Bioremediation in Marine Oil Spills
Guidance Document for Decision Making and Implementation of Bioremediation in Marine Oil Spills
Abstract
The aim of these Guidelines is to provide users with clear criteria to enable them to evaluate the circumstances in which to consider the use of bioremediation for shoreline cleanup. These guidelines are not intended to address the treatment of waste-generated oil spills. They contain a summary of the most important bioremediation processes and decision-making criteria.
