Bioremediation of diesel contamination at an underground storage tank site: a spatial analysis of the microbial community

Abstract: The present study reports on a real case of contamination due to the chronic leakage of diesel fuel from an underground tank at a dismissed service station. Speciation of the microbial community according to both lateral and vertical gradients from the origin of the contaminant release was analyzed by means of the PCR-DGGE technique. Moreover, the effects of a landfarming treatment on both the microbial community structure and the abatement of contamination were analyzed. The concentration of total petrol hydr… Show more

“…The availability of different carbon substrates can influence microbial community composition and differences have been observed in diesel and biodiesel fuels as well (4145). Correlations between both bacterial and fungal populations in contaminated fuels and the composition of FAME and alkanes in those fuels suggest that fuel composition influences the composition of contaminating microorganisms.…”

“…Soil was collected in a deciduous forest area located within the jurisdiction of the 'Comunit a Montana della Val Trompia' in the Pezzaze municipality, north Italy. A wildfire swept the area on 2 April 2012 and the soil was collected 4 months later, according to the quartering procedure (Andreolli et al 2016a). To increase the quantity of HMW hydrocarbons, the soil was spiked with 5 g kg À1 of V-Power Diesel (Royal Dutch Shell; The Hague, Netherlands), then carefully homogenized, collected in triplicate following the quartering procedure and used for both chemical and microbiological analysis at experimental time zero (T 0 ).…”

“…B: Anzahl der Pilzkolonien isoliert von jeder Probe, welche in Anwesenheit von Toluol (rot), PCB 126 (grün) und Hexadekan (blau) gewachsen sind. Ochroconis longiphorum (CBS 435.75) was isolated from the Canadian soil underneath the asphalt of a car park (Samerpitak et al, 2014), but also from the soil contaminated by a leaking diesel tank (Andreolli et al, 2016). Ochroconis longiphorum was formerly also described as Scolecobasidium longiphorum.…”
