1. Distribution and Sources of Aliphatic and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Surface Sediments of Itajaí-Açu Estuarine System in Brazil
The Itajaí-Açu estuarine system, located in southern Brazil, has great economic importance due to the presence of two ports (Itajaí and Navegantes). This system is affected by industrial and dredging activities, which can cause the remobilization of pollutants accumulated over time in the sediment. In this context, hydrocarbons were assessed in twelve sur

2. BIODEGRADATION OF EFFLUENT CONTAMINATED WITH DIESEL OIL AND GASOLINE USING CHITOSAN AS A NATURAL COAGULANT IN A CONTINUOUS PROCESS
Abstract This study evaluated the effects of aeration (constant aeration, intermittent aeration and a lack of aeration) and hydraulic retention time (HRT) (2, 3 and 4 days) on a continuous process with cell recycling, using chitosan as a natural coagulant for the sedimentation of a C1 mixed culture. This culture was used for the biodegradation of hydrocarbon

3. Sphingomonas from petroleum-contaminated soils in Shenfu, China and their PAHs degradation abilities
Abstract Members of the Sphingomonas genus are often isolated from petroleum-contaminated soils due to their unique abilities to degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which are important for in situ bioremediation. In this study, a combined phenotypic and genotypic approach using streptomycin-containing medium and Sphingomonas -specific PCR was de

4. Effect of biologically treated petroleum sludge on seed germination and seedling growth of Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. (Fabaceae)
The present investigation was carried out to study the response of different concentrations of treated petroleum sludge on seed germination, root and shoot length and tolerance of Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. The biologically treated petroleum sludge with bacterial consortium showed 54.8% reduction in total petroleum hydrocarbons. Treated sludge was utilized

5. In situ biosurfactant production and hydrocarbon removal by Pseudomonas putida CB-100 in bioaugmented and biostimulated oil-contaminated soil
In situ biosurfactant (rhamnolipid) production by Pseudomonas putida CB-100 was achieved during a bioaugmented and biostimulated treatment to remove hydrocarbons from aged contaminated soil from oil well drilling operations. Rhamnolipid production and contaminant removal were determined for several treatments of irradiated and non-irradiated soils: nutrient

6. Estudos microbiológicos para tratamento de água subterrânea de áreas contaminadas por hidrocarbonetos
Os compostos conhecidos como TPH (Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon) e BTEX (Benzeno, Tolueno, Etilbenzeno e Xileno) são contaminantes oriundos de derivados do petróleo como a gasolina e o diesel. Eles são provenientes de problemas que ocorrem com o armazenamento subterrâneo de combustíveis, principalmente em postos de abastecimento. São encontrados em água

7. Selection of biosurfactan/bioemulsifier-producing bacteria from hydrocarbon-contaminated soil
Petroleum-derived hydrocarbons are among the most persistent soil contaminants, and some hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms can produce biosurfactants to increase bioavailability and degradation. The aim of this work was to identify biosurfactant-producing bacterial strains isolated from hydrocarbon-contaminated sites, and to evaluate their biosurfactant p

8. Uso de marcadores orgânicos moleculares na determinação da origem da matéria orgânica em sedimentos do Sistema Estuarino-Lagunar de Cananéia-Iguape - SP - Brasil / Use of organic molecular markers in determination of the origin of the organic matter of Estuarine-Lagunar System of Cananeia-Iguape
This work has the objective in evaluate the sources of organic matter in sediments of the Cananéia-Iguape Estuarine-Lagunar System, using several geochemical markers. For the study area, 12 sample points were chosen, where the corers were obtained. For each point, the superficial 10 centimeters, sliced in each 2 centimeters, totalizing 60 samples. Granulome

9. Estudo da degradação de hidrocarbonetos policíclicos aromáticos a partir da reação de fenton utilizando magnetitas dopadas com cobalto
The awareness regarding Polycyclics Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs), petroleum derivatives, has been increasing over the years due to their toxic, carcinogenic and mutagenic characteristics. The increase on the use of petroleum and its derivatives as energy source has induced many accidents spilling liquid effluent in the environment, making harm to biota, incl

10. Hidrocarbonetos e esterois como indicadores de fontes e destino de matéria orgânica em sedimentos da Baía de Sepetiba, Rio de Janeiro
The inputs of organic matter derived from natural and anthropogenic sources to Sepetiba Bay were investigated by using aliphatic hydrocarbons and sterols in superficial sediments. Concentrations ranged from 0.26 to 2.65 μg g-1, <0.01 to 17.41 μg g-1 and 0.77 and 9.24 μg g-1 for n-alkanes, UCM (unresolved complex mixture) and total sterols, respectively. T

12. Degradação de naftaleno, fenantreno e benzo(a)pireno em solos e sedimentos de ambientes costeiros, oceânicos e antárticos / Degradation of naphthalene, phenanthrene e benzo(a)pyrene in soil and sediments of coastal, oceanic and Antarctic environments
Petroleum is the main source of fuel, and the operations of exploration, transportation, refining and distribution are potential sources of environmental pollution. In contaminated environments, the degradation of PAHs (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) depends on climatic factors, soil and microbial population. This study aimed to assess the potential for d
