Research progress of bio-slurry remediation technology for organic contaminated soil

Bio-slurry remediation technology, as a controllable bioremediation method, has the significant advantage of high remediation efficiency and can effectively solve the problems of high energy consumption and secondary pollution of traditional organic pollution site remediation technology. To further promote the application of this technology in the remediation of organically polluted soil, this paper summarizes the importance and advantages of bio-slurry remediation technology compared with traditional soil remediation technologies (physical, chemical, and biological). It introduces the technical infrastructure and its technological processes. Then, various factors that may affect its remediation performance are discussed. By analyzing the applications of this technology to the remediation of typical organic pollutant-(polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls(PCBs), total petroleum hydrocarbons(TPH), and pesticide) contaminated sites, the following key features of this remediation technology are summarised: (1) the technology has a wide range of applications and can be used in a versatile way in the remediation projects of various types of organic-contaminated soil sites such as in clay, sand, and high organic matter content soil; (2) the technology is highly controllable. Adjusting environmental parameters and operational conditions, such as nutrients, organic carbon sources (bio-stimulation), inoculants (bio-augmentation), water-to-soil ratio, etc., can control the remediation process, thus improving the restoration performance. To sum up, this bio-slurry remediation technology is an efficient, controllable and green soil remediation technology that has broad application prospects.
