Physical Description

Notes
Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).
Contents
Contamination, regulation, and remediation: an introduction to bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbons in cold regions / Freezing and frozen soils / Movement of petroleum through freezing and frozen soils / Hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria in contaminated cold soils / Temperature effects on biodegradation of petroleum contaminants in cold soils / Analytical methods for petroleum in cold region soils / Treatability studies: microcosms, mesocosms, and field trials / Nutrient requirements for bioremediation / Landfarming / Thermally enhanced bioremediation and integrated systems / Emerging technologies /
Summary
This guide to bioremediation in cold regions is designed to aid environmental practitioners, industry, and regulators in the remediation of petroleum spills and contaminated sites in cold regions. Remediation design and technology used in temperate climates does not necessarily work in cold climates, and cleanup takes longer due to shorter treatment seasons, sub-freezing temperatures, ground freezing and thawing, and limited bioactivity. Environmental engineers and scientists from eight countries working in the polar regions combine their experiences and expertise with petroleum contamination to write this book. It contains in-depth discussions on regulations, freezing and frozen ground, identification and adaptations of cold-tolerant bacteria, contaminant transport in cold soils and permafrost, temperature effects on biodegradation, analytical methods, treatability studies, and nutritional requirements for bioremediation. Emphasis is given to practical and effective bioremediation methods for application in cold regions. Emerging technologies are also discussed.
