This invention relates to a method for enhancing the remediation of
petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated soil and synergistically improving
soil carbon sequestration using indigenous degrading
bacteria, belonging to the field of ecological
environmental protection and remediation technology. Highly efficient
petroleum-degrading
bacteria strains
Acinetobacter junii A2-1 and
Rhodococcus sp. A17 were isolated and screened from
petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated soil and deposited at the China General
Microbiological Culture Collection Center (CGMCC). The accession number for strain A2-1 is CGMCC No. 23724, and for strain A17 is CGMCC No. 23725. The A2-1 and A17 strains were prepared into a bio-enhancing agent, which was then inoculated into petroleum
hydrocarbon-contaminated soil in appropriate amounts to improve the degradation efficiency of petroleum hydrocarbons. Furthermore,
vegetation restoration synergistically enhances the soil's
carbon sequestration function. This invention not only accelerates the remediation process of petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated soil but also significantly improves the
carbon sequestration capacity of petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated soil, which is of great significance for the remediation of contaminated soil and the achievement of the "
carbon neutrality" goal.
