Computation of Biokinetic Parameters of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degradation using Vernonia amygdalina Stem
Abstract: This investigation showcases the computation of biokinetic parameters of total petroleum hydrocarbon degradation using Vernonia amygalina stem as bio-stimulant for the remediation of contaminants in loamy soil environment. The research revealed decrease in TPH degradation with increase in contact time and the percentage reduction was computed. The result shows TPH (100 dosage) > TPH (75g dosage) > TPH (50g dosage) > TPH (25g dosage) > TPH (control sample) and the …
