Title | Bioremediation Potential of Petroleum Hydrocarbon-Contaminated Soils Under Tropical Conditions |
Creator | Robert, Francoise M. |
Description | Petroleum hydrocarbon contaminants in soil may leach to the groundwater and pose a threat to the quality of drinking water in Hawaii. This study was initiated to evaluate the competence of tropical bacteria, indigenous to Hawaii, to degrade petroleum hydrocarbons in soil when environmental factors are optimized to favor the growth of microorganisms. In a first experiment, baseline microbial populations were determined in five soils, then the soil was treated with either fertilizer or...
