Combined slurry and solid-phase bioremediation of diesel contaminated soils.
Journal of Hazardous Materials 2003 June 28
This work investigates, at a laboratory and pilot-scale, the influence of various operating parameters on the combined slurry and solid-phase bioremediation technique for a diesel contaminated soil. For slurry-phase bioreactors (SPB), it has been found that, as far as famine conditions are attained at the end of the react cycle, a low hydraulic retention time and a low slurry recycle ratio allows for a better utilization of the reactor volume. A 7-day slurry-phase bioreactor treatment has been shown to provide enough contaminant removal allowing the soil drawn from the slurry-phase bioreactors to be fed effectively to the solid-phase bioreactors (SoPB) for completing the soil cleanup. However, an important improvement of the solid-phase bioreactor performance has been found using soil additives, namely sand and surfactants. While the first soil additive improves pile porosity and consequently oxygen diffusion, the latter increases contaminant bioavailability.
