<p>A method of bioremediating an organic hazardous substance present in an aqueous environment having contained therein a microorganism is provided which comprises introducing into the aqueous environment a water insoluble, substantially nontoxic organic material. Further associated methods of bioremediating contaminated water using a tank containing a water insoluble, substantially nontoxic organic material are also disclosed. A tank (10) is provided which contains an amount of a water insoluble, substantially nontoxic organic material, such as a block of paraffin (12). Contaminated water (16), containing the hazardous substances to be bioremediated, is introduced into the tank (10) through pipe (14). The contaminated water (16) either contains, or has added to it, a microorganism. The contaminated water (16) is left standing in the tank (10) until the hazardous substances are bioremediated. The bioremediated water is then drained out of the tank (10) through pipe (18).</p> |
