The present invention provides an enhanced biodegradation process by applying to petroleum-contaminated soil or water essential microbial nutrients in a form capable of releasing the nutrients over time at a rate which, at 25°C, is substantially linear. Importantly, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the microbial nutrients that are applied to the soil or water are in a form such that the release of nutrients at 38°C will be greater than that at 25°C by a factor of about 2.5 to 6.0, and preferably from a factor of about 3 to about 5Ø
L'invention porte sur un processus amélioré de biodégradation consistant à apporter aux sols ou aux eaux contaminés par du pétrole des nutriments microbiens essentiels sous une forme capable de les libérer peu à peu à une vitesse sensiblement linéaire à 25 DEG C. Point important, dans l'une des réalisation préférée, les nutriments microbiens apportés aux sols et aux eaux le sont sous une forme telle que leur libération à 38 DEG C soit de 2,5 à 6 fois supérieure (et de préférence entre 3 et 5 fois) à ce qu'elle est à 25 DEG C.
