Investigations on the characterizations, optimization and effectiveness of goat manure compost in crude oil biodegradation

This study investigates the potential of ready to use goat manure compost (GMC) in the biodegradation of crude oil (CO). Microbial respiration (CO₂ evolved), and heterotrophic bacteria count (HBC) in the CO contaminated soil treated with goat manure compost (COCS-GMC) were also investigated. The HBC...
