The best method to be employed when cleaning an oil spill in a lake is bioremediation because it is a natural process that destroys toxic chemicals other than just merely having them separated.

How can you get some bioremediation?

That is a very complicated questions because bioremediation has so many different meaning. For example, BioWorld Hydrocarbon Treatment is a form of bioremediation. They add microbes to an oil spill along with an enhancer to speed up the cleaning process. Some companies just add microbes and call that bioremediation, some just add a fertilizer (which can cause algae to bloom, which isn't good). So I would look up BioWorld's Hydrocarbon treatment! Look up their website.

Connect think of an example in which the use of bioremediation either has improved the environment or has the potential to do so?

An example of bioremediation improving the environment is the use of oil-eating bacteria to clean up oil spills, such as the Deepwater Horizon spill in 2010. Researchers applied specific strains of bacteria that metabolize hydrocarbons, effectively breaking down the oil into less harmful substances. This approach not only helped restore marine ecosystems but also demonstrated the potential for bioremediation in managing other contaminants, such as heavy metals and pesticides, in polluted environments. By harnessing natural processes, bioremediation offers a sustainable method for environmental restoration.
