Bioremediation techniques–classification based on site of application: principles, advantages, limitations and prospects
TL;DR: The two major approaches to enhance bioremediation are biostimulation and bioaugmentation provided that environmental factors, which determine the success of biOREmediation, are maintained at optimal range.

Recent development in the treatment of oily sludge from petroleum industry: A review
TL;DR: The origin, characteristics, and environmental impacts of oily sludge were introduced and no single specific process can be considered as a panacea since each method is associated with different advantages and limitations.
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.

Processes governing phosphorus availability in temperate soils
TL;DR: In this article, a review of recent advances in this field is presented, focusing on processes governing inorganic P release from the solid phase to the soil solution and its measurement using two dynamic approaches: isotope exchange kinetics and desorption with an infinite sink.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monitoring of bioremediation by soil biological activities.
TL;DR: Inorganic nutrients stimulated hydrocarbon biodegradation but not all biological activities to a significant extent, and the residual hydrocarbon content correlated positively with soil respiration, biomass-C (substrate-induced respiration), and with activities of soil dehydrogenase, urease and catalase.

TL;DR: In this article, the Earth's ATMOSPHERE is represented as a set of three levels: the hydrosphere, the stratospheric ozone layer, and the oceans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioremediation of diesel-contaminated soil with composting.
TL;DR: The degradation of diesel oil was significantly enhanced by the addition of these organic amendments relative to straight soil and Preferential degradation of n-alkanes over TPH was observed regardless of the kind and the amount of organic amendments.
