The model may also be applied to other multiphase systems, including ex situ soil washing, tar sand extraction, and colloid-stabilised emulsions.
Compared with previous investigations, higher disappearance of ΣPAHs occurred when the same coal-tar soil was amended with fresh green waste (56.0% ΣPAHs disappearance in soil amended with fresh green waste) instead of FGWC.
The microbial community structure changes of an aged-coal-tar soil contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were investigated during simulated bioremediation at the laboratory-scale using an in-vessel composting approach.
Coal tars in soil at a gasworks site in South Eastern Australia led to groundwater contamination with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), mono-aromatic compounds (BTEX) and phenols.
EPA-listed polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (∑PAHs), with accompanying humification and microbial community structure changes during simulated in-vessel composting-bioremediation of an aged coal-tar-contaminated soil amended with green waste were studied over 56 days.
The biodegradation of 16 USEPA-listed PAHs (ΣPAHs) during simulated in-vessel composting-bioremediation of an aged coal-tar-contaminated soil amended with fresh green waste compost (FGWC) collected from two landfill sites in the United Kingdom (UK) were studied over 56 days.
ΣPAH16 in surface soil adjacent to coal-tar-sealed lots at the University of New Hampshire was as high as 411 mg/kg, and concentrations decreased with distance from the sealed lot to less than 10 mg/kg.
An in situ electro-osmosis experiment was set up in a tar contaminated clay soil in Olst, the Netherlands, at the site of a former asphalt factory.
Overall, this study evaluates the feasibility of using SEAR for remediating EDC-tar contaminated subsurface soil and groundwater.
Cover each joint of the tile with a small piece of tar paper so that soil will not sift into the tile.
Activists have managed to quash at least two other huge pipelines leading out of the tar sands across Canadian soil, and only the election of Donald Trump salvaged any hope for KXL.
