Description 1 online resource : illustrations (some color) Series Handbook of hydrocarbon and lipid microbiology Handbook of hydrocarbon and lipid microbiology. Summary In this book international experts discuss the state-of-the-art in the biological degradation of hydrocarbons to meet remedial or disposal goals. The work focuses on practical applications, often on globally important scales including the remediation of some of the worlds largest crude oil spills. Other related chapters discuss important implications of microbial transformation of hydrocarbons, including treatment of high fat processing wastes, impacts of microbial biodegradation activity on industrial processes, and the implications of microbial oil degradation in relation to modern oil extraction processes like hydraulic fracturing of shales and extraction of oil sands Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed August 30, 2019) Subject Hydrocarbons -- Microbiology Hydrocarbons -- Biodegradation.
