Bioremediation of Petroleum Hydrocarbons in the Upper Parts of Sandy Beaches

Charbel Abou-Khalil et al.

Summary: The biodegradation of dispersed crude oil in the ocean is rapid, but much slower on shorelines due to low moisture content, nutrient limitation, and higher oil concentrations in beaches. Increased salinity may also inhibit oil biodegradation in seashores.

Crude oil biodegradation in upper and supratidal seashores

Charbel Abou Khalil et al.

Summary: The salinity of upper seashores can surpass seawater due to evaporation, potentially inhibiting the biodegradation of oil spills. Under high salt concentrations, the activity of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria was significantly inhibited, especially for alkanes. This study suggests that occasional irrigation of oiled supratidal zones could support remediation processes by promoting biodegradation.
