Several oil spill simulation models exist in the literature, which are used worldwide to
simulate the evolution of an oil slick created from marine traffic, petroleum production, or …

Multifaceted interactions between marine bacteria and particulate matter exert a major
control over the biogeochemical cycles in the oceans. At the microbial scale, free-living …

The interactions between marine bacteria and particulate matter play a pivotal role in the
biogeochemical cycles of carbon and associated inorganic elements in the oceans …

Abstract During the Deepwater Horizon blowout, unprecedented volumes of dispersant were
applied both on the surface and at depth. Application at depth was intended to disperse the …

In this study, an analysis of the hydrodynamic effects on the hexadecane (HXD) uptake
strategies of a bacterial consortium in an airlift bioreactor was performed using mathematical …

The delayed Coker process as an upgrading process has the main impact on the
productivity of the Refinery Complexes. To determine the impact of different operating …

A mathematical model was proposed to appropriately describe the fate of multicomponent
substrates in porous media, especially soil. The model utilized appropriate biodegradation …

Natural seeps and accidental releases of crude oil in the sea result in swarms of droplets
that are carried away by underwater sea currents. The droplets may be created either at the …
