Phytoremediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon of impatiens balsamina associated with pseudomonas sp. / Norul Yasmin Abd Manan

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), also known as polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, are potent atmospheric pollutants consisting of fused aromatic rings and do not carry or contain heteroatoms/substituents. In this study a bacteria-strain was used to enhance phytoremediation process with the a...

After 15 days, it was found out that, without the presence of Pseudomonas sp. in soil both PAHs able to be remove up to 90-100% from day 1.
