Abstract:
AbstractFossil fuels are used throughout the United States Antarctic Program. Accidental releases of petroleum hydrocarbons are the leading source of environmental contamination. Since 1999 McMurdo Station has been the site of the most extensive environmental monitoring programme in Antarctica. Nearly 2500 surface soil samples were collected from 1999–2007 to determine the spatial “footprint” of petroleum hydrocarbons. Total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) concentrations were measured using a high-resolution capillary gas chromatographic method with flame ionization detection. Three distinct TPH

Abstract:
Hydrocarbons are compounds produced as a result of the activities of the petroleum industry, which can pollute the soil and waters. Due to the amount of waste, biochar from agricultural waste could potentially be used as a soil amendment agent for hydrocarbon contamination. The high lignocellulose in oil palm shells and empty bunches makes them potential raw materials for biochar. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of biochar application on petroleum-contaminated soil to reduce Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH) levels. In this study, the dosage of biochar was added to the soil

Contamination of groundwater and soil by petroleum hydrocarbons is a widespread environmental problem. In order to quantify the potential of natural attenuation of groundwater at a petroleum contaminated site. The total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) concentrations of 11 rounds were collected during the 1 year monitoring period, and the mass flux technique is used to calculate the attenuation rates. The calculated attenuation rates are between 0.0046-0.0064d-1, which indicating the time to achieve the remediation goal for the contamination site is possible within 3 years by natural attenuation a

Biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbon is a complex process that depends on the nature and on the amount of the hydrocarbon present. Many microbial organisms have been shown to possess the capacity to biodegrade various components of hydrocarbon. Hence this study was aimed at assessing the potential of bacterial species isolated from oilfield wastewater to biodegrade total petroleum hydrocarbon in crude oil. Oilfield wastewater was collected from an onshore oil production platform. Standard procedures were observed during collection and microbiological analysis of wastewater samples. Bacteria

Due to their extensive use, petroleum hydrocarbons are among the most common groundwater contaminants. Compared to the traditional methods of physical pumping of contamination from the aquifer and subsequent treatment (i.e., pump and treat), bioremediation is an economically cost-effective technology. The aim of this remediation approach is to transform biologically contaminants, most often by microbiological activity, into non-toxic compounds. More precisely, it is an active remediation process that involves biostimulation (increase of aquifer oxygenation, addition of nutrients) and/or bioaug
