“…Undoubtedly, the progress of biodegradation depends on the number of cells of bacteria capable of metabolising diesel oil as well as their activity [17]. Out of these two parameters, determination of the number of bacteria -changes in which may be precisely determined -is much simpler.…”

A mathematical model has been created describing the process of biodegradation of diesel oil. Data for model development were obtained from two previously conducted laboratory experiments. The correlation between the measured and calculated of the biodegradation of diesel fuel data indicates the existing connection between them. It was found that the proposed mathematical approach of the biological process showed similar direction and nature of changes occurring in these two data sets.

Despite the widespread availability of state-of-the-art biological techniques, remediation practitioners have been slow to adopt these technologies to assist in designing or indeed monitoring remediation strategies. In part, this is because practitioners are driven by cost and fail to see the benefit of emerging technologies, and in part because most companies have only a small portfolio of procedures available to them. Here, we review the component parts required to design a decision support tool, appraise one that the authors have developed and critically evaluate its application to case studies. If bioremediation is to become adopted, then it is likely to have to operate in parallel with other remediation methods. Furthermore, remediation strategies must couple effective technology with a transparency of information such that all parties (practitioners, developers and stakeholders) understand how decisions were reached.
