Journal ArticleDOI

Oil spill problems and sustainable response strategies through new technologies

TL;DR: New knowledge as well as research and technology gaps essential for developing appropriate decision-making tools in actual spill scenarios are summarized, with a particular focus on bioremediation as environmentally harmless, cost-effective and relatively inexpensive technology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recovery of Rhodococcus biosurfactants using methyl tertiary-butyl ether extraction

TL;DR: Due to certain characteristics of MTBE, such as relatively low toxicity, biodegradability, ease of downstream recovery, low flammability and explosion safety, the use of this solvent as an extraction agent in industrial scale biosurfactant production is feasible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of biosurfactants on crude oil desorption and mobilization in a soil system

TL;DR: Chemical analysis showed that crude oil removed by biosurfactant contained a lower proportion of high-molecular-weight paraffins and asphaltenes, the most nonbiodegradable compounds, compared to initial oil composition, suggesting that oil mobilized by biosURfactants could be easily biodegraded by soil bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioremediation of diesel-contaminated soil by microorganisms immobilised in polyvinyl alcohol

TL;DR: In this article, the potential of immobilised hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms for the clean up of diesel-contaminated soil was examined using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as an entrapment technique and microorganisms indigenous to the site.
Journal Article

Bioremediation of diesel contaminated soil by micro-organisms immobilised in polyvinyl alcohol

TL;DR: The potential of immobilised hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms for the clean up of diesel-contaminated soil is examined and immobilised systems were found to be the most successful, with greatest removal in a co-immobilisation system containing PVA-entrapped microorganisms and a synthetic oil absorbent.
