  • Patent number: 5766928
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of removing contaminating hydrocarbons from regions which are subjected to extreme temperatures. The temperatures are generally outside the range of optimum growth of hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms. The method can involve the steps of contacting the region with hydrocarbon-degrading microorganisms, and adjusting the temperature of the region contacted with the microorganisms to optimize their growth.
