Abstract

Main objective of this project is the design of a decision tree to be used in decontamination of PAH-polluted soils. Starting point is the hypothesis that PAH-degradation is dictated by their biological availability and external factors. A formalism will be made that can predict biodegradation of PAH's based on origin, history and intrinsic physico-chemical properties of the products.
