The Influence of Fresh Raffia Palm Trunk on the Bioremediation of Oil-Based Drill
Abstract: This study determines the effect of fresh raffia palm for biodegradation of oil-based drill cuttings bioremediation. The experiment was conducted at the rivers institute of Agricultural research and training (RIART) located at the Rivers State University, Port Harcourt. Samples of oil-based drill cuttings were bulked in eleven reactors with four replications (T1, T2, T3-T11). The physiochemical properties of the initial drill cuttings were analyzed. Also, the physiochemical properties of the …

Bioremediation Potential: Discovering Naphthalene-Degrading Microbes in Iraqi Contaminated Soil
Abstract: A polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, napthalene is an environmental contaminant with a slow rate of disintegration. Biological treatment by microbes present in contaminated places is the most important of the several approaches applied to remove it from the environment. At depths of 5 to 10 cm, soil samples were collected from areas polluted by oil near the Al-Dora and Sheikh Omar refineries. Nutrient agar was cultured with 0.1 ml of each …
