Figure 4From: A new model for the biodegradation kinetics of oil droplets: application to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of MexicoPredicted evolution of the conversion factor X of dispersed oil droplets with different initial microbial concentrations. The initial oil concentration is 0.4Â mg/L, the mean diameter of oil droplets is 100Â ÎĽm, and the CV value is 1.8.Back to article page
