Combined physical-biological in-situ remediation techniques for the clean-up of aged petroleum hydrocarbon spills - a case study based on the historically contaminated site N77 in Droesing.
Abstract
Focus is given to the development of a treatment train by combining innovative biochemical and physical in-situ techniques for the clean-up of sites contaminated with aged petroleum hydrocarbons and to some extent PAHs. Although most of the experiments will be accomplished in laboratories of scientific partners, the historically contaminated site Petroleum Works Droesing (N77) serves as pivot for research and technology development by providing samples from a real world scenario and the possibility of field-scale testing. Research on innovative in-situ techniques comprises the use of vegetable oil for the formation of micro-emulsions, the application of modified fleece for pollutant removal from groundwater and enzyme assisted biodegradation of persistent hydrocarbons eventually resulting in a significant reduction of remediation efforts.
