“…was reported to be capable of utilizing n-alkanes of chain length C 10 -C 40 as a sole source of carbon [54]. Bacterial genera, namely, Gordonia, Brevibacterium, Aeromicrobium, Dietzia, 3Burkholderia, and Mycobacterium isolated from petroleum contaminated soil proved to be the potential organisms for hydrocarbon degradation [47,[55][56][57][58][59]. The degradation of PAHs by Sphingomonas was reported by Daugulis and McCracken [56].…”

This article is a state-of-the-art review on the aerobic degradation of petroleum components that are commonly found in the environment. Numerous microorganisms have been isolated and their phylogeny and metabolic capacity to degrade a variety of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons have been demonstrated. This review focuses on recent progress on how microbes degrade hydrocarbons and heteroaromatic components of petroleum contaminants directed towards better understanding of the aerobic degradation processes and their exploitation for bioremediation. The phylogenetic diversity of the oil-degrading microbes was also discussed.

“…Such loadings may occur through discharge of industrial effluents and through accidental release of raw and refined products. However, PAH released into the environment may originate from many sources including gasoline and diesel fuel combustion [11] and tobacco smoke PAHs are detected in air [11,12], soil and sediment [13][14][15][16][17], surface water groundwater, and road runoff [18][19][20][21] are dispersed from the atmosphere to vegetation [22] and contaminate foods [23][24][25]. Anthropogenic and natural sources of PAHs in combination with global transport phenomena result in their world wide distribution.…”

Petroleum oil contains a large number of poly cyclic hydrocarbons (PAH's) that are toxic to living beings. The complete degradation of petroleum oil required a population of microorganisms in the soil. In the present investigation petroleum oil contaminated soil samples were incubated with four bacterial strains (Mycobacterium sp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Alcaligenes faecalis and Enterobacter cloacae) to study the bioremediation efficacy. The soil samples were analyzed for soil reaction (pH), soil moisture content, soil organic carbon (SOC), available phosphorus (P), total petroleum hydrocarbon content (TPH), total bacterial count (TBC) and total petroleum degrading bacteria at the interval of 0 days (initial), 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks and 8 weeks prior and after treatment by bacteria. Values obtained reveals that there was a clear modulating effect of bacteria on above determinations. Maximum decrements in TPH (86%), soil pH (18.2%) and SOC (40%) were recorded in Pseudomonas aeruginosa inoculated samples.
