Enhanced Degradation of Benzo[α]Pyrene in Coal Tar Contaminated Soils Using Biodiesel
The biodegradation of the potent carcinogen, benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), and other priority pollutants was investigated in un-weathered coal tar contaminated soil over a period of 150 days. Results from the laboratory microcosm experiments showed that after 60 days, the concentrations of BaP were significantly reduced by 81%, in the b.. Read More
