... Abstract Crude oil biodegradation by bacterial strains isolated from oil contaminated soil samples, Oman, were performed and its potential applications in crude oil waste management were analyzed. Accidental and occasional crude oil spills, treatment of produced water containing hydrocarbons...

... Dispersed oil droplets have only a transient lifetime because of rapid biodegradation. This occurs because dispersing the surface slick into small droplets in the water column provides greater access for oil-degrading bacteria, which use oil as an energy source. Also, dilution of dispersed oil...
