Abstract
Experiments were performed in high pressure reactors at 150 bar and room temperature to determine the biodegradation of 3 mineral oil components (decane, hexadecane and tetracosane) by a hydrocarbon-degrading bacterial strain. The substrate degradation, bacterial growth and oxygen consumption were investigated.
Purpose
Investigating the biodegradation of mineral oil components at high pressure and creating substrate degradation curves, oxygen consumption curves and growth curves.

Supplemental Information
Below is a list of parameters for each dataset: Schedler_2014.xlsx - biodegradation of decane, hexadecane, tetracosane - time (hours), colonies (cells per milliliter), chemical concentration (millimoles), oxygen (percent); Schedler-high_pressure_biodegradation.xlsx - pressure (bar), incubation time (hour), standard deviation (cells per milliliter), CFU colony forming unit (cells per milliliter), chemical concentration (millimoles); Valladares-TotalDataGraphs-Database.xlsx - time (hours), carbon dioxide (millimoles per liter), oxygen (millimoles per liter), delta CFU (colony forming units; |The growth curves were made by plate counting on LB-agar. The substrate degradation was measured by GC-MS (gas chromatograph mass-spectroscopy) in the liquid phase. The oxygen was measured online in the gas phase using a T1000 Hioxy (Ocean Optics) sensor.|High pressure reactors, GC-MS and T1000 Hioxy (Ocean Optics) sensor were used.|||
