Metal-complex dyes form complex compounds with metal ions. In practice, these dyes shows very good level dyeing, have better penetration properties, can cover up for the irregularities in the substrates, are more resistant to washing processes, and are more stable to light. In molecules of metal complex dyes, pigments and inks, metals are bound that pose a serious risk to the environment in wastewater from textile and leather production. Despite the fact that today most EU countries have strict limits on the conte...

The aim of this article is assessment biochar bioremediation potential in the benzo[a]pyrene artificially contaminated Haplic Chernozem with various doses of benzo[a]pyrene (200, 400 and 800 ?g/kg) equivalent to 10, 20 and 40 levels of maximal permissible concentrations (MPC) and 1-5% biochar amendment. The main subject of this study is to research the most effective dose of biochar amendment in benzo[a]pyrene contaminated soil in a model experiment with chernozem. The content of benzo[a]pyrene in soil was determi...

The exploitation of petroleum deposits in Romania within the ?icleni Petroleum Structure is based on the technological process consisting of drilling for exploration (exploration wells) or for extraction (extraction wells) in three phases. As a consequence of the direct or indirect discharge of crude oil and salted water, the quality of the soil and of the groundwater is affected by petroleum hydrocarbons, chlorides, gases and other organic compounds. Biodegradation is an effective method for decontamination of so...
