Biostimulation of Hydrocarbon-Utilizing Bacteria in Soil Amended with Spent Engine Oil Using Citrullus lanatus and Citrus sinensis Peels Agro-Wastes

Yusuf, K^*, Yahaya, S.

Soil contamination by spent engine oil from mechanical parts of machines is a growing concern in many countries. Biostimulation of contaminated soil with agro-waste like Citrullus lanatus (water melon) and Citrus sinensi (orange) peels offers an environmentally friendly and cost-effective method for remediating the contaminated soil. In this study,...
