Remediation technologies for historical oil waste

This paper reviews current technologies for oil waste treatment and the remediation of oil-contaminated sites. Case studies include the cleanup of historically polluted soils at petroleum companies using EGX cavitation soil washing, BioBox bioremediation, conventional bioremediation, and humate-based composite additives with energy-accumulating properties. Results cover oil content in contaminated soils, residual hydrocarbons in remediated soils, and the volumes of restored soils, reclaimed areas, and decommissioned sludge pits.
