Proposed anaerobic hydrocarbon biodegradation pathways in oil sands tailings. The researchers now report that higher molecular weight n -alkanes (C 14 , C 16 , and C 18 ) are also degraded under methanogenic conditions in oil sands tailings, albeit after a lengthy lag (180 days) before the onset of methanogenesis.
