Quantitative determination on biodegradation of PAHs by bacteria from oil sludge / Norhafiza Abdul Ghani

The biodegradability of petroleum waste product was evaluated using oil sludge taken from Exxon Mobil petroleum refiner y treatment plant in Kerteh, Terengganu. This study was a further extension of studies conducted by Dzulkafli (2007) where the qualitative analysis was established. The analysis in...
