Article Synopsis
- This study explores how combining a hydrogen-producing microbiome with phytoremediation improves the breakdown of diesel in contaminated soil, focusing on enhanced enzyme activity.
- Key soil changes included increased moisture from 12.5% to 20%, a shift in pH to an alkaline level of 8.0-8.5, and improved organic matter, all supporting microbial activity.
- The combined approach achieved a 78.1% reduction in total petroleum hydrocarbons, significantly outperforming traditional methods, while also boosting microbial populations and Bermuda grass survival rates.
