"Hydrocarbon biotechnology offers environmentally friendly technical solutions that can be implemented to solve problems throughout the value chain of the fossil fuel industry. This book, Hydrocarbon Biotechnology: Challenges and Future Trends, presents an up-to-date view of hyd…
The demand for oil and gas has brought exploration and production to unprecedented depths of the world's oceans. Currently, over 50% of the oil from the Gulf of Mexico now comes from waters in excess of 1,500 meters (one mile) deep, where no oil was produced just 20 years ago. T…
"This book introduces the reader to the science and technology of bioremediation - a key process for the removal of crude oil and crude oil based contaminants at spill sites. The contaminants of concern in the molecularly-variable crude oil and crude oil products can be degraded…
"This book introduces the reader to the science and technology of bioremediation - a key process for the removal of crude oil and crude oil based contaminants at spill sites. The contaminants of concern in the molecularly-variable crude oil and crude oil products can be degraded…
The prime focus of the book is to determine the mechanism, extent, and efficiency of biodegradation processes, as it is necessary to know the composition of the original crude oil or crude oil product. The technology of bioremediation and the concerns of whether or not bioremedi…
Oil spills are a serious marine disaster. Oil spill accidents usually occur in shipping, ports and offshore oil development. Although most are emergent events, once an oil spill occurs, it will cause great harm to the marine ecological environment, andbring direct harm to the ec…
