Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Ecology
  • Enzyme

Richard Bartha focuses on Environmental chemistry, Petroleum, Biodegradation, Ecology and Microbiology. The Environmental chemistry study combines topics in areas such as Fuel oil, Mercury, Loam and Soil contamination. The study incorporates disciplines such as Waste management, Nitrogen, Microorganism, Adsorption and Nitrate in addition to Petroleum.

He combines subjects such as Hazardous waste, Bioremediation, Pollutant and Incineration with his study of Biodegradation. His Pesticide and Biogeochemistry study in the realm of Ecology interacts with subjects such as Energy source, Persistence and Soil conservation. His Microbiology research incorporates elements of Sedimentation and Dissolution.

His most cited work include:

  • Microbial Ecology: Fundamentals and Applications (1303 citations)
  • Hydrocarbon Biodegradation and Oil Spill Bioremediation (353 citations)
  • Features of a Flask and Method for Measuring the Persistence and Biological Effects of Pesticides in Soil (324 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Environmental chemistry, Biodegradation, Organic chemistry, Soil water and Mineralization are his primary areas of study. His Environmental chemistry research integrates issues from Microorganism, Soil contamination, Bioremediation and Hydrocarbon. His research in Bioremediation tackles topics such as Fuel oil which are related to areas like Loam.

His Biodegradation research includes themes of Sludge, Humus, Benzopyrene, Pyrene and Petroleum. His Petroleum study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sedimentation, Adsorption and Dissolution. He has researched Mineralization in several fields, including Soil organic matter and Benzopyrene.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (54.32%)
  • Biodegradation (33.33%)
  • Organic chemistry (13.58%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1992-2019)?

  • Environmental chemistry (54.32%)
  • Biodegradation (33.33%)
  • Mercury (9.88%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of investigation include Environmental chemistry, Biodegradation, Mercury, Methylation and Hydrocarbon. His studies in Environmental chemistry integrate themes in fields like Soil water, Humus, Pyrene, Benzopyrene and Mineralogy. His Soil water study incorporates themes from Biomass and Extraction.

His Biodegradation research is under the purview of Organic chemistry. His Mercury research incorporates themes from Methanogen and Anoxic waters. His research in Hydrocarbon focuses on subjects like Bioremediation, which are connected to Polluted soils, Toxicity, Waste management and Soil contamination.

Between 1992 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Biofiltration of methanol vapor. (225 citations)
  • Interactions between benzene, toluene, and p-xylene (BTX) during their biodegradation. (169 citations)
  • Mercury Methylation and Demethylation in Anoxic Lake Sediments and by Strictly Anaerobic Bacteria (166 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Ecology
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Methylation, Environmental chemistry, Mercury, Microbial consortium and Decomposition. His Methylation research includes elements of Propyl iodide, Biochemistry, Biological pathway, Serine hydroxymethyltransferase and Desulfovibrio. His work on Anoxic waters as part of his general Environmental chemistry study is frequently connected to Demethylation, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His Mercury research includes themes of Organic matter, Estuarine sediments, Ecotoxicology, Mineralogy and Aquatic environment. His work carried out in the field of Microbial consortium brings together such families of science as Toluene, Biodegradation, Organic chemistry, p-Xylene and Cometabolism. His Decomposition research integrates issues from Surface-area-to-volume ratio, Benzene, Methanol and Solvent.
