Enhancement of bioremediation technology using advanced molecular assessment of hydrocarbon degradation

生物修复技术是去除土壤和水样中碳氢化合物污染的可行选择。然而，为了优化其效率，需要更好地了解生物降解过程及其修复处理所涉及的产品。**在这个项目中，卡尔加里大学的PRG小组将与Delta**修复公司合作，研究BioLogix修复处理过程中的碳氢化合物去除，并评估其优化路线。为此，PRG将使用最先进的分析技术和创新的数据分析策略，对碳氢化合物、它们的杂原子类似物和生物修复过程中产生的降解产物进行高级分子评估。获得的**化学信息将更好地理解控制Delta生物修复技术效率的微生物过程、途径和**理化变量，并有助于其**未来的优化，以及减少**加拿大现有和未来污染场地的环境影响。

Bioremediation technologies are a viable option for the removal of hydrocarbon pollution from**soil and water samples. However, in order to optimize their efficiency, a better understanding**of biodegradation processes, and their products involved in the remediation treatment are needed.**In this project, the PRG group at the University of Calgary will collaborate with Delta**Remediation Inc., to investigate the hydrocarbon removal during BioLogix remediation treatment, and assess**the routes for its optimization. To this end, state-of-the-art analytical techniques and**innovative data analysis strategies available at the PRG will be used for advanced molecular assessment of**hydrocarbons, their heteroatom analogs, and degradation products generated during bioremediation. Obtained**chemical information will generate better understanding of microbiological processes, pathways, and**physicochemical variables controlling the efficiency of Delta's bioremediation technology, and contribute to its**future optimization, and the reduction of the environmental impacts of existing and future contaminated sites in**Canada.
