The concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and heavy metals were evaluated in
shallow sediments, water, fish and seabird samples from the Cispata Bay, Colombia. The …

Petroleum refinery wastewater treatment plants produce a significant amount of oily sludge,
a hazardous waste that requires proper disposal. It is necessary to develop technologies to …

The feasibility of a Fenton-type process for the pretreatment of an oily refinery sludge has
been explored taking advantage of the iron contained in the own sludge. This process …

Worldwide the generation of oil sludges is approximately 160 million metric tonnes per
annum. The washing of oil sludge with surfactant solutions can be used to recover the oil …

This study evaluated surface foam spraying technology, which avoids disturbing the soil, to
deliver chemical oxidant and oil-degrading microbes to unsaturated soil for 30 days …
