Recently, biostimulation has often been used to remediate oily wastes. The use of additional bioaugmentation to increase biostimulation efficiency is widely discussed in scientific and practical literature. In this study, three methods of bioremediation for oily waste containing 177.8 g kg-1 of hydrocarbons were used: the first one included biostimulation with 66.6 % compost (w/w) made from municipal waste, the second one combined biostimulation and one-time inoculation by hydrocarbon degrading strains, and the th...

Chicken meat is easy to produce, and as a result, it is a cheap and massively used source of animal protein in food. However, poultry farms produce more than 200 thousand tons of chicken manure per year, which must be treated. In the large scale farms biological treatment requires huge facilities and investments, therefore other methods are required. Among them, high-temperature drying and pyrolysis. The goal of this work was to compare the products of chicken manure treatment by means of two thermal methods - hig...
