“…In addition, organic amendments improved bacterial count in rhizosphere which resulted in higher removal of hydrocarbons [27]. Similarly, the amendments immobilized hydrocarbons via sorption, which alleviated hydrocarbon toxicity, thereby enhancing microbial growth [30] [31]. The high HUB load in the amended soils could also be explained by a contribution of HUB from the substrates used for the amendment.…”

Soil contamination by hydrocarbons poses numerous environmental, health and agricultural problems. The degradation of these pollutants can occur naturally but very slowly. It is therefore generally necessary to stimulate this degradation by different means. Thus, this study aimed to improve the biodegradation of diesel and crude oil in a Ghanaian soil by biostimulation. For this, the sampled soil was characterized by standard methods and contaminated with diesel and crude oil at a proportion of 1% (w/w). Then, contaminated soil samples were supplemented with biochar-compost, poultry manure or cow dung at the proportion of 10% (w/w). Periodically, fractions of these samples were taken to evaluate the density of hydrocarbon utilizing bacteria (HUB) and the residual quantities of diesel or crude oil. The characteristics of the soil used show the need for supplementation for better degradation of hydrocarbons. The results of the study show that supplementing the soil with organic substrates increases HUB loads in soils contaminated by diesel and crude oil. They also show that the residual quantities of diesel and crude oil are generally significantly lower in supplemented soils (p = 0.048 and p < 0.0001 respectively). In addition, the study shows that degradation was generally greater in soils contaminated by diesel compared to those contaminated by crude oil, especially at the end of the study.

“…It is a full-scale bioremediation technology in which the size and location of the spreading operation are decided based on the application rate of pesticides to avoid concentrations that would be unsafe in soil, groundwater, or crops [30]. Since landfarming has the potential to reduce monitoring and maintenance costs, as well as clean-up liabilities, it has received much attention as a disposal alternative.…”

With the increase in the food demands of ever-expanding the population of our country, the tired use of fertilizers and pesticides in agricultural soil is quite common, which results in the contamination of cultivable soils. As our world is facing extreme challenges, using microbes for remediation is a pleasant moral alternative to remediate this problem and maintain the fertility and cleanliness of our soil, bioremediation is one of the best approaches where living microorganisms are used for the degradation of contaminants without causing any destructible effect on our ecosystem. The present review aims to describe the process of bioremediation strategies along with the challenges associated with evaluating the removal of contaminants from the soil environment.

“…Soil is a non-renewable resource providing several vital functions such as habitat for living beings, gene pool, carbon sink, storage and filtration of many substances, as well as providing food, biomass and raw materials for human activities [ 1 , 2 ]. Soil contamination is a global threat to the food chain, public health, water, and air quality [ 3 ]. Petroleum is one of the dominant energy resources worldwide; however, this is also a source of soil contamination [ 4 ].…”
