Comparative Study of Biodegradation of Hydrocarbons in Soils under Nipa Palm (Nypa fruticans Wurmb) Treatment
Abstract: This study evaluated the potential of Nipa palm (Nypa fruticans) powder as an alternative amendment for remediation of crude oil polluted loamy and sandy soils. Further, the study investigated the bioremediation process using the first-order degradation rate and quadratic models. From the analysis, there were changes in the physicochemical properties of the soils under the Nipa palm powder amendment during the remediation. Also, TPH reduction in the amended soil samples …
