Investigating the effects of biochar and activated carbon amendment on the microbial community response in a volatile petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated gravelly sand

Laboratory batch and long-term column experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of wood-chip biochar and coal-derived activated carbon amendment on the microbiology of a volatile petroleum hydrocarbon (VPH) - contaminated gravelly sand. First, a stable isotope-labelled mono aromatic comp...
