Abstract

Contamination of agricultural land(s) is a major problem worldwide which is associated with activities of petroleum industry. Due to these exploration activities remedial techniques for clean-up of contaminated agricultural soil(s) has become an alarming research topic. Hydrocarbon utilizing bacterial consortium (HUBC), isolated from petroleum crude (petroleum industry waste water and soil) contaminated sites, India has been used for soil microcosm study. The aim of present study was to compare potency of five different techniques to remediate petroleum hydrocarbons contaminated agricultural soil by employing soil microcosm study. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report for comparison of five different techniques (abiotic control, natural attenuation, biostimulation, bioaugmentation and simultaneous bioaugmentation & biostimulation) for bioremediation of agricultural soil using consortium of hydrocarbon utilizers by employing soil microcosms. Concurrent application of bioaugmentation (with HUBC) and biostimulation (with nutrient amendments) in the soil microcosm resulted in 93.67 ± 1.80% hydrocarbons degradation in 45 days of experiment and hydrocarbon utilizing bacterial count was recorded 4.11 ± 0.11 × 10 8 CFU/g. In the bioaugmented and biostimulated soil microcosm organic carbon was reduced from 3.49 ± 0.08% to 0.62 ± 0.11% with simultaneous decrease of other nutrients. The consortium could survive in artificially crude oil contaminated and nutrients amended…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
