In-situ rehabilitation of hydrocarbon-contaminated soils. Final report. Vol. 1
Description
The study presented here was performed on the abandoned site of a gas works of the city of Karlsruhe. A survey of microbe populations showed that PAH degrading microorganisms were present at the site. Hypoxic conditions and low bioavailability of the contaminants proved to be the decisive limiting factors. Tensides were used to optimise the process. (EF)

Die vorgestellten Untersuchungen wurden auf dem ehemaligen Gaswerksgelaende der Stadt Karlsruhe durchgefuehrt. Die Charakterisierung der Bakterienpopulation zeigte, dass PAK-verwertende Mikroorganismen am Standort vorhanden waren. Ein Mangel an Sauerstoff und die geringe Bioverfuegbarkeit der Schadstoffe erwiesen sich als entscheidende limitierende Faktoren. Durch den Einsatz von Tensiden wurde eine Optimierung moeglich.
