ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering, 2016 Effective emulsification of oil in seawater plays an important role in the marine oil spill remediation process. The negative effects of chemical surfactants have necessitated a search for alternative dispersant that are sustainable and environmentally ...

Petroleum hydrocarbons: Degradation and growth potential for Atlantic Ocean sediment bacteria
Marine Biology, 1976Water, sediment and microorganisms were sampled at stations along a trackline in the Atlantic Ocean off the North Carolina Coast (USA) at depths of 9 to 5,000 m. Selected chemical and physical parameters were measured. At three of the stations, microorganisms isolated from sediment were examined for ability to degrade a number of petroleum hydrocarbons.

Immobilized microorganism systems have the potential to degrade toxic chemicals faster than conventional treatment systems. Based on an effective hydrocarbon-degrading bacterial strain which was isolated from oil-contaminated soil of Dagang Oilfield, this study investigated the optimum preparation of immobilized microorganism: sodium alginate 2.5-3.5%,

Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degradation Potential of Soil Bacteria Native to the Yellow River Delta
Pedosphere, 2008Abstract The bioremediation potential of bacteria indigenous to soils of the Yellow River Delta in China was evaluated as a treatment option for soil remediation. Petroleum hydrocarbon degraders were isolated from contaminated soil samples from the Yellow River Delta. Four microbial communities and eight isolates were obtained.

Biodegradation
Remediating petroleum-contaminated soils from oil fields is one of the most challenging tasks for both the Libyan oil sector and the global oil industry. It is therefore necessary to isolate and identify bacteria capable of metabolically synthesising biosurfactants from oil-contaminated soil, as they can be used for bioremediation.

Isolation and Characterization of Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degrading Bacteria from the Bohai Sea, China
Advanced Materials Research, 2014Fourteen petroleum hydrocarbon degrading bacteria strains were isolated from oil-contaminated site. Isolated strains were able use diesel oil as sole carbon and energy source. Bacterial strain HD1 was selected due to the luxuriant growth on oil agar. The oil degradation rate of strain HD1 was analyzed using UV-spectrometry-based methods.

In recent years, accumulation of petroleum hydrocarbons in soil and water is a global concern due to its genotoxicity and carcinogenic nature. Bioremediation of petroleum contaminates sites with natural isolates having ability to degrade hydrocarbons, are safe alternative for effective biodegradation.

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2013
The natural petroleum hydrocarbon degrading capacity of the Archipelago Sea water in S-W Finland was studied in a microcosm experiment. Pristine and previously oil exposed sites were examined. Bacterial community fingerprinting was performed using terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) and samples from selected microcosms were ...

Journal of Basic Microbiology, 2018
This study was conducted to determine what effects nanoparticles (NPs) like TiO2, ZnO, and Ag may pose on natural attenuation processes of petroleum hydrocarbons in contaminated soils. The solid NPs used were identified using x‐ray diffraction technique and their average size was certified as 18.2, 16.9, and 18.3 nm for Ag‐NPs, ZnO‐NPs, and TiO2‐NPs ...

In this study bacterial strainB4A isolated from petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated soil showed potential to produce bio-surfactant in the presence of 2% (v/v) diesel oil as a carbon source. The growth rate was determined using spectrophotometer at 600nm. Identification based on 16S r-RNA sequencing proved B4A isolate as Pantoeadispersa.
