Abstract: | A series of microbial associations capable of degrading various petroleum oils, emulsols, and crude oil were obtained by selection during periodic or continuous cultivation. The formation of these associations and oil-product degradation occurred most efficiently during aerobic flow cultivation. Under these conditions, oils were degraded by 92% on average. The microbial degradation of a petroleum oil depended on its brand, concentration, emulsification, and aeration. |
