An evaluation of field total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) systems

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2001
An evaluation of several field kits and petroleum hydrocarbon measuring systems was conducted. The field kits were the immunoassay based EnviroGard petroleum fuels in soil test kit (EnviroGard, Millipore Canada, Mississauga, Ont., Canada), the turbidimetric based PetroFlag hydrocarbon test kit for soil (Dexsil, Hamden, CT, USA), a DR/2000 field kit ...

Biodegradation of total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) in Jordanian petroleum sludge

World Review of Science, Technology and Sustainable Development, 2004
Bioremediation, or the use of micro-organisms to decontaminate soil or groundwater, is being increasingly seen as an effective, environment-friendly treatment for oil-contaminated sites. In this study, the results are presented concerning a laboratory screening of several natural bacterial consortia and laboratory tests to establish the performance in ...

Evaluation of the total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) standard for JP‐4 jet fuel

Journal of Soil Contamination, 1995
Abstract The potential for use of alternatives to total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) for remediation purposes was examined specifically for JP‐4 fuel. The study objective was to determine the scientific basis for use of fuel constituents other than TPH in establishing soil cleanup standards at JP‐4‐contaminated sites.

Breakdown of low-level total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) in contaminated soil using grasses and willows

International Journal of Phytoremediation, 2015
A phytoremediation study targeting low-level total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) was conducted using cool- and warm-season grasses and willows (Salix species) grown in pots filled with contaminated sandy soil from the New Haven Rail Yard, CT. Efficiencies of the TPH degradation were assessed in a 90-day experiment using 20-8.7-16.6 N-P-K water-soluble ...

Phytodegradation of total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) in diesel-contaminated water using Scirpus grossus

Ecological Engineering, 2015
Abstract Phytoremediation using the perennial plant Scirpus grossus has been suggested as an environmentally friendly and economical method for treating contaminated water. In this study, a pilot-scale constructed wetland with a sub-surface batch system was adapted for the phytoremediation of contaminated water with different diesel concentrations, i.

Evaluation of ethyl lactate as solvent in Fenton oxidation for the remediation of total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH)-contaminated soil

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2017
Due to the health and environmental risks posed by the presence of petroleum-contaminated areas around the world, remediation of petroleum-contaminated soil has drawn much attention from researchers. Combining Fenton reaction with a solvent has been proposed as a novel way to remediate contaminated soils.

A novel method to determine total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) and water contents in reservoir drill cuttings

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2020
Abstract It is very well known that crude oil is extracted from the earth crust by drilling process and when the drill bit reaches the oil reservoir, the drill cuttings are being mixed with oil. The reservoir drill cuttings with oil are hazardous to the environment and cannot be disposed as such and an appropriate method is needed for disposal.

The use of sensory perception indicators for improving the characterization and modelling of total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) grade in soils

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2016
This paper proposes a multistep approach for creating a 3D stochastic model of total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) grade in potentially polluted soils of a deactivated oil storage site by using chemical analysis results as primary or hard data and classes of sensory perception variables as secondary or soft data.

Evaluating the impact of GC operating settings on GC–FID performance for total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) determination

Microchemical Journal, 2010
Abstract Interlaboratory comparisons for the analysis of mineral oil have indicated that many laboratories have problems in producing data of acceptable quality, mainly because of variations in the gas chromatographic settings used in the determination.

A multi-process phytoremediation system for decontamination of persistent total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs) from soils

Microchemical Journal, 2005
Multiple techniques that affect different aspects of contaminant removal can improve remediation of persistent hydrocarbons from soils. We have developed a multi-process phytoremediation system (MPPS) that is composed of land-farming (aeration and light exposure), contaminant degrading bacteria, plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), and growth ...
