Improvement of Biogas Production by Bioaugmentation [PDF]
Biogas production technologies commonly involve the use of natural anaerobic consortia of microbes. The objective of this study was to elucidate the importance of hydrogen in this complex microbial food chain. Novel laboratory biogas reactor prototypes were designed and constructed.

Bioaugmentation of Soil Contaminated with Azoxystrobin [PDF]
The presence of fungicides in the natural environment, either resulting from deliberate actions or not, has become a serious threat to many ecosystems, including soil. This can be prevented by taking appropriate measures to clear the environment of organic contamination, including fungicides.

Bioremediation approaches for oil contaminated soils in extremely high-mountainous conditions
Development of methods for bioremediation of soils contaminated with petroleum products is one of the most urgent tasks of our time. This task is more difficult to perform in high-mountainous landscapes, at an altitude of more than 4 000 m a.s.l ...

Modelling bioaugmentation: Engineering intervention in anaerobic digestion
Bioaugmentation – the addition of specific microorganisms to microbial consortia to obtain specific functions - is a promising method to improve the performance of sub-optimal anaerobic digestion processes and recover methane production.

An investigation of mono-chlorophenol degradation and the bioaugmentation of activated sludge by two pseudomonas putida species [PDF]
The degradation of all three mono-chlorophenols by two Pseudomonas putida species, A(a) and CPI, was investigated Pseudomonas putida A(a) metabolised 4-chlorophenol to completion via the meta-cleavage pathway but the degradation of 2- and 3- chlorophenol

Background Bioaugmentation aims to use the capacities of specific bacterial strains inoculated into sites to enhance pollutant biodegradation. Bioaugmentation results have been mixed, which has been attributed to poor inoculant growth and survival in the
