Isolation of Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degrading Bacteria from the Liaohe Estuary at Cold Climate

Abstract:

Two cold-tolerant petroleum hydrocarbon degrading bacteria strain named CHD1 and CHD2 were isolated from oil-contaminated soil at cold climate. The isolated strains were able use diesel oil as sole carbon. The petroleum hydrocarbon degradation rate was analyzed using UV-spectrometry-based methods. The results showed that the diesel oil degradation rate of CHD1 and CHD2 were 22% and 25%, respectively.
