Abstract
Oil sludge is a viscous material consisting of resin, asphaltene, sand, and water, which is usually formed at the bottom of oil reservoir tanks. Asphaltene and resin contents of oil sludge make it more resistant to biodegradation. Disposal of oil sludge is the main problem of oil industry; discharge of oil sludge into the soil causes damage to the environment. Bioremediation is an efficient, cheap, and environmentally friendly method for...
