TY - T1 - Degradation rates of aged petroleum hydrocarbons are likely to be mass transfer dependent in the field SN - / 0269-4042 UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10138/14155 T3 - A1 - Björklöf, Katarina; Salminen, Jani; Sainio, Pirjo; Jørgensen, Kirsten A2 - PB - Y1 - 2008 LA - en AB - Evidence for on site biodegradation may be difficult to provide at heterogeneous sites without additional experiments in controlled laboratory conditions. In this study, microbial activities measured as CO2 and CH4 production were compared in situ, in intact soil cores and in bottle microcosms containing sieved soils. In addition, biodegradation rates were determined by measuring the decrease in petroleum hydrocarbon concentrations at 7°C in aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Elevated concentrati...
