Ohio Train Derailment Chemical Spill/Burn Data and info on Dioxin Detox and Bioremediation
Original article here.
Here is info I have gathered from some preliminary research on the viability of bioremediation (bioaugmentation, biostimulation, mycoremediation and phytoremediation) of dioxin contaminated soils and also researching what foods help with reducing the absorption and enhancing excretion of dioxin from the human body.
I want to share what I have so far incase this info can be helpful and bring some peace of mind to those who are being impacted by the massive chemical spill / burn due to the derailed train in Ohio.
I am seeing some promising data on both the human detox and soil bioremediation fronts. I am especially encouraged to find that a great many of the bacterium that have been studied for their ability to denature and dissolve dioxin are species that exist in thermophilic compost (and/or “compost tea”) (see a list of some of the relevant species here: https://www.mdpi.com/2305-6304/10/6/278#table_body_display_toxics-10-00278-t004 )
The studies I have found so far are listing a number of bacteria species which are prevalent in “hot compost”. There are also a number of fungi species (some of which are listed here: https://www.mdpi.com/2305-6304/10/6/278#table_body_display_toxics-10-00278-t004 ) which are effective in either breaking down or hyperaccumulating dioxin (after which the fruit bodies would be removed and isolated away from the soil/water).
Before we get into soil remediation research, here is some info on the that which need more immediate attention, mitigating the amount of dioxins that are entering your body and detoxifying the ones that are already there.
