Bioremediation of Soils Polluted with Hydrocarbons

August 31st, 2018|

Oil-polluted soil remediation with NPK fertilisers. It was clear from the present study that the addition of nutrients in the form of  N.P.K. (such as nitrogen, phosphate and potassium) stimulated the activity of bacteria and fungi in soil. Chicken manure can also be used to supply the NPK nutrients the oil-polluted soil. It was found
