如果使用和处置得当,杂酚油似乎不会对人体健康造成重大威胁。然而,杂酚油的误用、意外泄漏和处置不当导致污染环境,具有严重的潜在健康风险。生物修复,即利用污染物降解微生物来改善被污染的材料,是将这些场地恢复到原始状态的一种方法。杂酚油污染通常与表层土壤、处理泻湖或蒸发区的水以及被上述来源的渗滤液污染的地下水有关。总的来说,活跃的木材处理设施每年产生840至1530干公吨的危险废物污泥,分类为K001 (49)
When properly used and disposed of, creosote does not appear to signifi-cantly threaten human health. How-ever, misuse, accidental spillage, and improper disposal of creosote results in contaminated environmentswith seri-ous potential health risks. Bioremediation, the use of pollutant-degrading microorganisms to ameliorate con-taminated materials, represents one means by which these sites may be re-stored to their original condition.Environmental contamination Creosote contamination is generally associated with surface soils, waters in treatment lagoons or evaporation areas, and groundwater contaminated with leachate from the above sources. Collectively, active wood treatment facili-ties generate an estimated 840 to 1530 dry metric tons annually (2) of hazardous-waste sludge classified as K001 (49
