Article Synopsis
- The use of petroleum oils in cold regions has led to long-lasting soil pollution, posing serious environmental risks due to the harsh conditions that allow these pollutants to persist for over 20 years.
- Microbial bioremediation is a cost-effective method to clean up oil pollutants, but traditional techniques take longer to work in cold environments.
- Recent advancements in biotechnology, like biostimulation and bioaugmentation, aim to improve the efficiency of hydrocarbon removal, and the review also discusses various approaches and a bibliometric analysis of related research.
