Bioremediation of PAH-contaminated soil with fungi - from laboratory to field scale

Original language description

The purpose of this study was to develop a fungal bioremediation method that could be used for soils heavily contaminated with persistent organic compounds, such as polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Sawmill soil, contaminated with PAHs, was mixed with composted green waste (1:1) and incubated with or without fungal inoculum. The treatments were performed at the laboratory and field scales. In the laboratory scale treatment (starting concentration 3500 mg kg(-1), sum of 16 PAH) the high molecular weightPAHs were degraded significantly more in the fungal-inoculated microcosms than in the uninoculated ones. In the microcosms inoculated with Phanerochaete velutina, 96% of 4-ring PAHs and 39% of 5- and 6-ring PAHs were removed in three months. In the uninoculated microcosms, 55% of 4-ring PAHs and only 7% of 5- and 6-ring PAHs were degraded. However, during the field scale (2 t) experiment at lower starting concentration (1400 mg kg(-1), sum of 16 PAH) the % degradation was similar in both
