Aim: Phytoremediation is the use of microbial and rhizosphere systems to clean up a hazardous waste making it environmentally friendly,potentially zero waste and cost effective. Study on phytoremediation of oil sludge using consortium fungi (Talaromyces sp., Cladosporiumsp.) and mycorrhizae Albizia sp (sengon) was conducted. This study was aimed at evaluating the ability of consortium fungi and mycorrhizae in reducing heavy metal (Pb and Ni), Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH) and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) contents in contaminated soil.
Methodology and results: Consortium fungi were inoculated into a compost medium containing 35% of oil sludge and monitored for two months and followed by planting mycorrhizae of sengon in the phytoremediation process. The changes of Pb and Ni, TPH, and PAH contents .. View More»
