Nunaoil was a national oil company of Greenland founded in 1985 as an equal partnership between the Greenland Home Rule Government and DONG Energy It is a non-paying partner in all licenses around Greenland. It handled oil exploration, while import of oil for local need is handled by Nukissiorfiit. Due to the decision of Greenland's Government ...

Results of this study demonstrated that inexpensive waste materials can be utilized as biocarriers of an oil-degrading consortium and that immobilization on biocarriers can enhance the bioremediation of oil-contaminated seawater.

Bioremediation of heavily oil-polluted seawater by a bacterial consortium immobilized in cocopeat and rice hull powder

Hydrocarbon degradation and bacterial community responses during remediation of sediment artificially contaminated with heavy oil SN Nunal, SMAES SANTANDER-DE LEON, W Hongyi, AA Regal, ......

Shifts in the bacterial communities in the seawater were more dynamic than in the sediment. Results of this study showed that addition of remediation agents significantly enhanced the natural biodegradation of heavy oil in a sediment-seawater microcosm trial.

Jul 31, 2015 · In this review article, we have discussed the potential of immobilized microbial cells to degrade petroleum hydrocarbons. In some studies, enhanced degradation with immobilized cells as compared to free living bacterial cells for the …

NUNAOIL A/S was established to be responsible for the Danish/Greenlandic public participation in Atlantic Richfield Company’s (ARCO) oil and gas exploration on Jameson Land in East Greenland. NUNAOIL participates in the exploration as a carried partner with a …

Nuñal, S.N., Santander-de Leon, S.M., Hongyi, W., Regal, A.A., Toshikawa, T., Okunishi, S., and Maeda, H. (2017) Hydrocarbon degradation and bacterial community responses during remediation of sediment artificially contaminated with heavy oil. Biocontrol Sci. 22 (4): 187-203.

Jan 25, 2022 · Neutral oils can be desirable for some cooking applications, as they can provide a neutral base for frying and sautéing without imparting any additional flavor to the dish. Types of neutral oils include safflower oil, peanut oil, and grapeseed oil.

May 20, 2019 · Oil contamination affects all ecosystems, and the remediation of polluted sites using environmentally friendly strategies is crucial. Here, we report an analysis of the patent documents of potential petroleum bioremediation techniques that use microbes to clean seawater.
