Pollutants draining from the road in the form of road runoff are proceeding, untreated, into the soil and nearby bodies of water, like under-ground aquifers. The form of pollutant least filtered through natural means are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). These PAHs can have detrimental effect on the ecosystems surrounding the contaminated water bodies. Bioremediation of PAHs is the ideal procedure to solve this issue.
