The state of the art of the reported data on interactions between microorganisms and HSs is
presented herein. The properties of HSs are discussed in terms of microbial utilization …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are present in the environment due to both natural
sources and human activities. They are abundant and resistant to decomposition. Humic …

Humic acid (HA) as one class of macromolecular substances plays important roles in
mediating environmental behaviors of pollutants in sediments, but its effect on microbial …

Abstract Treatment of a saline petrochemical wastewater with BOD 5/COD ratio of less than
0.1 was investigated using a consortium consisted of three isolated salt-tolerant bacteria …

Bioremediation has shown its applicability for removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAHs) from soil and sediments. In the present study, the effect of biostimulation on …

The reuse feasibility of the bioremediated effluent of the combination of sequential soil
washing followed by biological treatment for removal of phenanthrene (PHE) from …

In this paper, the typical organic component of humic acid (HA) was studied to explore its
effect on the co-metabolic biodegradation of Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) in …

Background The problems related to conventional Fenton oxidation, including low pH
required and production of considerable amounts of sludge have led researchers to …

Background: Phenanthrene (PHE) is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) with
crystalline structure of C14H10, which was produced from incomplete combustion of …

Pyrene is one of the 16 group combinations of polyaromatic hydrocarbons, which are known
as primary pollutants in the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) list. This study …
