[Ecological Transition from Micro-remediation to Ecological Regulation of Petroleum Pollution].

Abstract

Petroleum pollution has become a prominent global environmental problem, restricting the coordinated development of the economy and the ecological environment. Although bioremediation has the advantages of low carbon, high efficiency, and safety, the complexity and severity of the pollution makes it difficult to achieve the remediation purpose with a single bioremediation. Ecological remediation based on bioremediation can integrate carbon neutrality and ecological environmental protection, synergistically promote pollution reduction and carbon reduction, ensure the sustainability of soil and sediment to fulfil ecosystem service functions, and ultimately achieve soil health and sediment health. Therefore, the transition from bioremediation to ecological restoration is the optimal choice for environmental management and ecosystem maintenance at this stage. Here, we first analyzed the micro-removal mechanism of petroleum hydrocarbons in different bioremediation techniques and discussed the types and characteristics of different bioremediation techniques from an ecological point of view. Based on this, the necessity of bioremediation for ecological restoration was analyzed in detail. Finally, a reasonable outlook on the development of ecological remediation is given to provide theoretical support for optimizing ecological remediation of petroleum pollution.
