Subsurface contamination with hydrocarbons as non-aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) is one of the most common environmental impact associated with fuel leak in gas station areas and can represent a health human problem due to ...

The impact of remediation combining chemical oxidation followed by biological treatment on soil matrix and microbial community was studied, of a chronically hydrocarbon contaminated soil sourced from a landfarming treatment. ...

The addition of nutrients and/or soil bulking agents is used in bioremediation to increase microbial activity in contaminated soils. For this purpose, some studies have assessed the effectiveness of vinasse in the ...

Soil is the final destination of several types of residues of anthropic origin, discharged intentionally or accidentally. The environmental impacts resulted from the petroleum industry in the terrestrial ecosystem are a ...

Bioremediation is a biotechnological approach to clean up contaminated soils. Among bioremediation strategies, biostimulation is a simple method which involves the modification of the soil physicochemical conditions in ...

Soil is the recipient of organic pollutants as a consequence of anthropogenic activities. Hydrocarbons are contaminants that pose a risk to human and environmental health. Bioremediation of aging contaminated soils is a ...
