The examination of the microbial communities from different soils was conducted by means of a polyphasic approach utilising traditional culturing methods, taxonomic analysis (DGGE) and potential metabolic activity assays (Biolog).

The results indicated a considerable enrichment effect of the microbial community in comparison with the original soil community. Taxonomic analysis of Biolog wells i

Heavy metal soil pollution from anthropogenic sources such as historical use of fertilizers, poor waste disposal, and spills from industries are a serious environmental problem.

Soil remediation can clean heavy metal polluted soil to a level that is sustainable for the environment and the organisms that inhabit it. Many conventional soil remediation techniques can be very expensive, and resource and energy intensive, making them p

Because of their great persistence in the environment, toxicity and carcinogenicity, these compounds are on the list of priority pollutants. The most sustainable way to remove these compounds from soil without damaging its ecological structure and function is bioremediation.

Abstract:
La bioremediació és una tecnologia sostenible que ha emergit en les últimes dècades com a alternativa rendible per a la descontaminació d’aqüífers amb dissolvents clorats, en comparació amb les tècniques fisicoquímiques més convencionals. Aquest tractament biològic de la contaminació utilitza el metabolisme dels bacteris per degradar els contaminants i detoxificar les aigües subterrànies. Però, tot i que aquests mecanismes s’han investigat àmpliament, l’exitosa implementació al camp és encara limitada. Per aquest motiu, aquesta tesi ha tingut com a objectiu aprofundir el coneixement sobre els

Abstract:
<p>X-ray fluorescence (XRF) detection of heavy metals is a cost- and time-effective method for investigation of polluted areas. Compared to laboratory analysis, XRF analysis is limited by high detection limits and uncertainties in some situations. Preparation of samples is known to affect the results of measurements.</p><p>The purpose of this thesis is to bring a deeper understanding of how different factors affect the results of XRF-analysis. A large number of measurements have been made with the instruments Niton XLt 700 and Niton Xli 700. Results from measurements of lead, zinc and copper h

Abstract:
Célèbres depuis l'accident de Seveso en 1976, les dioxines/furanes (PCCD/F) restent, malgré une forte baisse de leurs émissions, un sujet de préoccupation permanent en France et dans le monde. Le rémanence de ces composés organochlorés dans le sol et le risque toxique qu'ils représentent pour l'homme et l'environnement font que la gestion et la remédiation des sols contaminés par les PCDD/F sont devenues une priorité des industriels, législateurs et scientifiques. La phytoremédiation compte parmi les méthodes émergentes de dépollution des sols contaminés en raison de son adéquation avec le dév
