Investigation on the Comparison of the Physical Properties of Stimulants for Petroleum Hydrocarbon Remediation in Soil
Abstract: Crude oil pollution is a major environmental concern that can cause significant damage to soil ecosystems. Bioremediation, a natural process in which microorganisms degrade pollutants, has emerged as a promising approach for the remediation of crude oil-contaminated soil. Grape leaf powder (Vitis Vinifera), a readily available and inexpensive organic material, has been shown to stimulate microbial activity and enhance bioremediation. This study investigated the effectiveness of grape leaf powder as …
