Application of a Yeast Biosurfactant in the Removal of Heavy Metals and Hydrophobic Contaminant in a Soil Used as Slurry Barrier

Application of a Yeast Biosurfactant in the Removal of Heavy Metals and Hydrophobic Contaminant in a Soil Used as Slurry Barrier

This work describes the application of a yeast biosurfactant in the removal of heavy metals and petroleum derivate in a soil used as slurry barrier using a triaxial permeability apparatus. Test specimens were prepared with soil and contaminants for percolation of the biosurfactant. The hydraulic con...
