The aim of this research is to investigate bioremediation of spent engine oil on some selected contaminated soils. Soil samples were collected from five (5) mechanic workshops along Taiwo-Oke within Ilorin metropolis. They were subjected to bioremediation using the land-farming …
This study was conducted to determine: (1) the removal of Cr (III and VI) from solution by soils and A. niger and reduction of Cr (VI) in spiked soils, (2) the mole fraction of Pb-EDTA in EDTA treated soils polluted with Pb from human activities as well as soil and chemical fact…
Weak organic acids and/or their salts were tested as soil washing or flushing agents for the ex- or in-situ remediation of soils polluted by heavy metals. Three soils naturally with heavy metals were used for the tea. The three soils were characterized as a clay loam, loam and s…
"Biofilms represent the natural living style of microbial communities and plays a pivotal role in biogeochemical cycles and natural attenuation. Biofilms can be engineered for biodegradation and biotransformation of organic and inorganic contaminants, for both in situ bioremedia…
