Long-term acclimation of anaerobic sludges for high-rate methanogenesis from LCFA [PDF]

, 2014
Inhibition of methanogens by long chain fatty acids (LCFA) and the low numbers of LCFA-degrading bacteria are limitations to exploit biogas production from fat-rich wastewaters.

Analysis into the viability of pea gravel as a diffusing material for biostimulation systems in petroleum hydrocarbon‐contaminated soils

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Injecting biostimulatory solutions around underground storage tanks (UGSTs) promotes petroleum hydrocarbon (PHC) bioremediation without the use of intrusive infrastructure. Yet, it is unclear how the interaction between porous bedding material (i.e., pea gravel) and biostimulatory solutions impacts PHC biodegradation rates.

From Stillage to Sustainable Energy: Microbe‐Enabled Biofuel Innovations

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
To fulfill the ever increasing energy demand, the world is overexploiting fossil fuel resources owing to environmental consequences that enforce the global shift toward renewable energy. Ethanol is emerging as a key biofuel; however, its production generates large volumes of stillage.

The role of cell bioaugmentation and gene bioaugmentation in the remediation of co-contaminated soils. [PDF]

Environmental Health Perspectives, 2002
Soils co-contaminated with metals and organics present special problems for remediation. Metal contamination can delay or inhibit microbial degradation of organic pollutants such that for effective in situ biodegradation, bioaugmentation is necessary. We monitored the degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) or 3-chlorobenzoate (3-CB) in ...

Highly Efficient Biodegradation of Postconsumer Polylactic Acid Waste: The First Report on Priestia aryabhattai SNRUSAC3 and a Newly Isolated Bacillus sp. SNRUSAC1

International Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The increasing use of polylactic acid (PLA) for single‐use packaging has led to a growing accumulation of bioplastic waste. This study presents a comprehensive approach for enhancing the degradation of postconsumer PLA packaging waste, beginning with the isolation, screening, and identification of highly effective bacteria and culminating in the ...

Biotechnological Prospects of Indigenous Oil‐Degrading Bacteria for Engine Oil Remediation and Environmental Restoration in Mekelle, Ethiopia

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study addressed environmental pollution from engine oil discharge in Mekelle’s workshops by isolating and characterizing oil‐degrading bacteria for bioremediation applications. Soil and water samples collected from 10 garage centers were analyzed for physicochemical properties, yielding six isolates: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus cereus ...
