Persulfate Oxidation Coupled with Biodegradation by <i>Pseudomonas fluorescens</i> Enhances Naphthenic Acid Remediation and Toxicity Reduction

The extraction of bitumen from the Albertan oilsands produces large amounts of oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) that requires remediation. Classical naphthenic acids (NAs), a complex mixture of organic compounds containing O<sub>2</sub><sup>−</sup> species, are present...
