Optimization Strategy of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Contaminated Media Bioremediation through Biosurfactant Addition
A microbial surfactant was investigated for its potential to enhance bioavailability and, hence, the biodegradation of PAHs contaminated soil. Phenanthrene, a 3-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), was chosen as a model target compound. The bioavailability and biodegradation tests were perfor...
