Ecology, activity and interactions of microorganisms biodegrading naphthenic acids and high molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

Naphthenic acids (NAs) and high molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (HMW-PAHs) are both natural components of fossil fuels that cause a number of environmental issues. Using enrichment cultures derived from oil sands-process affected water (05PW), the biodegradation of three HMW-PAHs t...
