Book Chapter
Philp, J. C., Bamforth, S., Singleton, I., & Atlas, R. M. (2005). Environmental Pollution and Restoration: A Role for Bioremediation. In R. M. Atlas, & J. Philp (Eds.), Bioremediation, 1-48. American Society for Microbiology. doi:10.1128/9781555817596.ch1

With greater understanding of microbial diversity and the development of bioengineering, bioremediation is taking its place as a cost-effective technique in integrated environmental restoration efforts. The major reasons for the control of water and... Read More about Environmental Pollution and Restoration: A Role for Bioremediation.

The use of ozone in the remediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon contaminated soil. (2005)
Journal Article
O’Mahony, M. M., Dobson, A. D., Barnes, J. D., & Singleton, I. (2006). The use of ozone in the remediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon contaminated soil. Chemosphere, 63(2), 307-314. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2005.07.018

The potential of using ozone for the removal of phenanthrene from several different soils, both alone and in combination with biodegradation using a microbial inoculant (Pseudomonas alcaligenes PA-10), was examined. The greater the water content of t... Read More about The use of ozone in the remediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon contaminated soil..
