Journal ArticleDOI

Distribution and accumulation of heavy metals in the sediments of Kaohsiung Harbor, Taiwan.

TL;DR: Investigation of the distribution, enrichment, and accumulation of heavy metals in the sediments, especially those at the vicinity of tributary estuaries of Kaohsiung Harbor, Taiwan suggested the influence of industrial and municipal wastewaters discharged from the neighboring industrial parks and river basins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of persulfate to remediate petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated soil: feasibility and comparison with common oxidants.

TL;DR: Results show that persulfate oxidation is capable of treating diesel and fuel oil contaminated soil and sequential injections of ferrous ion to generate sulfate free radicals might be a feasible way to enhance contaminant oxidation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of a constructed wetland for industrial wastewater treatment: a pilot-scale study.

TL;DR: Results indicate that the pilot-plant wetland system can achieve removal of 61% COD, 89% BOD, 81% SS, 35% TP, and 56% NH(3)-N.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of in situ biosparging to remediate a petroleum-hydrocarbon spill site: field and microbial evaluation.

TL;DR: Results show that more than 70% of BTEX has been removed through the biosparging system within a 10-month remedial period at an averaged groundwater temperature of 18 degrees C, indicating that biosp Garging is a promising technology to remediate BTEX contaminated groundwater.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biotransformation of cyanide to methane and ammonia by Klebsiella oxytoca.

TL;DR: Results from this study show that the processes of cyanide biodegradation and ammonia production by resting cells occurred simultaneously, which suggests that the utilization of cyanides as nitrogen source by K. oxytoca might proceed using ammonia as an assimilatory substrate.
