Molecular Biology of Sulfide-Oxidizing Nitrate-Reducing Microorganisms Involved in Microbiologically-Influenced Corrosion (MOLMIC)
Date du début: 6 janv. 2016, Date de fin: 5 janv. 2018,
Dr. Sven Lahme proposes to work with Prof. Ian Head at Newcastle University, UK, to study the Molecular Biology of Sulfide-Oxidizing Nitrate-Reducing Microorganisms Involved in Microbiologically-Influenced Corrosion (MOLMIC). Corrosion is a multi-billion Euro problem for the oil and gas industry. Microbiologically-influenced corrosion (MIC) in this sector is usually linked to souring of oil fields ...

Microbiology of Anaerobic Hydrocarbon Degradation in Petroleum Reservoirs (MICROBEOIL)
Date du début: 22 juin 2009, Date de fin: 21 juin 2011,
"Microbial activity in petroleum reservoirs over geologic time has led to the biodegradation of most of the world’s oil reserves. Geochemical evidence for in situ biodegradation is strong, but little is known from a biological perspective and current micobiological understanding is largely inferred from non-oil field environments. Incorporating microbiology into petroleum geoscience and engineerin ...

Bacterial dynamics and abundance; quantitative coupling of hydrocarbon degradation and specific bacterial communities (BACTOIL)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2008, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2010,
Industrial development has led to exponential increase in fossil fuel consumption. This has caused serious damage to environment and needs proper management. An understanding of the relationship between hydrocarbon pollution and microbial diversity will be useful for developing predictive and effective models for biological treatment of polluted environments. New molecular tools that provide a cle ...
