Soil, exposed to petroleum oil contaminants (in the form of petrol, diesel, gasoline, crude oil, used motor oil), may cause potential damage to the environment, animal and human health …
This work aimed to investigate the performance of biosurfactant, produced by a halotolerant bacterial strain, Pseudomonas aeruginosa PF2, for desorption of PAHs from soil, followed by …
Using surfactants for the remediation of aquifers is more challenging due to the interaction with soils of heterogeneous chemistry and potential toxicity concerns. In this review …

The present study determined the most effective surfactants to remediate gasoline and diesel-contaminated soil integrating information from soil texture and soil organic matter …
Soil fulfils vital functions for life on Earth and so, just like water and air, its protection from all sources of contamination is a major concern. However, the extensive use of petroleum …
In the present study, highly pure rhamnolipids (RLs) was produced using biocatalysts immobilized on amino-functionalized chitosan coated magnetic nanoparticles. Upon …
In the present study, surface-active compounds (SAC) were extracted from biosolids using an alkaline treatment process. They were tested for their remediation efficiency of crude oil …
The low number and activity of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria and the low solubility and availability of hydrocarbons hamper bioremediation of oil-contaminated soils in arid deserts …
Surfactant-enhanced soil washing has been used for remediation of organic pollutants for an extended period, but its effectiveness and wide application was limited by the high …
