“…In industries and daily routine life, the petroleum based products are the important source of energy and mainly extraction, transportation, refinement, leakage becomes a harmful contamination issue across the world [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Petroleum hydrocarbons are combinations of numerous carbon bonds that made complex structures when they attached to each other such as aliphatic alkanes, alkenes and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.…”

Hydrocarbon compounds have been noted to reside the family of neurotoxic and xenobiotic organic pollutants and nowadays petroleum hydrocarbon compounds continually being a major natural worry because of the development of petroleum oil extraction and related products which have major ecological issue. Oil seepage normally happen by mishaps pumping, transportation and refining and petroleum products consist of carcinogenic and mutagenic compounds which could have several consequences on biotic and abiotic factors of the ecosystem. Mainly two methods such as mechanical and chemical methods are normally used to remove hydrocarbons from contaminated places have effectiveness and can be expensive. Bioremediation is the best and advance technology for the treatment of these contaminated places because it is not much expensive and will lead to whole mineralization. Microbial degradation is the major and ultimate natural mechanism by which one can clean up the petroleum hydrocarbon pollutants from the environment. Many indigenous micro-organisms in water and soil are able to degrading hydrocarbon contaminants. A number of limiting factors have been recognized to affect the biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons. This review summarizes the microbial degradation of petroleum hydrocarbons aerobically and anaerobically and various factors that influencing the process. It may be concluded that microbial degradation can be considered as a key component in the cleanup strategy for petroleum hydrocarbon remediation.

Phytremediation is considered to be a promising and environmentally friendly way to restore oil-contaminated soils. However, the multicomponent nature of oil pollution, its low bioavailability, high stability, hydrophobicity, and toxicity require a comprehensive approach to its implementation. The purpose of the study is to investigate the influence of different types of sorbents-meliorants and their complexes with remediation agents on improvement of the efficiency of phytoremediation technologies of oil-contaminated soils. The study established that the most effective plants for phytoremediation of oil-contaminated soils are Vicia faba var. Minor, Pisum sativum L., Avena sativa L., which are the least exposed to toxic effects of oil among the studied crops, and better adapt to the conditions of oil-contaminated soils. The influence of sorbent-meliorants such as glauconite, zeolite, sawdust, and sunflower husk on the process of phytoremediation of oil-contaminated soils (oil content 5%) was studied. It was proven that sunflower husk is the most promising and available agent for accelerating phytoremediation. The study examined the individual and combined influence of mineral fertilisers, biogenic surfactants of microbial origin, and humates on the growth of Avena sativa plants under conditions of oil pollution, as well as on the process of soil restoration. The best results are obtained by application of the above agents in combination with sunflower husk. This complex (sunflower husk + mineral fertilizers + surfactants of microbial origin / humates) has a positive effect on Avena sativa plants – reduces the rate of oxidative stress, which indicates an improvement in the adaptability of plants to oil-contaminated soil; growth parameters increase; plant biomass accumulation; the total content of chlorophyll a+b increases; and there is an improvement in soil properties by reducing the oil content in soil, reducing phytotoxicity, increasing dehydrogenase activity
