Evaluation of Kinetic Parameters of Crude Oil Remediation Using Bio-Stimuant of Mint Leaf (Mentha piperita)
Abstract: Kinetic parameters of crude oil degradation as related to total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) were evaluated. The experiment was set-up using crude oil, loamy soil polluted and addition of bio-stimulant (nutrient based substance). The depletion of the pollutant was monitored within the contact time of 7 to 35 days. At intervals of 7 days samples were collected and analyzed to determine the TPH concentration at each bioreactor set-up, through subjecting the …

Modeling the Biokinetic of Crude Oil Degradation inLoamy Soil Using the Citrus Sinensis of Flavedo Part
Abstract: The biokinetic parameters of crude oil degradation using Citrus sinensis of flavedo part was investigated in loamy soil environment. Mathematical models were developed for the purpose of determining the biokinetic parameters of the k1 (Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon), maximum specific rate of TPH remediation and dissociation constant of the TPH remediation on the effect of remediant dosage on the polluted loamy soil environment. The effect of the remediants were monitored for …

Comparative Biosorption Analysis of Chicken Feathers and Absorbent Pads on Crude Oil Contaminated Soil
Abstract: The study was done for the biosorption of hydrocarbon contaminated soil using chicken feather waste (CFW) and adsorbent pad adsorbents (AP). The adsorbents materials were sourced locally and prepared accordingly and made ready for the adsorption process. To analyze the adsorption of crude oil from contaminated soil, the following time intervals were used: 0 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, 15 weeks, and 20 weeks. Additionally, varying amounts of …

Performance Evaluation of Azadirachta indica Leaf on Crude Oil Contaminated Soils
Abstract: The intention of this research was to ascertain the effectiveness of sun-dried and room-dried Azadirachta indica leaf at varying quantities, in the remediation of sandy and loamy soils contaminated with 100ml of crude oil. Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry method was used to test for the physicochemical properties of the materials used for the experiment. The unpolluted loamy soil was observed to contain pH of 6.75, electric conductivity of 10.36µS/cm, Total Oxygen …
