ABSTRACT In situ chemical oxidation (ISCO), a remediation technology for soil and groundwater contamination, utilizes oxidants that can impact the soil environment and indirectly influence soil CO2 emissions. Understanding these emissions may support more sustainable ISCO applications by enabling adjustments to treatment conditions that limit ...

Enzyme Profiling of Petroleum Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacteria Isolated from Oil Contaminated Soils
Objectives: The main objective of this study was to evaluate the activity of enzymes with hydrocarbon-degrading potential. Methods: Four petroleum hydrocarbon-degrading bacterial strains, S4P2, S14P1, S9D2, and S13D1, were isolated and used to screen the activity of catalase, lipases, and catechol 1, 2-dioxygenase.

Electroactive Microbiomes: Electron Transfer Mechanisms and Environmental Biotechnology Applications
Electroactive microbiomes couple direct, mediated, conductive, and interspecies electron transfer with biofilm organisation to drive wastewater treatment, bioremediation, resource recovery, carbon conversion, and biosensing. Their performance depends on balancing electron transfer, mass transport, community structure, and electrode–biofilm interactions
