterial cultures were isolated from two different locations, Petrol Depot R57 and Sasol Truck Stop. The soils were excavated from cyclohexane-contaminated areas and then transported to the laboratory for biological analysis. The ability of the bacterial isolates to use cyclohexane

5 highly efficient hydrocarbon-degrading mixed bacteria were obtained from the petroleum-contaminated soil samples by the traditional method of enrichment and acclimation. The KL9-1 consortium had a wide temperature tolerance range and higher hydrocarbon degrading ability. The degradation rate of thin oil and heavy oil was up to 43.27% and 20.09% respectively through 7 d at 45oC. After several times of isolation and purification, three dominant strains with the capability of hydrocarbon-degrading were obtained, and their petroleum degradation rates were all over 30%.

Abstract:

Hydrocarbons are ubiquitous in the ocean, where alkanes such as pentadecane and heptadecane can be found even in waters minimally polluted with crude oil. Populations of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria, which are responsible for the turnover of these compounds, are also found throughout marine systems, including in unpolluted waters. These observations suggest the existence of an unknown and widespread source of hydrocarbons in the oceans. Here, we report that strains of the two most abundant marine cyanobacteria,ProchlorococcusandSynechococcus, produce and accumulate hydrocarbons, predominantl

Petroleum hydrocarbon-polluted environments contain massive diversity of microbes capable of transforming or reducing hydrocarbon concentrations, and this has consequently led to an interest in the cultivation screening for microbial potentials to remediate petroleum hydrocarbon-polluted lands. Conversely, the reliance singly on culturing approach for the discovery of various hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria without probing for its hydrocarbon degradative capabilities has now become rampant in some research communities, and in most cases may not be justifiable.

Abstract Twenty-three hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria strains were isolated from gas station leaking-contaminated groundwater located in the Southern Amazon, Brazil. Based on hydrocarbon (diesel, hexadecane, benzene, toluene and xylene) degradation ability, two strains were selected for further study. The amplification and sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene showed that these two strains belonged to the genus Bacillus (Bacillus sp. L26 and Bacillus sp. L30). GC-MS analysis showed that strain L30 was the most effective in degrading n-alkane (C10-C27) from diesel after 7 days of cultivation in minera

Abstract One of the mitigations in dealing with the problem of waste oil is by using bioremediation techniques. Bioremediation techniques use biological agents that are safe for the environment and more cost-effective. The method commonly developed in bioremediation techniques is the immobilization of bacteria using plant fibers. The plant fiber used is ketapang leaf (Terminalia catappa) because it has physico-chemical properties that can be used in bioremediation. This study aims to analyze the ability of T. catappa as a living medium for bacteria degrading oil waste and analyze the effect of
