Bioremediation is a classical method for the reduction of TPH
levels is soil. However, these methods will not achieve high
level reduction. It can give lower than 10,000 PPM or
1%.Biomederation requires the addition of different types of
nutrient to keep the bacteria life. The principle is
enhancement of the bacteria which already exist in soil. Our
challenge is to balance the nutrient & oxygen requirement to
activate the bacteria. Heavy Hydrocarbon ends require more
research to specify the right nutrients & proper atmosphere. In
all cases, soil temping is required periodically to provide
oxygen to the bacteria. |
