Bioremediation - A Method to Solve Problems of Petroleum Pollution

Abstract:

Processing crude oil to provide useful products generates a variety of problems. The petroleum pollution and oil spill and so on. Environmental experts are trying to use the exceptional trophic diversity of bacteria to solve problems of petroleum pollution. John Pirt of Kings College London discovered bacteria living in horse manure that can break down sewage at temperatures of 80C. He used these bacteria to develop a system for sewage disposal that alternatives these high-temperature bacteria that with bacteria that grow at 37C. Pirts system nearly eliminates the organic material in sewage sludge, leaving water and some mineral waste. The mineral waste contains heavy metal contaminants that can be isolated and either disposed of or recycled.
