Several studies have recorded effect of spent lubricant oil pollution on soil properties. This study aims at evaluating the ecology of waste oil pollution and the impact of phytoremediation on soil hydraulic conductivity vis-à-vis some edaphic properties using three leguminous plants; with the objectives of performing field and laboratory study of such contamination and impact of phytoremediation on such properties as soil texture and structure, particle density, bulk density, porosity, organic matter content and total hydrocarbon content and hydraulic conductivity. Using classical and conventional methods to assess the performance of these plant species, result showed a trajectory influence across pollution levels on the soil edaphic properties culminating to decrease in hydraulic conductivity. With the impact of phytoapplication P. pterocarpum had greater particle size (87.73%) of sand, particle density of 2.61 g/cm 3 with significant difference (P=0.05) than C. retusa and L. leucocephala treated soils. A significantly (P=0.05) lower bulk density (0.83 g/cm 3), increased porosity (68%) and reduced organic matter content (2.65%) were recorded in

“…After a contamination, and depending on the type and quantity of the petroleum products involved, the different physical-chemical properties of the soil and its stability can be negatively affected [5][6][7]. When these products contaminate soil and alter its quality, the plants will also be exposed to the pollutants, resulting in many potential negative effects.…”

In this work, we studied the effects of different types of soils contaminated with diesel on the germination and early growth of four plant species (Xanthium strumarium, Avena sativa, Daucus carota, and Cerinthe major). We used four potting soils that we contaminated with different levels of diesel: 2.5%, 5%, and the control (0%). The results showed that the effect of the contamination depends on the species. Thus, compared with the three other species, X. strumarium showed the best results. This species showed good germination rates, with a lower rate of 50%. Its root length and weight were stimulated in the contaminated soils, and its shoot growth was less affected than that of the other species. The results depend also on the soil type. X. strumarium showed the best results in the different types of soils; thus, in soil three, at 5% diesel, all species showed a germination rate of 0%, but X. strumarium showed a rate of 50%. Our study demonstrated the variation in diesel effects across different plant species and soil types. The four species showed different levels of tolerance that varied with diesel concentrations, soil types, and parameters. We recommend performing phytoremediation tests in soils contaminated with petroleum products using preferably X. strumarium, but it would be interesting to test the other species. Additionally, it would be interesting to test the tolerance of this species using seeds extracted from the burs, to investigate the role of the X. strumarium burs in its tolerance to diesel contamination.

“…Soil contamination by petroleum sources is one of the big challenges for ecosystem and human health. Exploitation, drilling, and accidental leakage of oil during transportation are common causes for soil pollution (Brakorenko & Korotchenko 2016, Sajna et al 2015, Varjani & Upasani 2017. Oil contamination has immensely negative impacts on the physicochemical and biological properties of soil (Kriksunov 2011, Osse et al 2018.…”

The impact of plants on soil enzymatic activity and their potential for remediation of oil-contaminated soil has been widely studied but information about tree species is scarce. Here, we used seedlings of four tree species (Ailanthus altissima Mill, Fraxinus rotundifolia Mill, Melia azedarach L. and Robinia pseudoacacia L.) to investigate rhizosphere effects on key soil enzymes (dehydrogenase, urease, alkaline and acid phosphatase) and to evaluate oxidative stress in response to oil sludge-contaminated soil (0, 100, 200, 400 g kg -1 ).We observed a large species-specific stimulation of soil enzyme activity often far exceeding the figures in unplanted soil with peaks mostly occurring under low oil contamination (100 g kg -1 ). The strongest stimulatory effect on dehydrogenase and urease activity produced by R. pseudoacacia at the low and intermediate and F. rotundifolia at the highest contamination level. No clear pattern emerged for acid phosphatase activity, which was equally stimulated by all species at the highest contamination level. Alkaline phosphatase stimulation was dominated by F. rotundifolia at the low and by R. pseudoacacia at the higher oil contamination levels. Foliar H 2 O 2 rose significantly in a species-specific manner in response to oil contamination, triggering an upregulation of the antioxidant defense, which began to show signs of exhaustion at the highest pollution level and revealed that oxidative stress was highest in A. altissima. Our results imply that phytoremediation efforts can be optimized through carefully designed plant species assemblages aligning stimulatory effects on soil enzyme activity and oxidative stress tolerance with the severity of the oil pollution.
