Methods used in remediation of oil contaminated soils

Abstract

Both in the world and in our republic, sufficient methods are used for the treatment of oil-contaminated soils, and the search for new methods and technologies is focused on as a priority direction. It is clear that when considering each method, its advantages and disadvantages are discussed. At this time, aspects such as environmental safety, economic efficiency, impact on human health and the environment, practicality and ease of purchase are taken into account during the use of that method. In this review article, the purpose of determining the advantages and disadvantages of the use of physical, chemical and biological recovery methods, guided by the world practice, was chosen as the goal of eliminating the problem. At this time, the main attention was focused on ecological safety and improving the state of the environment, for this purpose it was determined that bioremediation, especially the use of micromycetes in remediation, is more suitable for the purpose.
