Remediation of Petroleum Contaminated Soils

Combining the results of current research with essential background material, Remediation of Petroleum Contaminated Soils presents complete coverage of every aspect of in situ and ex situ bioremediation, as well as an extensive overview of the physical and chemical processes currently available for treating petroleum-contaminated soils. It describes treatment procedures and emphasizes treatments that are both versatile and do not endanger the local environment. The expansive coverage of this book will furnish readers with a wide range of options for developing treatment strategies and for customizing procedures for specific requirements.
