Petroleum hydrocarbons, oil, heavy metals pollution is becoming additional severe problem
due to the growing call for crude oil and crude oil products related products in several fields …

Due to the increased use of crude oil and other oil-related products, a large amount of waste
is produced and discharged into the environment. These wastes contain toxic heavy metals …

Biosurfactants are surface-active biomolecules produced by microbes (bacteria, fungi, and
yeast) and have several advantages over the chemical surfactants, such as lower toxicity …

Agricultural productivity to meet growing demands of human population is a matter of great
concern for all countries. Use of green compounds to achieve the sustainable agriculture is …

Surfactants have always been a prominent chemical that is useful in various sectors (eg,

Thermally enhanced bioremediation (TEB), a new concept proposed in recent years,
explores the combination of thermal treatment and bioremediation to address the challenges …

The fermentative production of biosurfactants by Bacillus subtilis strain B30 and the
evaluation of biosurfactant based enhanced oil recovery using core-flood were investigated …

The world continues to rely heavily on petroleum as a primary energy source. However, a
great fraction of the oil-in-place remains inaccessible to traditional recovery means. This …

A significant quantum of crude oil is trapped in reservoirs and often unrecoverable by
conventional oil recovery methods. Further downstream, the petroleum industry is facing …

Biosurfactants are amphiphilic molecules produced by living organisms and endowed with
properties and characteristics that make them possible substitutes for synthetic surfactants in …
