Petroleum Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacteria for the Remediation of Oil Pollution Under Aerobic Conditions: A Perspective Analysis. [PDF]

Front Microbiol, 2018
With the sharp increase in population and modernization of society, environmental pollution resulting from petroleum hydrocarbons has increased, resulting in an urgent need for remediation. Petroleum hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria are ubiquitous in nature and can utilize these compounds as sources of carbon and energy.

Petroleum hydrocarbon degradation by isolated mangrove bacteria

Revista Peruana de Biología, 2018
The petroleum hydrocarbon contamination represents a worldwide problem, since its accumulation promotes a serious environmental impact. Thereby, the use of microorganisms, such as those from mangrove micro biota, as degrading agents of various carbon sources is poorly exploited in environmental remediation processes. Thus, this in vitro study evaluated

A Comparative Study on Four Strains of Petroleum Hydrocarbon-degrading Bacteria for the Bioremediation of Petroleum-contaminated Soils [PDF]

Biological Journal of Microorganism, 2021
Introduction: Pollution caused by oil extraction processing stimulates the growth of petroleum hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria. Bioremediation, a process that utilizes the capability of microorganisms to degrade petroleum hydrocarbon compounds, is emerging as a promising technology for the treatment of soil and groundwater contamination.

Bioremediation of Petroleum Hydrocarbons in Seawater: Prospects of Using Lyophilized Native Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacteria [PDF]

Microorganisms, 2021
This work aimed to develop a bioremediation product of lyophilized native bacteria to respond to marine oil spills. Three oil-degrading bacterial strains (two strains of Rhodococcus erythropolis and one Pseudomonas sp.), isolated from the NW Portuguese coast, were selected for lyophilization after biomass growth optimization (tested with alternative ...

Screening and identification of petroleum hydrocarbon degrading bacteria in groundwater of contaminated site [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
In order to effectively repair groundwater pollution and remove petroleum hydrocarbons, two petroleum hydrocarbon degrading bacteria SYT-1 and SYT-2 were isolated from long-term petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated groundwater. The rescreening experiments showed that the degradation rates of SYT-1 and SYT-2 were 65.16 % and 52.52 %, respectively.

Bacterial Communities and Culturable Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degrading Bacteria in Marine Sediments in the Northeastern South China Sea

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Marine oil spill pollution was one of the factors affecting the marine ecology of the northeastern South China Sea (nSCS). The submarine oil produced after the oil spill had a long-term impact on the microbial community in the sediment. In this study, 16S rRNA genes high-throughput sequencing and quantitative PCR were used to study the composition and ...

Exploring the toxicity of the aged styrene-butadiene rubber microplastics to petroleum hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria under compound pollution system

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
As a new pollutant, microplastics have increasingly drawn public attention to its toxic behavior in the environment. The aim was to investigate the effect of styrene-butadiene-rubber microplastics (mSBR) with different degrees of aging on petroleum hydrocarbon (PHC) degrading bacteria in an environment with simultaneously existing pollutants.
