EFFICACY OF COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS IN ENHANCING OIL BIODEGRADATION IN CLOSED LABORATORY REACTORS
A laboratory screening protocol was designed and conducted to test the efficacy of 8 commercial allochthonous bacterial cultures and 2 non-bacterial products in enhancing the biodegradation of weathered Prudhoe Bay crude oil in closed flasks. hree lines of evidence were used to support the decision...
