Monitoring The Hydrocarbon Utilizing Bacteria in Crude Oil Remediation Using Bio-Stimulant of Mint Leaf (Mentha Piperita)
Abstract: Conceptual monitoring of hydrocarbon utilization bacteria on crude oil remediation using bio-stimulant of mint leaf (Mentha piperita) was investigated. The bio-stimulant nutrient was determined by considering the available nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and hydrocarbon utilizing bacteria presence in both room and sun-dried samples of the remediant used. The mint leaf (Mentha piperita) was processed to obtain the powder form (nano particle size) of the bio-stimulant and the microbes isolated and identified …

Effect of Bacteria on Crude Oil Degradation in Loamy and Clay Soil for Water and Ethanol Biostimulant Extraction from Bryophylum pinnatum Leaf
Abstract: The effect of bacteria on crude oil degradation in loamy and clay soil for water and ethanol biostimulant extraction from Bryophylum pinnatum leaf was investigated to ascertain the potential of the bacteria counts in the bioreactors sampled. At the progressive phase, the bacteria counts were more with bioreactors induced with ethanol solvent extract as the volume of the dosage increases compared to the bioreactors induced with the water extract. The …

The Integrity of Eadic-Hofstee Plot Model to Predict the kinetic Parameters of Crude Oil Degradation using Vernonia amygdalina Stem
Abstract: The integrity of Eadic-Hofstee concept was tested for the determination of the functional coefficients and parameters of crude oil degradation kinetics. The techniques enhanced the relationship between the substrate divided by the specific rate of the substrate degradation against substrate concentration (TPH). The investigation reveals the values of the biokinetic parameters of maximum specific rate of substrate degradation (Vmax) and the equilibrium constant values of the substrate degradation (Ks). The …
