Abstract<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

Bioremediation\u00a0has been proven to be the most effective method of cleaning up oil contaminated soils through the application of nutrients and microorganism to contaminated soils.<\/p>\n

Hence, this research was aimed at investigating the effects of particle sizes on bioremediation of crude oil polluted sandy soils. Six different soil samples were sieved using the B.S sieve sizes.<\/p>\n

The sieve sizes were classified into X and Y such that X is fine to coarse sand while Y is very fine to coarse sand according to U.S Bureau and PRA (Public Roads Administration) soil classification system.<\/p>\n

The soil samples were polluted\u00a0 with\u00a0 escravous sweet crude oil at a uniform rate of concentration under aerobic condition.<\/p>\n

Treatment commenced after four days using nutrients and microorganism. Soil samples were examined\u00a0 for physiochemical and microbial characteristics for a period of 42days.<\/p>\n

Introduction<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

In Nigeria, particularly in the Niger Delta regions; the soils found are mostly sandy soils in shades of different colours of white, brown, grey and red. Sands are cohessionless aggregate of rounded, subangular or angular fragments of more or less unaltered rock or mineral particles of size from 0.075 -4.75mm (Murthy,2009).<\/p>\n

The sand separates recognized are: very coarse, coarse medium, fine and very fine determined from\u00a0 the\u00a0 particle\u00a0 size\u00a0 distribution curve. The coefficient of uniformity which is an index value showing the\u00a0 average slope of\u00a0 grain size distribution in a soil depends on the gradation or distribution curve of the soil\u00a0 sample.<\/p>\n

According to Arora (2008), the larger the numerical value of coefficient of uniformity, the more the range of particles. Sand particles because of their size have a direct impact on the porosity of the soil. The high incidence and frequency of crude oil spill have been of great concern to Environmental Engineers in Nigeria.<\/p>\n

This has given rise to intensive\u00a0 research to\u00a0 find\u00a0 ways and means of generating information and data\u00a0 required\u00a0 to\u00a0 assist\u00a0 in bioremediation strategies of crude oil spills.<\/p>\n

Before any remediation strategy can be done successfully, a lot of information would be required to aid the process (Bidemi, 2011). This information is meant\u00a0 to\u00a0 assist\u00a0 in\u00a0 the detection of and response to oil spill incidence.<\/p>\n

Bioremediation is a means of cleaning up contaminated environments by\u00a0 exploiting\u00a0 the diverse metabolic abilities of microorganisms to\u00a0 convert contaminants to\u00a0 harmless products\u00a0 by mineralization, generation of carbon (IV) oxide and water, or by conversion into microbial biomass (Baggott, 1993; Mentzer and Ebere, 1996).<\/p>\n

In Nigeria, no\u00a0 information\u00a0 is\u00a0 yet\u00a0 available regarding the commercial production of fungi or microbial inocula for use in bioremediation of oil polluted environments.<\/p>\n
