0332156 Suflita This project will integrate both laboratory and field information to evaluate the biodegradation patterns, hydrocarbon interactions, and rates of anaerobic hydrocarbon decay in complex fuel mixtures. The biodegradation of a suite of important fuel hydrocarbons in addition to BTEX compounds will be studied. Findings will be coupled with chemical principles of structure and reactivity in order to help discern and predict the patterns of biodegradability at petroleum-impacted sites. This information will help provide the scientific basis for engineering decisions regarding restoration management approaches as well as help address the elusive question of when a given petroleum-contaminated site will be remediated by intrinsic microbial processes.

0332156 该项目将整合实验室和现场信息，以评估生物降解模式、碳氢化合物相互作用和复杂燃料混合物中厌氧碳氢化合物衰变的速率。除BTEX化合物外，还将研究一系列重要燃料烃的生物降解。研究结果将与结构和反应性的化学原理相结合，以帮助识别和预测受石油影响的地点的生物降解性模式。这一信息将有助于为恢复管理方法方面的工程决策提供科学依据，并有助于解决一个难以捉摸的问题，即何时通过固有的微生物过程对特定的石油污染场地进行补救。
