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

open access: yesJournal 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.
